Wireless Bridge woes :(

calex71

Ok I have a really annoying problem , after month of silverness with out issue i go gold to play some games and im hit with constant disconnects.

The setup: Provider is UPC 20mb standard set up netgear router down stairs , and im upstairs literally sitting on top of it as its directly below the pc (one thin wooden floor to go through) so i have my desktop wirelessly connected to that up here. and and using the standard bridge setup to connect the xbox to the pc and from there to live.

I'm running vista on the pc - native and open dns have been tried, 2 different wireless adapters have been tried on the pc , dlink and atheros. Internet on PC is rock solid and signal is 100%. The disconnects from live are pretty consistant in that it happens after 10 -15 minutes, if i exit to the dash it reconnects straight away :mad: firewalls etc have been disabled and anything else that may block stuff. OS was rebuilt 2 months ago and still the issue happens. Power saving is also disabled on the network adapters.

I've googled the **** out of this and got no answers .

The only other thing i have yet to try which is unlikely to work is that I have a Dlink access point i might or might not be able to configure on the pc to connect to the wireless network then slip into the xbox's ethernet port .

Note: using long cables or buying an xbox adapter are off the table im afraid

So any suggestions people

I use a powerline adaptor which gives me super sweet speed through the electricity system in my house. Might be worth a shot? Around €99 or so for two units but you could find cheaper.

I also have a static IP assigned to my 360 and pinholes through my router directed to my 360 static IP.
