I curently have a pc connected to a wireless router via ethernet cable, and my xbox is connected with a wet11 wireless bridge. Now the bridge is working and the its setup can be accessed through my PC and I can ping the bridge, but I cannot access the Xbox or even ping it as it says 'net destination unreachable'. Media Center will not access IMDB etc, but Xbox watch sychronised the time through the bridge, so there must be an internet connection going on. How can I get my PC to see my xbox? I'm using a xenium chip with Evox.
Any help would be appreciated and if you need more information about the setup please let me know.

Thanks for replying.
I do have flashfxp and when I used to use a crossover cable it worked fine, now it can't connect, but then if I can't ping the xbox it probably can't see it either.
confused.

Interesting situation...
Its weird that xbox watch would sync but nothing else is working...
I would first check your router and bridge to make sure they are on the default 192.168.0.x ip range and 255.255.255.0 subnet, if you differed from those the xbox might be having problems with that.
also verify the ip settings on your dashboard or xmbc.
does the setup with the retail bios, retail game and xbox live work?
does the bridge work with other computers?
let us know what happens..
step from linksys's webpage:
The steps below will allow an Xbox console to play Xbox Live games wirelessly over a broadband internet connection using the Linksys WET11 & a Linksys BEFW11S4 Wireless Router.
1. Make sure you have installed the Xbox Live Starter Kit (sold separately).
2. Connect the WET11 to your PC with the provided network cable. Make sure the switch on the WET11 (labeled X - ||) is in the X position.
3. Connect the power cable to the WET11's power port.
4. Insert the Setup Wizard CD into your CD-ROM drive.
5. The CD should automatically run the WET11 Setup Wizard.
6. The first screen will be the Welcome screen. Click the Setup button to continue.
7. The next screen will show the types of networks on which the WET11 will operate. Click the Next button to continue.
8. Select the appropriate WET11 from the next screen, which will display all WET11s in your network, and click the Next button.
9. Enter your Password in the following screen.
10. Select your type of wireless network on the next screen and click the Next button.
11. On the next screen, enter your network's SSID, select the channel upon which your network is broadcasting its data, and assign the WET11 a "Bridge Name". The SSID and channel have default values of "linksys" and Channel 6. The Bridge Name is how your network will identify the WET11. Click Next to continue.
NOTE: All points in your wireless network must have the same SSID.
12. Your choice on the next screen will depend upon whether your network uses a DHCP server to assign IP Addresses or not.
If your network uses a DHCP server, select Automatically Obtain an IP Address (DHCP) and click the Next button. If your network does not use a DHCP server, select Set IP Configuration Manually and enter an IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway appropriate for the WET11. Then, click the Next button. _________________ XBOX v1.3
