Retrieve Xbox 360 after purchasing laptop

I bought a laptop that meets the requirements for the free Xbox 360 student deal on July 8th 2012 but I didn't know the deal was going on at  the time. Is there a way I can still claim the free Xbox 360? I am a current student and have all the requirements met to get the Xbox 360.
Thank you for the help.

Are you using Linksys Router??
If so let me know the Model number ....

  • Free Xbox 360 with $700 or up Windows Laptop

    I have gotten the coupon using my .edu email for the free Xbox 360 with a laptop purchase of $699 or higher from College Student Deals
    but have seen that it says I need a valid student ID to get the deal. I have just graduated from high school and have not gone to orientation yet so I do not have a student ID from college yet. I have a high school student ID still. Does anybody know if they really check for IDs or if a high school ID would work? If not, there are other online places I can get the PC and get the laptop using only my .edu email, such as the Microsoft Store, HPDirect.com, NewEgg, and Dell.com and I will get a computer from one of those sources. I only wanted to get my laptop at BestBuy because I can g check out the laptop before I purchase it plus I hate waiting for shipping. I get impatient when having to wait for items ordered. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    As long as you have an acceptance letter and your .edu address.

    I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
    Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

  • Step by step complete setup for WRT54G ver.6 with Laptop and XBOX 360

    Hello.  I am sorry to post this, I am sure it is a juevenile and redundent question...but I have tried to look for the set up cd (I can find where to download it...though I can find the firmware upgrade or whatever).  My friend at work said it would do all the setup pretty much automatically for me.  
    I somewhat know computers, but you might go ahead and make your replies VERY lamen's terms or I might not be able to follow.  Anyways, what I need, is a step by step/screen by screen directions for a secure network.  I have made a partial attempt at setting it up and it technically works, but I would feel better if I did the steps a-z in order, so I know that it is done correctly.  I also am not totally confident in its security as it is now.  (Also, technically, I did not check the XBOX again after getting the new laptop, I am just assuming it is still working because it was before).
    My problem is I can't seem to find very good directions for setting up the router...I only find partials or confusing directions.
    So here are the things I am trying to connect:
    Liksys WRT54G ver. 6
    Gateway Laptop running Windows Vista
    XBOX 360 - WIRED
    (I had a PC and a laptop, but they both died at the same time and I have only been able to replace the laptop at this point...the PC will come later and not sure at this point if it will be Wired or not).
    I have a cable Modem between the Router and the wall...I didn't look at that for brand/etc...but I can get it ASAP if needed.
    Here are the settings that I have so far:
    Changed the Router Name
    Changed the SSID
    Have DHCP set to 3  (XBOX, PC, Laptop)
    Wireless SSID Broadcast: Disable
    Username and Password changed to my own info
    UPnP: Enable
    I may have changed other things without knowing it.  So like I said, a complete, step by step screen by screen set up would be totally appreciated.  I haven't done anything in the security tab, all that is totally foreign to me, so I am just not broadcasting for now until I can get some help setting things up with you guys.
    And if someone is familiar with the Laptop/XBOX 360 setup, and I need to change any of the settings on the XBOX itself, could you please include that in your directions?  I know that isn't technically what THIS forum is for, but it would sure be helpful to me if you happen to know both parts anyways.
    Thanks a lot (in advance)!

    So all you just need to do is, secure your Wireless Network. Follow the setps bellow and change the settings on your Router.
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
    Click on the Wireless tab
    - Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
    - Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
    - Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
    Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
    For Wireless Security : -
    Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
    Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
    NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
    Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
    Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect... 

  • BEFW11S4 Problems with Laptop and Xbox 360

    For the past few weeks my Linksys BEFW11S4 has been malfunctioning. When I try to connect to the wireless network from my laptop, it says "Not Connected" but I can still access the internet for a few minutes before it really disconnects. Unplugging the router and plugging it back in lets me connect again, but still it gives the "Not Connected" message and boots me off within a few minutes. It has also been causing problems with my Xbox 360. It is connected with an ethernet cable to the router, but every time I turn the Xbox on it says that it is not connected. After I unplug the router and plug it back in, the problem is fixed, and I can go online on my Xbox for as long as I want. Anyone know how to fix this?

