    Ok so heres the deal. Set up my wireless network two nights ago. Got it working perfectly. Didn't do anything to it. Then went to play my xbox today and it wouldn't go online. Tried the ds that is down too. Came on the computer and I can surf websites but cannot ping them. Anybody have any ideas?

    Is your computer also connecting wirelessly?

    Can you sucessfully ping your wireless router?

    Firstly, try powering down everything for a few seconds then power them up again, if it still doesn't work make sure there's no MAC address filtering enabled (or make sure all the devices MAC address's are registered).Also make sure there's no traffic seperaters enabled to block wireless devices from accessing wired devices and what router have you got?

    Ok heres whats happening now. I can ping the router and google.com now and surf the internet but I cannot ping my xbox on the same router which is also working online sort of hit and miss.

    Then also make sure that there is no wireless seperater enabled which blocks wireless devices from contacting other wireless devices.
