xbox live problems

having some problems with xbox live. i'm using a linksys game adapter to connect wirelessly to another linksys router. I always get the same error message when trying to playm:

"Xbox live is not responding, please try again later."

well, it's been about 2 months and still no luck. i've tried calling linksys, but I can't get through. any suggestions?

 

ok this is probably has to due with your security on your router.....open up internet explorer and type this ip
192.168.1.1
that is the default linksys ip
it will send u to the linksys setup then click wireless and mess around to see if u can get it to work.....

 

it wants a user name and password

 

well if u didnt change it when you installed the router it should be
admin for both user and pass....

 

i have changed it, not sure what it was when i first installed it

 

am i out of luck?

 

Personally I wouldn't recommend using wireless access for online gaming, especially over Xbox Live that seems a big laggy at times already. But if you want to get back in your router, you would have to use the pinhole reset on the back, hold it in for about 10 seconds then let go. Just keep in mind that will reset your Linksys back to factory settings. So anything you have setup in it will be gone. You may just wanna call up Linksys tech support. You can find their number on their website, www.Linksys.com. Also if you can, try connecting the xbox to your Internet modem without a router and see if xbox live works just fine. Then that way you would know if the router is your issue, or maybe the wireless. Good luck.

 

thanks, i'll try that

 

the only reason im using wireless access is I need my xbox in a room on the opposite side of the house from the computer

 

i know 2 people that use wireless gaming adapters and they work perfect i havent seen a problem with them yet........

 

are they using linksys though? ive always had a problem with their products

 

yep but the wireless gaming router is zoom not linksys.....

 

ok, well i tried resetting but that didn't work. i guess i'll just try to call them today. thanks everyone for your suggestions