    It seems that router is not configured properly ..... checkthe firmware version on the status page of router ..... .
    Upgrade the firmware if required .....

  • Networking my imac and other pc, laptop, vonage, and xbox 360 AAAAAAAAAAAH!

    I posted this in the iMac intel based part before I realized it was not the iMac I have. Oh keepers of the board, I apologize.
    Here is my dilema:
    I need to find a way to make my iMac wireless and don't know what would be best for my set up. I have cable broadband through a rca router, which then hooks up to my vonage phone device, which then connects to my linksys WRT150N which has an emachines pc through ethernet and a sony laptop wireless connected to it. I want the iMac, which is downstairs to be hooked up to the internet wirelessly if possible and my son also has a wireless adapter for his XBOX 360 that he wants to use as well. I know this sounds tres' complicated and I have given lots of information here but if anyone knows what I should get for this situation, I would be most appreciative! Airport of some sort? Third party stuff that's compatible? I am so confused! Would a better router be the answer? and a wireless thingee for the iMac?

    Simply connect the RCA modem to the Linksys router. The iMac, Vonage, PC laptop and XBox will then connect wirelessly to the Linksys. To make the iMac G4 wireless purchase the Airport Extreme card from Apple:http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=M88 81LL/A

  • Converting purchased iTunes song files to Xbox 360 friendly format?

    I know you can right click on a song and select Create AAC version. Is there any way to do this so that the converted file REPLACES the old one, and I don't have a load of duplicates to clear? Thanks

    I know this is an older post, but I myself have recently discovered that my Xbox 360 will not play the Protected or Purchased AAC files from my iPod. I understand that I can convert the Purchased AAC files to AAC and then the song will play on my Xbox; however, the problem with that is not only does it create a duplicate in my iTunes library, but when you go to remove the Purchased AAC file (as you already made an AAC copy of it), the song is also removed from your playlists. The library is now the only place the AAC file is stored in. It isn't enough that one must convert the songs to AAC format and then delete the duplicate, they have to redo their playlists. If you've discovered this by now and know of a way to make it easier to play the Purchased AAC files on the Xbox, please let me know. I'd like to save myself A LOT of trouble.

  • Massive lag on Xbox 360 for last 2 days after midn...

    Hi for the last 2 nights around 12am i get massive lag on xbox 360. Even though i am signed into live i cant connect to game servers and if i do lag is unbearable.  Thing is its perfectly fine until it gets to midnight and then its impossible to play anything.  Checked xbox forums no probs there.
    My exchange was upgraded 2 weeks ago, so dunno if their doing tests there after midnight?  I live in the Wrexham area north wales, any suggestions why this is happening?  Many thanks.
    ps checked my speeds when this is happening and they are the same as when the problem is not there.

    Sometimes after midnight, there will be a switch over to where you will be connecting to in terms of place, for ex America etc.
    Places that are further away, which could be why you are experiencing more problems.

  • Wireless kicks off laptop when xbox 360 turns

    I have been having this problem for about the last month where when I turn on my xbox 360 my router will kick my fiancees laptop off the wireless. I have a wrt54g v8 router and the wireless has been working perfectly up until this. Anyone have any suggestions??

    Open the setup page of router using 192.168.1.1...check the firmware on router's status page if it is not 8.00.5 upgrade it to the latest firmware...reset the router for 30 secs...power cycle complete network. Now, once you have done this settings make sure you forward the ports 80 & 3074 for the static ip address you assign to your XBOX-360....it will definately work.

