WRT54G, Windows 7 Home Premium & XBox 360: anyone able to stream media?

I had no problem previously on XP streaming media from my PC to an XBox  360. However, with Windows 7, i find that even though the network map on PC shows the XBox 360, the PC only occasionally shows up as accessible on my XBox 360 - and as soon as I try to browse to media, I lose the connection.
Has anyone else had luck with te above combination?
Thanks,
P.

Honestly, I've gone through every possible troubleshooting guide in the last 6 months. The symptoms are entirely random; sometimes I can connect to the PC, sometimes I can't, sometimes the XBox cannot see the PC at all.
I have a feeling that the WRT54g (7.2.0.1) is simply not compatiblw with XBox 360 and with Windows 7 Home Premium, and I've been unable to find anyone else who actually uses this combination.
If anyone else is using this combination, please let me know.
P.

  • Can I change the OS of Touchsmart 610 from Windows Home Premium to Windows 7 Pro?

    I have 610 1100me system loaded with Windows Home Premium 64 bit.  We bought it from Dubai and is in use in Pakistan.  It started giving problems after few weeks of use.  Its' hard disk makes noise and sometimes, system could not find boot disk.  Most of the times blue screen of death and hanging issues.  Any idea about this issue and how to fix it?  My observation is that the culprit is hard disk!
    Also, can I change its OS to Windows 7 Pro or ultimate (32 or 64 bit)?  Where can I find all drivers for Pro or Ultimate?
    Many thanks for your valueable advice.

    Hi,
    Nearly nothing change interms of drivers required for Windows 7 (HP, Pro, Ultimate) unless you switch from 64 to 32 bit. You can reuse your current HP 64 bit drivers for 64 bit W7 Pro or Ultimate.

  • WRT54GS Wont support Two XBOX 360s online at the same time

    Just bought new Linksys WRT54GS to support two XBOX 360s live simultaneously.  Can't log both on at same time. It kicks first 360 off when second one tries to log on.  How can I fix this and have both NAT types open?

    I'm having the same issue.  I have comcast as ISP, Linksys modem BEFCMU10 V3, going to a Linksys router WRT54GS V4, two desk tops hardwired to the router, TiVo with a wireless and two Xbox 360s with Xbox wireless adaptors.  Each Xbox 360 has a different Live account, one has mine the other has my daughters.  Either by itself goes live just fine but as soon as the second unit is brought on the first kicked off.  If left on they will take turns dropping off from Xbox Live.  One night we alternately texted/chatted from both of our Xboxs to the same third party.  When he had signed off for the night and showed be "offline" on my unit my daughters unit still showed him "online" until we shut her Xbox off.  In addition the NAT always seems to change.  Some times its open, others it's medium or strict.  This seems to be related to having one or both Xboxs on.  I found an article on segmenting your network by using two wireless routers and running the Xboxes through the router closest to the modem and everything else through the second down line router.  I haven't tried it yet.  Anything I'm missing?  Something else I should try?  I've talked to the Geeks and some tell you can't so it and others tell me sure it will but they want $$.  I've talked to other gamers that tell they've had two Xboxs on Live with no problem.

  • How do I re install windows home premium OA?

    I had windows home premium OA on my computer , but I believe it was accidentally uninstalled from my hard drive.  I have the product key that is on my computer.  I was having trouble finding the correct link to reinstall it on my lap top. 
    When I went to the microsoft Website all I found was support for windows 8 .  Can you give help me with the proper link? thank you

    Please provide the manufacturer and model of your pc.
    It is possible you have a hidden recovery partition on your hard drive which may be used instead of a recovery disk to restore your system (and Windows) to factory defaults.
    Recovery procedures vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.
    You should also search for any recovery disk/s that were supplied with your pc. Manufacturers invariably charge a significant fee to supply replacements.
    If you decide to use borrowed/downloaded media to reinstall Windows on an OEM pc, the process may not be straightforward. Without some experience and patience you may end up with no other option than to pay a professional to finish the job.
    Microsoft does not publicly provide download links for Windows. While you may stumble upon an official download source, beware that many unofficial sources will come pre-loaded with viruses, trojans etc.

