    Ive been trying to download the COD:WAW map pack for the last few minutes.
    It says this item is not available in your location. My 360 is plugged directly into my D-Link 635 and DHCP is enabled. Now my ISP is Permanet and my location gets picked up as U.K on some sights and Ireland on others. Any ideas?

    Hi mate

    I had similar problems when i came to live in Dublin from Australia and brought my AU xbox. Seems microsoft gets pissy about having hardware locked to certain regions and then trying to use marketplace from a different region. Your info says Kilkenny(Ireland) so you need an account thats based in Ireland.
    So is your hardware locked to a certain region?
    You need to make a silver account for the region you are DOWNLOADING from

    In my case I needed to make an Irish silver account so I can use it to download from Irish servers. You have to make the silver account online as a hardware locked xbox can only make account addresses for that region

    1. make an account on http://www.xbox.com/en-IE/worldofreals/default.htm and when you put in the details make it an address of the region that you are downloading from
    2. import this into your xbox and try to download it

    this is fine as the account downloads to the HDD and then any account on the xbox can use the map pack

    let me know how it goes
    sebastian