  • Need help setting XBOX 360 to have bandwidth priority over my laptop

    I have a WRT54GS wireless router.  I have a laptop connected wirelessly through it, and an XBOX 360 wired into it.  If I use my laptop at the same time as my XBOX then my laptops connection works great, but my XBOX lags hardcore.  I need to figure out how to set the router to send most of my bandwdith to the XBOX and not as much to the computer.  I would rather the computer lag than the XBOX.  I don't know what all info I need to provide in order to get the answers that I seek, but if anyone can provide me with any explanation then I will be able to give you more info about my stuff.  Thanks

    1. Log into your router's web management tool by pointing your internet browser to 192.168.1.1 (default username: admin password: admin)
    2. Click on the "Applications and Gaming" tag
    3. Click on the "QOS" subtab
    4.  Ensure Internet Access Priority is Enabled
    5. Pull down the "Category" menu box
    5a. If you know the MAC address of the Xbox select "MAC Address"
    5b. If you know the port number the xbox is plugged into the router,  select "Ethernet Port"
    6.Input the information in the box below the pull down menu and setthe priority to high
    7. Save your settings
    *** PLEASE NOTE ****
    Network performance may be degraded for other devices while you are using the network on the xbox

  • After 7.3.1, extremely slow wireless on Xbox 360 and PS3

    Everything was running good on my PS3 and Xbox 360 connected wireless to my Airport Extreme. I upgraded to 7.3.1 and now things are running very slow. I also saw some very slow transfers from one Macbook Pro to another, both connected via Wireless N (0.5 MB/sec).
    I'd reset the router and modem and have no idea what the deal is. Anybody have any thoughts? I tried connecting my PS3 and Xbox 360 with an ethernet cable and speeds go back to normal. Too bad I can't run a wire where I am now.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    I'm a bit lay entering this discussion. But I too experienced this problem with my PS3. I benchmarked my AirPort with my old DL524-UP, and amazingly, the AirPort was about 30 to 50% slower both on my PS3 and my PC. So I checked out the settings on the D Link to figure out a variable that might be having an impact. I noticed that the D Link was configured to Channel 6. So I changed the AirPort settings from auto to Channel 6, did another benchmark, and what do you know. Suddenly my PS3 and PC are downloading beautifully. So that's my solution to this widespread problem - manually select channel 6!

  • Intermittent network performance with WRE54G on Vista, and no Xbox 360 connectivity

    I bought a WRE54G this week to help with some network dead spots in my home after moving house.
    So far I've only had no real success - configuration seemed to take a while to work through (by the time I got the WPA PSK worked out) but now I at least have 2 blue lights on the device all the time.
    On my Windows Vista Business laptop (Toshiba Tecra M400 with latest drivers) in my office (a deadspot) I can connect to the network and WirelessMon reports consistent signal strength of 60% with occasional drops to 40%. However although the connection seems to remain constant, connectivity is not. I seem to suffer severe degredation of network connectivity - streamed video will not buffer correctly and times out; connections to my corporate Exchange server are not retained. My guess is that the laptop is doing something like switching between the router WiFi network and the WRE54G network, although i I switch off the WRE54G I lose all network connectivity to my latptop in my office.
    On my xbox 360 (using the Microsoft XBox 360 wireless network adaptor) I am also having problems. Once or twice I have successfully been given an IP address and then failed to get DNS servers. This evening I don't even get an IP address.
    I'm stuck - I've tried a LOT of things and not achieved any luck. Can anyone suggest anything, or do I have a faulty range expander.
    Details below....
    My ADSL router is an SMCWBRA79042 which does support WDS. All the devices in my house worked correctly with this router in my old house before introducing the WRE54G.
    I use WPA PSK, TKIP. However I've also tried to get things working without any security at all, and then adding in security functionality afterwards.
    I have already upgraded the firmware on my WRE54G to the latest version on the linksys web site.
    I have tried using different channels. Initially I was on 8 (it was a free channel in my neighbourhood) but also have tried 11 and am now on 6.
    I have tried changing the beacon to 50 and reducing the RTS and fragmentation thresholds to 2250.

