Connection problems

    My Eircom Netopia router was fried last week in a lightening storm, and I've got a new one and have now re-established my network, but I can't seem to get XBox Live back.

    When running the network tests on the console, it shows that it is successfully connecting first to my home wireless network, then to the Internet, but it fails when it tries to go from Internet to XBox Live. What could I be missing?

    When you get that far look for extra details somewhere like something specific that failed.
    Here, this should help:

    Was a stupid thing - the Netopia's firewall settings were defaulted back to Medium. I turned off the router's firewall and Live works fine now!
