Hi All

There is some content that is blocked to South Africans that need to use a VPN account to get around.

I'm using securenetics.com

My setup is as follows:
Vista x64 PC connecting wirelessly to Netgear ADSL router
Xbox connected via cable to PC
I bridge the 2 connections and I can connect to Live with my 360 without any problems.

Now I've setup a VPN connection, and set all IPs to automatic, but now my xbox won't connect to the internet. When I run the Live test, it doesn't even connect to the PC network.

Is there anyone who could help me with this? Or maybe somewhere in JHB that I could take my Xbox for 20 mins to get it sorted? I'm willing to pay to get it done.

Thanks all
 
I don't have your setup, but whenever my xbox fails to connect to the PC network, its IP address shows that it failed to get a "proper" one via DHCP, showing the 169.* one. I assume same applies here.
