Please someone help me....i just bought a one year subscription to xbox live and it came with crimson skies, i have no ideawhat to do. I am starting a new account, and my dsl provider is earthlink. When i try to connect, it will say that that my cables ARE connected, but after that i get this message like "No DNS server addresses were recieved 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 information" What can i do to fix this? i went to xbox.com/connect and went to the earthlink page, and for earthlink you need the pppoe settings to have a username and password. I have those. But i dont know what to do, can someone help me?

Ok... move to the "settings" button at the bottom of the network trouble shooter screen.

It should then be self explanetory with the different advanced settings you can enter.

You should be able to figure it out easily form there...

Does the network in your house require a password to connect to it? Mine does, that's what was wrong with mine. You should try to find out if it has a pass
