My cousin has been trying to get on live since yesterday but there's a problem. All the cables are hooked up but the Xbox keeps saying NO DNS SERVER ADDRESSES WERE RECEIVED FROM THE DHCP OR PPPOE SERVER. ENTER THE DNS SERVER(s) PROVIDED BY YOUR ISP IN THE NETWORK SETTINGS MENU. SEE WWW.XBOX.COM/CONNECT FOR MORE INFO. He got Broadband yesterday to play on live but can't. Any tips to help the problem?

This happened to me. Tell him to turn off the computer while he plays Live. That should work. Simmons out.

Cool, tell me if it worked for him. It's the only way it works for me. One would also suggest buying a router.

..... I'm at a loss of words. Maybe Recon or stosh could help, but..... I dunno.

Take a look at this page of the XBOX site, maybe this will help.

Sorry to tell me, or sorry to tell him. Because I could care less if it is crap, I just figured he didn't have it connected properly.
