How Do You Create A Home Network?

[healimonster]

I have a windows XP PC, an XBOX, and both are connected wireless-ly via 2 adapters and wireless router.

I am trying to get my PC to talk to my XBOX. How do I ping my xbox to know it is communicating with it?

I am trying to transfer music from my PC to my XBOX with Microsoft's crappy program XBOX MUSIC MIXER, and have had no success.

So I am trying to figure out if my PC can even communicate with my XBOX at all and go from there?

THanks for any help.

check on the xbox what the ip address is, then go to start>run>type cmd>ok>type ping <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx>>press enter

then it will tell you what is happening in the command prompt window, and you replace the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with teh xbox&#39;s ip address
