GatewayConnection
Choose a gateway connection if your ISP has
supplied you with an Ethernet gateway
device. Like a router connection, you can
share your Internet connection with your PC
(or other device) and play on Xbox LIVE
whether your PC is on or off.
To set up a gateway connection:
Connect your high-speed Internet
1
connection to your gateway (using the
coaxial cable jack for cable providers or
telephone jack for DSL providers).
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to an
2
Ethernet LAN port on your gateway and the
other end to the Ethernet port on your PC
(or other device). Follow the instructions
from your ISP to use your PC's browser or
software to configure the gateway, then
verify that your PC is connected to the
Internet.
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to an
3
Ethernet LAN port on your gateway and the
other end to the Ethernet port on the back
of your Xbox 360 console.
Follow the on-screen instructions. You may
4
need to enter information provided by your
ISP in the System area of the Xbox
Dashboard.

If your Xbox 360 console cannot connect
automatically, you may need to manually
configure your network settings in the Xbox
Dashboard. Some Internet service providers
(ISPs) require specific settings, including host
name, MAC address, and ISP user name and
password (for PPPoE authentication). If you
are unsure about whether you need this
information, check with your ISP. For more
information, go to www.xbox.com/setup.
