Connecting xbox to pc problems

    Hi,
    Trying to connect xbox to pc. House is wired with magnet cat v cable through a proprietry router which I have limited access to. Was initially having problems with my mcafee firewall which I've disabled. My pc used to detect the xbox but now it doesn't even when I try to install the extender software from microsoft. Would love to figure this out and be able to stream media over the network.
    Anyone any ideas? I have the windows firewall enabled now

    Gotta be more specific. Tell us exactly what kind of router you have, what settings you have enabled on it, if you've opened the correct xbox live ports in your router... also, make sure you are using TVersity instead of Media Center... you'll have less connectivity problems.
