I am trying to connect to xbox live through my Vista PC. I connect the Ethernet cable to my xbox to the back of my PC. I can browse the web through my PC, but my xbox cannot connect Live. I have already enabled my ICS, and my Local Area Connection only has local connection not internet. The IP Address fails when doing the Live test. When i look at the Local Area Conncection properties, the IP Address for it is a 169.254.x.xxx address. I Even tried to manually set it, but to no avail. Can anyone help me? Thank you very much.

Are you trying to use xbox live through the Wireless of the computer? Because for that, you either need a cross-over cable connected from the xbox to the PC, or you need to go into the Network Connections, and select both your Local Area Connection and Wireless Connection, right click on one, and click Add To Bridge!

Basically you need to make a bridge between the Ethernet and the Wireless, so the Xbox can get online!
