Hey, thank you for the software. Maybe you can help me with another issue on the X Box side.

When testing internet connection there are 3 steps Xbox 360-Network Network-Internet Internet-FUN! LOL

Well, for some reason, when I test the connection, I get an error on the first step, how can I tell if it's seeing the laptop as a now-shared connection or if it's just a busted ethernet cable?

I look online and found that it IS in fact an ethernet, no crossover, but on it it says Cat .5 (not sure if there should be a space there) is it Cat 5 or less than Cat 1? Would that even affect its not seeing a connection, or would it just limit my connection assuming it was working in the first place?

Any ideas to get me started would help a lot, and again thanks for the previous help.

Also if you're familiar with the 360's manual network configuration settings, what would I want these settings to be relative to the laptop (which it's now directly connected to) or the router (which it's connected to through the laptop's forced ICS, which in turn is connected via WiFi)?

IP Address Subnet Mask Gateway

and do I mess with DNS settings, PPPoE Settings, or Advanced Settings which includes host name and Alt. MAC address?
