I've been trying, with no success, to connect my Windows Vista PC to my Xbox 360. I'm using a router (Linksys BEFSR41 ver. 4.2) and both the PC and the 360 connect perfectly to the internet. The problem is, they don't detect each other. My firewall is the standard Windows Firewall and the settings are all as they should be. However, my 360 simply does not show up on the network, or when I go to connect it via Windows Media Center.

I've done some searching around and I've found that others have had similar problems (with the same router, mind you) but none of the threads I found ever came to any conclusion as to how to fix the problem or what to do at all. Can anyone help?
