360 & vista

[Guest]

I just downloaded the 5536 build and I still can’t get my PC & 360 to work
together my PC just keeps telling me

Extender failing to configure the device
While on my 360 I see "Windows Media Center Contacting . . ." going on
forever.

my 360 is wireless running over 802.11A and my desktop is running over a
802.11G would this be a problem? I also read a form where someone was
talking about a firewall setting that needs to be set is there anything I
should do to the firewall on the router or desktop? I have been working on
trying to get PC and 360 to work together forever I hope you can shine some
light in this for me. Thanks.

If it was previously connected to the PC before installing Vista, make sure
you disconnect from the PC from the Xbox 360 settings. Then run the setup
again.

I had issues till I enabled netbios in the adapter

I had the same issue until I disabled Trend Micor's firewall and used windows
firewall.
