Assuming that the XBOX is the only device connected to the ICS port,
then 1 x 255. If there are other devices, each must have a unique
IP address (that is, the XBOX can't have the same IP address as another
device). If you don't know and you pick something such as 27 you'll be
pretty safe.

It's not quite as simple as that. If there are other devices on the LAN,
they will probably get their addresses via DHCP, and you have to be sure
that the XBOX address is not in the DHCP address range.

So you have to find out what the DHCP range is, by logging on to the
router. You will probably discover that the DHCP pool starting address
is something like 192.168.1.33, and the pool size is 32. This means that
the highest possible DHCP address is 192.168.1.64 (64=33+32-1).

Then, as long as the XBOX address is above 192.168.1.64 (for example,
you could choose 192.168.1.70), you're in business.

Are you using a router or ICS? Based on your other post, and on Jack's
response to your post in this thread, I assumed that you're using ICS to
connect your XBOX. If so, your router's DCHP server has nothing to do
with the issue. ICS has its *own* IP address allocator, and it
allocates IP addresses in the range 192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.254.

*Do* you have anything other than the XBOX connected to the ICS port? If
you have a router, why are you using ICS in the first place (if, in
fact, you are)?

If you are using ICS, and this problem started after you installed
Windows XP Service Pack 3, see if this applies to you:

Perhaps instead of making disconnected posts, you should explain how
your *entire* system of computers, routers, XBOX, and other devices are
connected, what the problem is, and - most importantly - what error
messages you have received.

i sort of use both ISC and router. here is my connection: The XBOX 360 is
plugged into an ethernet cord which plugs into my windows xp panasonic
laptop, which wirelessly connects the the linksys wrt54g router, which
connects to my repeater, which connects the the ISP. i have also tried all
of the IP Address from 192.168.0.1 through 192.168.0.254. what i would really
like to know is where is the problem, the XBOX 360, the Laptop, or the
Router.
also: the wierdest thing is, on saturday, i went to a friends with my
harddrive to my XBOX 360, brought it back, plugged my XBOX 360 into my
laptop, and my XBOX Live worked...I turned the XBOX off, then turned it back
on, and i had the same problem. This leads me to think the problem is the
XBOX but i dont know for sure.
another thing: the day i upgraded my microsoft to service pack three was the
day my XBOX started failing the IP Confirm Test. i dont know what service
pack three did.

i sort of use both ISC and router. here is my connection: The XBOX 360 is
plugged into an ethernet cord which plugs into my windows xp panasonic
laptop, which wirelessly connects the the linksys wrt54g router, which
connects to my repeater, which connects the the ISP. i have also tried all
of the IP Address from 192.168.0.1 through 192.168.0.254. what i would really
like to know is where is the problem, the XBOX 360, the Laptop, or the
Router.
also: the wierdest thing is, on saturday, i went to a friends with my
harddrive to my XBOX 360, brought it back, plugged my XBOX 360 into my
laptop, and my XBOX Live worked...I turned the XBOX off, then turned it back
on, and i had the same problem. This leads me to think the problem is the
XBOX but i dont know for sure.
another thing: the day i upgraded my microsoft to service pack three was the
day my XBOX started failing the IP Confirm Test. i dont know what service
pack three did.

how do i log onto my router to see what the DHCP range is? Because i just
tried entering every number between 1 and 255 and none of them worked

Assuming that the XBOX is the only device connected to the ICS port,
then 1 x 255. If there are other devices, each must have a unique
IP address (that is, the XBOX can't have the same IP address as another
device). If you don't know and you pick something such as 27 you'll be
pretty safe.

It's not quite as simple as that. If there are other devices on the LAN,
they will probably get their addresses via DHCP, and you have to be sure
that the XBOX address is not in the DHCP address range.

So you have to find out what the DHCP range is, by logging on to the
router. You will probably discover that the DHCP pool starting address
is something like 192.168.1.33, and the pool size is 32. This means that
the highest possible DHCP address is 192.168.1.64 (64=33+32-1).

Then, as long as the XBOX address is above 192.168.1.64 (for example,
you could choose 192.168.1.70), you're in business.

Are you using a router or ICS? Based on your other post, and on Jack's
response to your post in this thread, I assumed that you're using ICS to
connect your XBOX. If so, your router's DCHP server has nothing to do
with the issue. ICS has its *own* IP address allocator, and it
allocates IP addresses in the range 192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.254.

*Do* you have anything other than the XBOX connected to the ICS port? If
you have a router, why are you using ICS in the first place (if, in
fact, you are)?

If you are using ICS, and this problem started after you installed
Windows XP Service Pack 3, see if this applies to you:

Perhaps instead of making disconnected posts, you should explain how
your *entire* system of computers, routers, XBOX, and other devices are
connected, what the problem is, and - most importantly - what error
messages you have received.
