Trying to connect Xbox 360 to a wireless access point?

AvaLANOnline — Sat, 02 Jul 2011 08:16:46 +0000

I’m trying to connect my 360 to an access point but I’m having some trouble. Quick overview:

We have a belkin wireless router upstairs but my xbox is downstairs. I don’t have a wireless adapter for the xbox but I have another router (that can be used as an access point). What I want to do is set up the access point to receive the wireless signal and plug the xbox into the access point so the xbox "thinks" its a LAN connection. The router I set up as an access point is a D-link wbr-2310.

I’ve uploaded some pictures (just click the following link then click either scan 1 or scan 2). Scan 2 is just showing the location of the equipment through the house, scan 1 is a diagram of what I’m trying to do (dotted line is wireless signal and solid line is LAN):

Any info will help! Thanks in advance!
@Brandon, I have a ps3 lol but I’m home for the summer and my brother has the 360
@Joe Macoosa, As far as getting to the menu you are reffering to, I know how to get there. The wbr-2310 can in fact be used as an access point.

I’ve gone to 192.168.0.1 (my routers ip – the one I am using as an access point) and set the SSID, password, channel to the same as my wireless router. I’ve updated to the latest firmware (1.05 for the d-link) and I Think eveything should be good to go.But when I plug it into the xbox, and go to network connections via the xbox, it asks for the PPOE information – I don’t really know what that is. I’ve put in the SSID and everything, but still not working.

I live in an apartment complex with many different wireless networks. I do NOT want to illegally use another’s wireless connection. However, I would like to know if there is a way to find the exact location of a certain network. Is this possible?

Thanks in Advance

Could a ADSL wireless router be used as a wireless access point?

AvaLANOnline — Wed, 15 Jun 2011 04:08:03 +0000

Hi guys,

Well I have a 2Wire ADSL wireless router (inclues the modem), hence I was wondering if its possible to use this device as an wireless access point and not using its modem part. I.e want to make an wireless access point with an external modem or a already existing network using a CAT5 cable. If not is their a way to convert this ADSL modem/router to a regular wireless router?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Widows Vista is not recognising my Ethernet Cable and is not connected to my network, any ideas?

AvaLANOnline — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 04:04:38 +0000

I purchased an Acer Aspire, when i plug my ethernet cable in, nothing happens, i have tested the cable on my laptop and it works, so its not the wire. On Windows Network Diagnostics it says "A cable is not plugged into the network adapter "Local Area Connection" " but it is definately plugged in. Comet(place of purchase) is refusing to exchange or give a refund on it, saying it is not their problem. Is it a faulty machine? Can i change anything in the settings to make it work? I need help becasuse i am at a total loss of what to do. Thanks in advance for your replies.

My brother and I have an xbox 360, both wireless and on xbox live. Is there an easy way to link Ad Hoc?

AvaLANOnline — Sat, 16 Apr 2011 12:40:46 +0000

He uses the official usb xbox dongle, i am using an ethernet wireless bridge. Both link to the internet through our homes wireless router. Can we link Ad Hoc to play system link games? I.e without going through xbox live? Also is there a way of doing this without losing the network details for the router? I’m asking because its possible to play using two controllers per console whilst playing COD 4 i.e four player multiplayer. Many thanks in advance

Any way to user my laptop as a hotspot for a wired ethernet and wired dial-up connection?

AvaLANOnline — Tue, 01 Feb 2011 03:56:03 +0000

I’ve got a laptop which connects wirelessly to my home network. I’ve got a couple devices which need to be plugged in via ethernet and dial-up. My laptop has both ethernet and dial-up ports, so I’m wondering if there is anyway to hook up those devices into my laptop and somehow get an internet signal through ethernet and a dial-up signal through my dial-up port.

Thanks in advance.

Looking for an external network hard drive to connect to my network through ethernet.?

AvaLANOnline — Mon, 31 Jan 2011 02:50:25 +0000

I am retiring my first office computer. Its recent purpose is nothing other than acting as a network harddrive. My network guy has suggested that I get a 500 gb external network hard drive and connect it through my switch to the network. I am looking for something that is easy to use and gives quick access to files (similar speed to accessing docs from a local computer). I am not to concerned about the cost, within reason. I would appreciate any suggestions for a good product. I would also appreciate advise as to whether I should get a 1TB that mirrors,or just a 500GB. Thanks in advance.
