Still can't get Xbox to go on XBOX LIVE via Powerbook.

"Ip Settings not detected"

"the network gateway could not be reached. Verify the IP Addresses match the settings provided by your ISP"

HOW DO I FIND OUT MY IP? Oops caps.

It requires a Subnet mask, an IP (for the actual Xbox) and a gateway.

Ive got INternet sharing on.

Thanks.

Subnet should be 255.255.255.0.
Gateway should be the IP address of the PowerBook.

I have no idea how the Internet Sharing works or how it hands out IP addresses under Mac OS X, so I can't tell you what IP address your XBox should be set to.

Have you tried setting up the XBox to configure this automatically? I know you can tell the XBox to "Detect settings" somehow -- have you tried this?

Yup, didn't work

So how do I go about finding my Powerbook's IP address?

Open System Preferences, then "Network." If you're using Panther, then the IP address should be displayed next to the type of network connection you're using.

The IP address of the XBox is whatever you want it to be... under a DHCP server situation, the DHCP server would give an IP address to the XBox.

Try 192.168.0.5 or 192.168.0.105.

How is your XBox connected to the PowerBook? Through a router, or is it a direct ethernet connection?
