Hello,

I am trying to connect my xbox 360 to my laptop since a week now with no luck.
Windows Vista home is the program on the laptop. The connection is established through the xbox 360 wireless network adapter and a netgear router.
The xbox 360 live is running through the same network my laptop is - I checked through pinging the IP, and the xbox is also listed in my WMP11 as allowed device for media sharing and is listed as a device in my network and sharing center-. So my laptop can see the xbox, but the xbox can't find my laptop. I opened all the firewall ports and have no second firewall running.
Any ideas what the problem might be? I am thankful for every suggestion!
