ok..
I can help you sure no probs but it depends on how you have your setup at home..
1. How many items in your house require a internet connection??
Just your xbox 360 and pc going through your router?
2. Do you have DHCP enabled.. (automatically assign an IP address)
To get all your network info you should do this on your PC:
1. Click Start Menu
2. Choose Run and type 'cmd' (without the '') and press enter
3. type 'ipconfig /all' and it will list all your pc settings.
4. Jot down the following or take a screenshot:
- IP ADDRESS
- SUBNET
- GATEWAY
- DNS1
- DNS2
that will help us check out your setup a little more indepth.

okay so i just got home and tried using the router for my home pc and xbox360, currently i do not have it connected so i am unsure if it completely works or not. i am getting you my information and hopefully after i restart the computer with the router connected i won't have any problems.
that subnet mask address is wrong it should be like this

Personally i find the easiest way to setup a network is to set your ROUTER with a static ip address..
eg. 192.168.0.100 with subnet of 255.255.255.0
Then you can just set your XBOX 360 ip to:
IP: 192.168.0.1
SUBNET: 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY: 192.168.0.100 (your router)
DNS: Same as your pc dns. _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:
