Hi, OK. Hmm.... I wonder, where box 2 is located then? Anyway. while you can always use box 2 as a router, I still would prefer to buy the "5quid switch" and connect box 2 and the Xbox to it. Doing this, box2 and the Xbox can independantly use the internet and box 2 does not need to be powered on while the Xbox is to be used online. kind regards Eberhard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