    Hi
         Have u checked the compatibility of manufacturer's of these two devices i.e ADSL Router & Range Expander ( IMP * version No of WRE54G ) .
    Cheers. !

  • Thinking of buying an Xbox 360, but not sure if I'll be able to connect...

    So, as the title says, I'm thinking of trying to get an Xbox 360, but I don't know if I'll be able to connect wirelessly to our Time Capsule with the Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter.
    I've been reading the most recent threads on here that I could, and some say you can connect wirelessly now as of July and the 7.3.2 update, yet other threads say it doesn't work. What should I believe? I really don't want to spend the $400+ on the Xbox, only to find I can't take it online.
    Does the Microsoft wireless adapter connect to the Time Capsule yet? Or if it doesn't, what would be my best bet for a wireless adapter?
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out with this.

    hello.
    i have a similar question. i have a 360 in my basement. my imac and modem and router are upstairs on the first floor. the 360 has a ethernet cable that comes with it. can i use that and purchase an airport express to connect to the network? After plugging the ethernet cable into the airport express, would that work? Or would I need more hardware (sorry if I seem computer illiterate, but i'm not familiar with networking)?
    ive been reading these forums and a lot of people say that they have time capsule or airport base station. do i need these too in order to connect to the internet, even though I already have a Linksys wireless router? Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • PS3 / Xbox 360 / PC Router Guide For GAMERS

