Xbox Live wont connect after update

    Im using the xbox wireless network adapter to connect with the wifi i have at home. I got it to connect using a wep but it said it needed an update so i did. After the update however my network settings were gone and i cant find the area in the setup where you insert the wep. Any help would be appreciated, I tried following the sticky but found it too confusing and seeing as i had already connected i think must be a simple problem.

    You might need to enter your wep key again.
    Try testing your xbox live settings again and then if it fails there should be an option to press x or y that will bring you to your network settings. Try it agian see if that helps.

    See thats the thing. In the old setup there was an option to enter the wep and now I cant find any. Thanks for your reply.

    After it fails, does it not give you the option of x/y being network options?
    Go to the my xbox "blade". Scroll to the end, it should have system settings. Go in there, network settings, and you should be able to do it from there. Bit hard to remember sitting in work. If I had the xbox infront of me Id have more of an idea! :D

    Thanks for your reply. Y gives me a status of the error. When i go into network settings and try and configure its asking for ip and dns and all that stuff. I think in the old setup in network settings it gave me an option of entering a wep in the area asking for basic and advanced settings. I haven't been able to make xbox live account yet as I haven't been given a chance to register, however I was able to connect to the internet in order to install the update but it wiped my network settings. I think i might be able to enter the basic settings, would that be enough to get connected to the wifi in my house?

    Tried the basic setting didnt work. Basically, whereas before I saw an option that let me connect through wireless now after the update and new xbox dashboard, there is none.

    I'll have a look when I get home mate. I know there is a way of getting it. Hopefully someone will come up with the answer first anyway :D

    Right. Go to the my xbox section. Scroll to the end. System settings. From there go to network settings. Configure network. While on basic settings press a. Scan for networks. Your wifi should she up here. Enter it. It'll ask for your wep key. Hopefully that does it for you.
