well i tried it for you frequency and I had probs with my router setting up. it is a linksys and it did not work. ive yet to figure out what the prob is as it should be working. i may have a bad router but i am not sure as of yet. I will keep testing different network techniques and see if i can get it going. As of now i am in the same boat as you with this second ip crap. I have to recheck my cables and put a tester on them to see if i am getting a signal. hopefully it is just a bad cable. I checked all of the settings for the xbox configurations and it all looked good so i will keep trying. I would be able to get to it again til later next week due to work but it has to work. i have the Network Everywhere 4 port cable/dsl router, model # nr041. i will keep you posted here and let you know before you go and spend the money only to find out it dont work. i will be back at it on tuesday 8/17/04. let you know more then.

thanx crazygamelover for ur trial and error on the router option. if it doesnt work for some reasn..oh well..at least u tried and i'll just stick with my 2nd ip address dilema sense i need it so that my xbox has an ip address to upload my games to the pc using flashxp. althought i got to admit...it is hella slow..28kbs but i guess its better than nothing.
u seem to have ur whole house all networked...as for me i would like that but then my house would like a spaghetti factory....too much wires, and wireless is too rich for my blood right now. and i will wait for ur results when u get back...thanx again.

No go man! Either i missed something or maybe my isp has a router block somehow. I bet thats what it is cause I have tried just about every config i can think of. I even tried to put 2 network cards in one pc and run a network off of that just like a homebrew network and its still a no go. Its got to be the Cable companys doing. I have just about used every network trick in the book and it is gettin' somewhat agravating. I am a very persistant person too so you can just imagine the time i have been havin'
 Oh well I gave it my best shotz and it wont go for me so I will stick with the second ip for now. If you do get yours to work or someone knows a trick i didnt try, let us both know. Is it possible to stop a piggybacked signal through a network like that, or stop a router from being used? There must be a way to get this to work cause this extra ip $$$ should not be required. Edit: Maybe the xbox itself has something to do with this. ??? Anyone here got theirs networked without a second ip fee? Either thru comcast or charter cable companies?

well thanx for trying to crazygamelover....but i bet my bottom dollar ..its the cable companys doing..just to steal an extra buck from us. b4 i had cable, i had dsl...and i could run multiple pc's and my xbox simultaneously without no hassle...and now that i switched over to cable..comcast*cough* there ripping me off by assigning me a 2nd ip address just for my xbox...that licks ass..but oh well. as for me at the moment i'd rather pay the extra bucks for the ip address than to get involve with something that is gonna give me headaches and frustration.....lol. and guess what ever sense i got comcast and the 2nd ip address for my xbox...whenever i ftp to my pc ..wether it be games or software..my upload to and from my xbox is at a snail speed of 28kbs ...but b4 i had cable...my upload speeds were way more than..alot more. For madden it now takes me me one full day to upload (2.72gb) or something like that. if thats the way it has to be ...then so be it.

for the time being anyway
 I will try again when i consult with my friend who taught me all of my network tricks. If i ever get it too work, i will let you know. Who knows, maybe someone here knows a thing or 2 about it and can help us both out. Either way i guess its the 2nd ip for now.  Keep ya posted if there is any change.
