I just installed my new linksys wrt 160n router and all of my laptops connect flawlessly, but of course my WET 11 wireless ethernet bridge is not seeing the WLAN signal. This means that I get no ip address connectivity from the xbox live. I made the ip static and set the security to non existant, I mean there isn't even a wep incription, I live in the boondocks and there's no one for miles. Long story short I just want to connect and I know i'm doing something stupid. Please just give me help on this matter. Thanks.

Im not too familiar with wireless networks, but shouldnt your IP be dynamic? I suppose that depends on your ISP service...is it DSL? Cable?

If you set it to static, then you need to input the proper subnet mask and gateway address for your router. Thats all I can think of off the top of my head.
