    I'm pretty sure you'll find all the info you need it the thread that's already stickied at the top of the forum. I may be wrong. The process should be very similar, except replacing your dongle's connection instead of the wifi connection.

    Thanks, yeh, funny it worked up to a point when I downloaded the new operating sytstem for xbox live, then for some reason it wouldn't hook up online.
    I'll turn off mcafee like you suggested, I also have microsoft security essentials turned on but I think that only scans for stuff ( doesn't act like a fire wall, I think.)
    thanks for the suggestions.
