Three weeks ago I got an E74 for my Xbox (2006 arcade version) and my warranty ran out. So I went and brought a new Xbox arcade counsel and there are serious problems with it. I constantly lag out of parties and cannot reconnect, the xbox dashboard freezes and game both online and offline lag. I use a wireless signal but testing the connection I get all 5 bars. The only thing that I can think is maybe my xbox wireless network adapter, which sometimes turns off since buying the new Xbox.

E74 is an internal hardware failure error. I doubt it's your Wireless Network Adapter.

yeah e74 can either be your a/v cables, chipset or GPU crashing, the cables dont make sense in this instance but either of the other two problems could cause everything you've listed, take it back to where you got it and get a new one. if I had to guess I'd say you got yourself a refurb console that wasn't refurbed very well.
