english Cable/DSL Modem Direct Connection Choose a direct connection if you want the easiest way to set up and play, and you don't want to share your Internet connection with your PC (or other device). To set up a direct connection: 1 Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your high-speed modem and the other end to the Ethernet port on the back of your Xbox 360 console. 2 Follow the instructions onscreen. You may need to enter information provided by your ISP in the System area of the Xbox Dashboard. 12 Cable/DSL Modem Router PC Router Connection Choose a router connection if you want to share your Internet connection with your PC (or other device), your high-speed modem supports an Ethernet connection, and you want to be able to play on Xbox Live whether your PC is on or off. To set up a router connection: 1 Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your high-speed modem and the other end to the WAN or Uplink port on your router. 2 Connect an Ethernet cable to an Ethernet LAN port on your router and the other end to the Ethernet port on your PC (or other device). 3 Connect an Ethernet cable to an Ethernet LAN port on your router and the other end to the Ethernet port on the back of your Xbox 360 console. NOTE Some modems and devices may require a network hub instead of a router. 4 Follow the instructions onscreen. You may need to enter information provided by your ISP in the System area of the Xbox Dashboard. Troubleshoot Your Connection 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 (ISP's) 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, see "Troubleshooting" or www. xbox.com/setup. Sign Up for Xbox Live To create your account, select the option for Xbox Live from the Xbox Dashboard and follow the instructions on the screen.
