Hi,

I have a wireless network set up to allow my 360 to conect to Live, and am trying to set it up so that I can share media between the two. I have WMP11 and have set everything up okay at the PC end of things (I think) but when I go to connect the Xbox to the media on the PC, it can't find it! I guess maybe a problem with firewall? If so I have no idea how to fix it!

Help!?

Tom.

try disabling any firewall software you have installed including the winxp built in one if you have winxp sp2. if disabling all firewalls fixes the problem then you know its a matter of configuring those firewalls to allow the xbox to access the pc.