  • WRT54GS / Vista Home Premium / Media disconnected Problem [NEED HELP]

    Okay, I of course own the Linksys WRT54GS
    My wife's HP laptop connects wirelessly runs Visa Home Premium and usually auto connects to the wireless network.
    Our network shows it is available, excellent strength, when she clicks to join a network, it acts like it is going to connect then "Windows can not connect to network"
    She tried to diagnose and repair to correct the problem in Vista and "Can not correct more than one problem at a time" This is strange because she is not trying to correct any other issue.
    I had her connect using the ethernet cable and she is able to get online.
    I own a Gateway laptop that runs XP Pro and I am able to connect to the router via wired or wireless with no problem.
    I am also able to connect wirelessly with my iPod touch with no problem.
    Can anyone help me with this issue?

    Click start >> Control Panel >> Network and Sharing Center >> Manage Wireless Networks, here remove all the networks present and close the Window...
    Click on Connect to a Network and try to re-connect to your Network, it should ask for your Network Key/Password, enter the correct password/network key and click Connect...
    It should connect...Once you are connected you should restart the computer, it should connect to Internet...

  • WRT54G v6 - Troubles connecting XBOX 360 to XBOX Live?

    I just purchased a new XBOX 360 and I'm finding that I can't connect to XBOX Live using my WRT54G v6 (firmware version 1.01.1).
    If I connect the XBOX 360 directly to my DSL modem, I can connect to XBOX Live. 
    If I try to connect the XBOX 360 to the WRT54G v6 (using either a direct ethernet connection, or using the XBOX 360 Wireless adapter) I can't connect to XBOX Live.
    When I run the diagnostic tests on the XBOX 360, all of my connection tests pass with flying colours.
    Has anyone else had this problem?  How do you fix it? 

    hi, i have just recently bought the wireless adapter for the 360, and i keep getting boot off xbox live when ever my brother turns his PS3 on or off. even when a house call is made or comes in i get booted. if my brother doesnt turn his PS3 on or a call doesnt come in or go out, i can play fine, but once one of those happens i get booted. noone knows what i can do, xbox told me to call linksys, i was never able to talk to a real person on the phone, just machines. does any one have a clue??? i was told to change my NAT, but it's open, so i dont know what to do.

  • Laserjet 4240n driver does not work with windows home premium 64 bit

    I recently was given a HP laserjet 4240n by my employer to use in a remote office.  I am using a Windows version 7 home premium 64 bit laptop.  I have tried the HP install wizard - no support for this printer.  I have tried downloading the "correct" driver - but that doesn't work either.
    I assume that there is something wrong but I have spent hours and still haven't been able to figutre out what is wrong and how to fix it!
    HELP!

  • Wrt54GS router and Wrt54GS wireless adapter on Xbox 360

    Totally new in the wireless router business, I bought the Wrt54GS router and the Wrt54GS adapter to connect my Xbox 360.
    I installed the router with the cd and connected my pc on the router with a fixed ethernet cable.
    So far everything working fine.
    Then connected the wireless adapter on the Xbox 360, but it seems like the Xbox 360 doesn't recognise the Wrt54GS adapter.
    What did i do wrong?
    Sebastian

    Do you have wireless PC's ? are they able to go online ?
    enable network security and also change the beacon to 50 and the RTS and fragmentation threshold by 40 each under the advanced wireless settings.

  • Xfi extreme audio SB0790 Windows Home Premium

    I have installed Windows 7 upgrade on an HP desktop that was running XP Pro. Install went fine exept I have an error "No Audio Device Installed"? yet I have installed the Xfi extreme audio card in its slot. The card works fine with XP. I have gone with the windows update installed the current driver with still no luck. Searched the forums again no luck, have done my due diligence via the internet and with beta drivers and still only have the red X everytime I boot. What can I do to get this card working agian?

