Are you defintely applying the changes, and not forgetting to save them?

re-opened!!! booo

cannot believe this. everytime i turn off my pc or restart it, live stops working. So i have to configue the wizard again, then if i restart the pc, live stops working. its oka when i turn off the xbox, but i have to keep my pc running. once the pc gets turned off live will not find its IP address.

Anyone else had this problem, anyway to over-come it?

if no one knows what to do i will just configue the wizard every time untill my router comes in april but if anyone knows how to get around this... please tell me.

thanks

I'm connecting throgh ICS which caused me LOTS of problems - Have you updated your firewall recently? - I'm using ZoneAlarm myself and I found allowing outgoing port 37, 3074 UDP and 3074 TCP fixed all my problems (I think these are the port number, the support section on live will fill you in)

Before then my connection was pretty patchy

Get a modem/router combo - the solution to all your problems (yes, including that rash).
