Default More Xbox Problems

Ok, so after I asked for your advice , I managed to get it connected to "live" through my PC and my network hub. The problem I have now is that betwwen about every half an hour to an hour the "live" connection drops even though the adsl connection on the PC is still connected.

any ideas ??

I have a similar problem as I use ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) for Xbox live through a network card in the pc.

The connection usually fails when the wife uses the pc to surf or send email at the same time, so the cpu gets 100% loaded, outlook takes all the bandwidth and I then loose my xbox live link.

That why I've ordered a wireless adsl router modem so I miss out the pc all together.

I had exactly the same problem when I was using my old Actiontek router. I switched to a Linksys one (54g wireless) and haven't had a problem since
