PC Family... Then an inactive device of some sort. Then... I see the 360
so it's still hardwired? That has to be unplugged before the wireless adapters
got a shot at working right. Once you do that, ensuring the 360's wireless
adapter and the 360 are powered on, then get this screen shot one more
time. Also, once that's done, then click down to the right on EDIT SETTINGS
next to the Wireless Settings. We need a shot of that page that's linked
to that button to see what the 2Wire Home Adapter's up to.
Now one thing I note, the wireless SSID is 'Maples' which is not the default
one and someone changed that to your last name. That could be a small
factor but don't edit that until we get a better clue as to what else is up.
Unhook the Ethernet on the 360, make sure the wireless adapter is plugged
in and the 360 rebooted - then get those 2 screen shots and let's see if we
can get the final clue and get this fixed for ya!