    Downloadable for Wordpad or Microsoft Word: http://www.filefactory.com/file/b1e67ga/n/Gaming_Router_Guide.rtf
    Or just read below:
    PS3, XBOX 360, PC GAMING
    Router Guide and Modem Guide
    Introduction:
    Having issues trying to get your PS3, or XBOX 360 from Strict, or Moderate NAT? Want to get Type 2, "Open" status? Then follow this guide step for step.
    (Please refer to your manual or other posts if you are unsure how to access a certain step, or post a quick reply on the forum. You can usually access your Linksys router via Internet Explorer by typing 192.168.1.1 - password is usually admin, username blank or admin as well.)
    All of these steps were performed on the following test setup:
    1 - Laptop PC (Windows XP)
    1 - PS3 Console
    1 - Motorola Cable Modem (SB6120)
    1 - Linksys Router (WRT310N V1)
    Firmware Update:
    1)   Download the latest firmware for your router
    2)   Install firmware onto router.
    3)   Wait 1 minute after it has finished
    4)   Unplug your Cable or DSL Modem's power, and ALL other devices that connect to the router. Leave them off.
    5)   Click the "Reset to factory defaults" button in the router."
    6)   Wait 1 minute after the lights stop flashing erratically.
    7)   Physically go to the router, using a pointed object press the "Reset" button and HOLD for 30 seconds, then release.
    8)   Access the router interface (example: 192.168.1.1)
    Quick Tips and Information:
    *The following settings are assuming you are now at "Default" settings. If you are not, than some settings may have been overlooked and you may have the wrong settings.
    *You MUST use a WIRED connection for these steps. You can even use your PS3 or Xbox 360, and use the browser to access the router if your console is a wired connection. That is what I had to do, because my laptop is wireless only.
    *The biggest mistake people make, is not clicking "Save Settings" at the bottom of each page, before moving to the next section. You MUST click "Save Settings" on each little page. Including the sub-pages. This is a huge deal. Even though the settings will "Stay" how you clicked them, they do not actually go into effect unless you hit "Save Settings" on every page.
    *At this stage, any unnecessary devices must be turned off. Only the router and one device should be connected through wired Ethernet. Use that device to perform the following steps:
    SETUP > Basic Setup
    9)   Internet Connection Type: Automatic DHCP
    10) MTU: Manual, 1500
    11) DHCP Server: Enabled
    12) Start IP Address: 192.168.1.2
    13) Maximum Number of Users: 2 (set for how many devices you have. 1 laptop, 1 ps3 = 2)
    14) Client Lease Time: 0
    15) Time Zone: Set for your time, and "Check" automatically adjust for daylight savings.
    *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
    16) DDNS and Mac Address Cloning tabs should have "Disabled" option set.
    *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
    WIRELESS > Basic Wireless Settings
    17) Change to "Manual"
    18) Network Mode: Wireless-G Only (My laptop is wireless and has a G-card. Set accordingly)
    19) SSID: set this to something you like: (example Pro Gamer)
    20) Standard Channel: 11
    21) SSID Broadcast: Disabled
    22) Wireless Security and Mac Filter tabs should have "Disabled" option set.
          *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
    WIRELESS > Advanced Wireless Settings
    23) AP Isolation: Disabled
    24) Frame Burst: Enabled
    25) Basic Rate: All
    26) Transmission Rate: 54 Mbps (I am using wireless G. Set accordingly, but do not use auto.)
    27) CTS Protection Mode: Disabled
          *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
    SECURITY > Firewall
    28) SPI Firewall Protection: Disabled
    29) "Uncheck" ALL options: Filter Anonymous Internet Requests, Filter Multicast, Filter Internet NAT Redirection, Filter          IDENT, Proxy, Java, Active X, Cookies.
          *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
    30) VPN Pass-through tab: should have everything "Enabled"
          *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
    APPLICATION AND GAMING > All Tabs
    31) Skip this section for now, however if you did NOT reset your router to defaults before beginning. UNDO anything you         already have enabled on each of the five tabs.
    ADMINISTRATION > Management
    32) Router Password: change to something you use
    33) Web Utility Access via Wireless: Disabled
    34) Remote Management: Disabled
    35) UPnP: Disabled. Including the 2 options below it.
          *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab
    36) On the Diagnostics tab, click "Reboot" (may be located on very first page under “Setup”)
    37) Restart whatever machine you are currently using to do this.
    38) Turn on all devices that will be connecting to the router, except the cable/dsl modem.
    39) Log into the router with your new password. On the first, page you should see "DHCP Reservation" click this. At the top, you should see one device named PS3-something probably numbers. If it is blank but there is an IP address, that is okay too. Click the box to the right side of it. Your other devices should be there too, such as laptops and consoles, etc. Click the box next to each of them. Then Click, "Add Clients" Now you have just assigned a Static IP Address without going through the hassle of doing it manually. Now you will always have the same IP Address for each device.
          *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab
    40) Go to "Application and Gaming" click on the "DMZ" tab. Change DMZ to "Enabled."
    Source IP Address: "ANY"
    41) Now for the most important part. Most people use destination IP Address. However, if for some reason your IP address of your device changes, well then you are screwed. So instead, click MAC Address, then click "DHCP Client Table" and then "Select" the device that you GAME on, such as PS3 or Xbox360. Click "Close."
          *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab
    ***** IF you game on multiple devices, such as a desktop computer, and a ps3. You must DISABLE DMZ, and instead ENABLE UPnP. Please be sure to also enable the 2 options right Below UPnP. Many people do not enable the third, and sometimes even the second option. This causes hosting/joining issues, as the ports do not open/close properly. If you only have 1 gaming device, DMZ is the better choice. However, if you game on more than 1 device, use UPnP.
    ***** DO NOT ENABLE DMZ & UPnP TOGETHER.
    42) Go to "Administration" > "Diagnostics" > "Reboot"
    43) Restart ALL devices (Except cable/dsl modem) then connect them to the router.
    44) I would connect my laptop now, by using the dell wireless manager I have, use the wizard to find "Non-Broadcasting"       devices. Then I manually type in my SSID: (Pro Gamer) it pops up. Click "Connect,” then "Lock" then "Apply"
    45) For my PS3 I turn it on, go to Network Settings, then Connection Settings, "CUSTOM"
          Leave everything Automatic or "Default" except for these:
          MTU: 1500 / UPnP: Disabled (If DMZ is enabled on the router) / UPnP: Enabled (If UPnP is enabled on the router)
    If your console (ps3/xbox360) was the wireless device, then simply select, "Wireless" and click manual SSID type "Pro Gamer" or whatever your SSID is, then continue with the rest of the settings. Security should be none/disabled.
    ALMOST DONE!
    This next tip is almost completely UNKNOWN by the gaming community. However, it is spectacular. Did you know the cable companies increase their speeds over time for FREE? Here is how to get your free upgrade. Even if your speed does not change, this will upgrade your Cable Modem's firmware! (DSL modems must be done manually, check online.)
    Use a 7/16 wrench if connections are too tight.
    While the Modem is OFF, unscrew the coax cable from the modem. PAY ATTENTION to this step. Now unscrew the other side from the wall or splitter. Then, REVERSE them. Reconnect the coax cable to your modem using the OTHER side (the one that was plugged into the wall), and vice versa. Make sure they are snug, but do not over tighten.
    What does this do? Well I do not know the exact inner workings, but my friend who works for Comcast told me about this trick. It forces their system to re-register your Cable Modem. So now, you get a new IP Address, and it forces your modem to check for the latest firmware update. Along with that, come your increased speeds for FREE.
    a)   Now, plug in the power to your modem. Wait until all lights are steady.
    b)   Then go to your computer, (Do not use the PS3 or Xbox for this step)
    c)   Type 192.168.100.1 (might be different for your modem, Google it)
    d)   This is your MODEM's page.
    e)   Look around for an option that says, "Reset to Defaults"
    f)   Click "Reset to Defaults"
    g)   Wait 30 seconds. It will not do anything.
    h)   Now, you must click the other option, "Restart Cable Modem"
    It will now clear out the memory, check for new firmware, get an updated IP address, and hopefully give you improved speeds!
    That is all. Happy gaming! Visit www.speedtest.net and www.pingtest.net to test your connections.

