have you read any guides yet? Do you know any basic networking stuff?
You have to set up the Xbox 360 with almost the same network settings as the PC (except the IP address will be a little different)
example:
PC info is (get this by pulling up a command promt on the PC and typing "ipconfig/all" without the quotes)
it will list the IP, default gateway, subnet mask, and DNS servers. it will also tell you if DHCP is enabled.
IP = 192.168.1.100
write down everything from above screen. as the rest will all be the same.
Xbox you can make 192.168.1.105 ( the subnet mask, default gateway and DNS addresses will be the same for both the PC and 360)
you also need to list how you are connecting, wireless, into a router, into a modem, direct to PC and what type of cable you are using.

is it the Vista transformation pack? I have heard many problems like yours from people using it. I personally do not have Vista and will not switch to Vista until there is no other choice.

ok, is there any other ways, like is there a possiblity of gettin a wireless adaptor plugged in the xbox360 and other one into the livebox rather than using the long ethernet cable downstair.. thanks for help though..

yes, you can connect with a wireless router and wireless gaming adapter as long as they are Xbox Live compatible, which the box will tell you. Mine are both from Linksys and it works with my Xbox and my 360 just fine.