    Re: Xfi extreme audio SB0790 Windows Home Premium0 As I stated in my first post I did my due diligence and after installing beta drivers for the SB0790 then installing the recommended driver dated July 09 it still does not recognize the device (7 Home Premium). I have gone through every forum google points me to we are not alone, taking advice I've installed then deleted these drivers about 0 to 20 times I've tried compatibility mode "Vista" "Vista SP", "Vista SP2", "XP", and so forth with no luck also running the driver as admin. Every time I update driver in 7 it tells me I have the current driver yet I have a red X and no sound.
    I can't believe that Creative does not have working drivers for the final release of 7 knowing that they had 6 to 8 months to prepare. Really poor on their part.

  • WRT54GS NAT Settings Concerning Xbox 360 Setup

    My xbox 360 is connected to a Dell Inspiron B130 notebook via an Ethernet cable. The notebook is then connected wirelessly to a Linksys WRT54GS router. The router, finally, is connected to a Sprint DSL modem. My problem is that with this setup, whenever I try to play online on my 360, it tells me that my "NAT settings" are set to "Strict", and that they should be set to "Open". Could someone please tell me how to fix this problem, providing step-by-step instructions? Thanks!

    Do have the proper ports forwarded in your router?? Be my only guess......or check ebay for an xbox360 wireless adaptor.

  • Repeatedly asked to install Flash 11 on IE 9 Windows Home Premium 64 bit

    From my admin account - I successfully install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.  Everything works fine (in that same admin account) until a system reboot.  Then I receive messages from websites stating that they want me to install Adobe Flash.  I do so and all is well until the reboot.
    I have followed all the instructions on the Adobe main troubleshooting pages from uninstalling, rebooting, reinstalling, rebooting through the deletion of folders at run %appdat%\Adobe - Flash Folder and %\Macromedia and then uninstalling, rebooting, reinstalling etc. 
    Again, I receive a successful installation message and everything works properly until the reboot.   Looks like a lot of users have had this problem, but I haven't found a clean answer. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
    I followed one suggestion and downloaded and ran Secunia PSI and found no older version of Flash Player installed.  I do also have Adobe CS 5 Suite installed. I also started receiving messages from HP Solution Software that it would not operate until the latest version of Adobe Flash is installed.  I uninstalled the HP software pending resolution.  Uninstalls and reinstalls of Flash were not successful after removing the HP software either.

    Hello, I too have experienced the repeating of installing Flash Player after performing a successful install. The PC is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421, and Flash Player 11.4.402.265. The installation of the latest FP indicates a successfull install. Then when going to any site that uses FP, for example, weather.com, yahoo news, youtube, a message window indicates the latest FP needs to be installed.
    I've went through the steps in thread 4613512 (FP uninstaller), 928315 (clean install), 987370 (permissions errors), the steps in this thread including deleting the %Appdata%\Macromedia folders prior to the install, removed references to Adobe 7 in the Windows registry (running Adobe 10.1.4). Also checked that Windows Media Player was not installed. It is not. All of the functions in the steps within these threads seemed to complete successfully. No errors or other problems were indicated. Would you have any suggestions on something else to try?  Thank you.

  • I changed windows 7 ultimate changed to windows home premium

    Ok, I want to thank the two people who tried to help me last time. I found out I had to install a new windows. So I went and found my friend could do it but me having windows ultimate he only hand windows 7 home premium... And well now that it works I have
    a new problem... Along with the ultimate status gotten rid of, I now don't have the windows office. So like word, PowerPoint and excell.
    My question is is there away for me to get it back without a fee or will I just have to go and buy the office pack stuff to replace it?

    To begin with, you need to purchase Windows 7 Home Premium and Microsoft Office, then install them. Microsoft doesn't allow free installation of Windows/Office. If your PC was shipped with Windows, contact the manufacturer and request for a Windows installation
    disk. They may charge based on the warranty status and the company policy.
