Wireless failing MTU test + other scary problem...HELP!

    Hello everyone.

    Firstly, I have to acknowledge my own idiocy. I was moving some furniture around in my room and my Xbox 360 fell from my bed on to the ground, it was one of those slow motion moments. I thought it was secure etc but obviously not. After absorbing that sick feeling for a minute or two I tried to turn it on to be greeted with the red ring of doom. I did this twice but now it has started to work miraculously. However, the wireless adapter is no longer connecting to my network.

    The MTU stage of the test is failing. I don't really understand the explanation given on the Xbox as to what this actually means and was wondering if someone could help.

    Also, the video cable scart input into the Xbox (I'm sure I have the terminology wrong) has become slightly bent, does anyone think this will affect performance? I know this question is a long shot and just kinna putting it out there. If you don't like it, you can send it right back.

    Thanks a million for any help...

    Could any of you guys run a connection test on your wireless just to see if you pass all the tests so I'll know if it's a harware fault. Thanks...