    Hey thanks for this, but one thing I have to ask is about the modem part. I unhook the cables and reversed them and then turned on the modem the lights are on and stable now. I have a sb6121 and when the modem is completely active it goes green, blue, blue, green, which is power, downstream, upstream and then online. But when I did what you said it is green, blue, "green"!, green. So since its different do I wait for the upstream to turn back to blue, or do I have to call comcast and give them the mac address again? I have been waiting for 5 mins so far and don't want to restore defaults and restart till I know I should for sure.

  • Unsure about connecting my Xbox 360 to soundcard

    I have searched this forum and looked at the stickies to determine if this is possible before posting but am a little confused so I decided to ask for clarification...
    I have a Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatalty Professional Series installed in my PC
    I am considering purchasing the Sound Blaster Digital I/O module
    Is it possible to get 5. surround from my PC speakers if I connect my Xbox 360 to this setup using the Xbox 360 VGA HD AV Cable?
    Are there any downsides to doing so? Sound lag, skips, etc?

    I don't really know.. I got a Auzentech Prelude with SPDIF (supporting optical) input and output and even after Dolby Li've or DTS is activated on my system I get no sound whatsoever if I activate Dolby Digital on my Xbox360?
    Is it supposed to be like that? No sound when running Dolby Digital through a optical cable to my Auzentech Prelude?
    Dolby Stereo works, but then again I guess it wont really utilize my 7. speaker setup at all?
    Or does the sound card upmix to 7. or something, even when running Dolby Stereo on the Xbox360?
    No sound at all if I select Dolby Digital or that Dolby Digital WMA thing.. I thought Auzentech Prelude supported both Dolby Digital and that WMA thing?
    At least the SPDIF / Optical output does?
