I use a wireless "LOS" based DSL. My bandwidth package is 1.5Mbs down and .5up; I have double checked the required bandwidth for xbox live service and I have more than enough. My router and firewall is set to allow all incoming and outgoing activity and all ports are unblocked. I have also tried a direct connection to the modem with no effect. I can only sign into xbox live, but I can’t find or join any games. My xbox either freezes or says it cant connect. I have ran the test on the xbox itself and it says its connected with an Open NAT. I cant get any other land based provider (SBC, Cable, etc..) I also have satellite and it works fine on it but it has a extremely high ping and that really not good for games. And I have xbox live gold so I know my account is authorized to play games. Anybody have any ideas what could be wrong?

ok i have a laptop with a wireless card. anyway i dont have wireless internet service but my neigbor does lol anyway.. it lets me get on it all the time except for like one time a week i try to get on it and it lets me on but doesnt give me full access to the net. it sais "Local only" i have windows vista. anyway it pisses me off when it sais that lol does anyone kno why it gives me that

Last night I tried to update my apps from my phone, usually the little ones I can, but I know the big ones I usually have to log on to itunes and update…when I started I had 9 apps to update, I updated 3 that were small, it went through its regular stuff, asked me for my password, then I saw it loading and installing on the little app icons…well after that my phone started acting weird, lagging and just being "buggy", so I rebooted it, and when it came back on it said I have 9 app updates! I should have only had 6 because of the 3 I updated, but when I looked on the update screen, they were back on there saying they needed an update!

So today I’ve been using my phone all day, but a minute ago, it showed I had about 4 bars of service and it was connected to my wifi but it wouldn’t send a text! I kept trying to send it, and it wouldn’t, then all of a sudden it says searching for service! I don’t usually have problems with my service at all, especially when I’m not moving, I’m sitting in the same place…

Next problem…I thought that maybe I needed to hook my phone up to iTunes, thought maybe that would help, well, as iTunes was loading I get an error msg saying it couldn’t connect and it timed out…I made sure I was connected to the internet, made sure there was nothing going on weird with my modem…nothing was wrong…well, everything seems to be working fine…but now my sons iPod is acting glitchy!!! WTF is going on!! Am I just having really bad luck with technology today!!!

Just a side note: about a week ago I downloaded the IMDB app, and thats about when I noticed the lagging start…anyone know if this could be it? And if so, could taking it off help, or is the damage done? I read reviews before I load anything and there weren’t many bad ones
