Hi you have all probably heard this before but how do i connect to xbox live with aol broadband? I get up to the DNS server part and then it tells me that it could not be resolved. I am using a crossover cable and internet connection sharing but still nothing works. Any help would be gladly appreciated.

Yup, enter them both manually and it'll save the settings. There are two DNS server addresses by the way.

Open up command prompt in windows and type

ipconfig /all

You'll find the DNS server location there.

I might be wrong, but to this day, I think AOL remains one of the broadband providers that doesn't work with XBox Live. AOL sucks camel's balls sacks anyway mate - you should goto a better provider like Pipex. :-)
