    Router Firewall


    you are aware that there is a firewall in the router that could be causing this issue as well you might try logging into the router and disable the firewall just as a test to see if the issue levels out if so then you have isolated the issue and can re enable the firewall with a lesser setting that will allow sharing

    WAY WAY WAY Ahead of you. I have done all of this. I am now on hold with Microtheft as we speak (type). I have done everything I can do way beyond my understanding. My point is that it should not be this hard. Everyone I call to help me points their finger at one another and I am left holding the bag. Again I point out Apple does none of this. IDk why I am torturing myself like this I am so livid

    Ok Ok


    Ok OK I just came into the picture and I always start with the common simple stuff that usually is the root cause of most issues and work my way out from there.

    I have followed some of your other posts and it seems you are having several issue have you considered starting from scratch and doing a format and reinstall to get everything back to square one I think when you figure this out it will be some stupid little thing that got overlooked maybe not but that's what usually happens.

    Thank you so much for your quick responses. I just updated the firmware on my router so maybe that'll help. Who knows but it was old.

    Well for the past three years it has done the following.....

    It syncs up, allows me to play Video, then just loses the connection for no reason. The sound cuts and you just get video, you try to rewind and nothing doing. Then you just lose the connection. Windows Media Center Somehow works (EXTREMELY SLOWLY I MIGHT ADD) but sees nothing but sample media videos and pictures and nothing I downloaded or any of my music, no idea why.

    Then it just works again..... then it stops....then it works again......then it stops.....simmer for three years.

    Well if that's the case why have you been blaming Windows 7.... I would have bought a new router and replaced all cables warrantied the XBOX

    It actually was a combination of Vista and 7. I did warranty my Xbox, i DID purchase a new router and had my entire house rewired this year when I purchased it. I just got off the phone with XBOX (1800-4MY-XBOX) and after 2 hours of playign with things my computer doesn't even recognize my xbox. I believe I will reformat my computer with a clean install of 7. Why not right?
