I want to be able to be online with my pc and the 360 at the same time so i got a router.It works fine for the pc but doesnt connect the 360 to live.When i run the test it keeps saying that the DNS failed.I would really like to know what is up with this cause i'm tired of having to leave in the middle of a good online game just because someone wants to get on the pc internet...And by the way, the router i'm using is both wired and wireless so i would also like to know if i would have this same problem if i was to try connecting the 360 using the wireless connection.

Sounds like you have to change some settings on your router. I can tell you now, if it doesn't work wired, don't bother trying the wireless. You'll be out the cost of the wireless adaptor. First things first, though, you should check the xbox.com webpage and see if you happen to have a router that is known to not work with live. There are a few of them (an unsettling amount, actually). If your router's not listed, then M$ takes no responsibility for it, that I can assure you of.
