Hi i have set up a live account through the xbox live website, and im getting my xbox in a few days and was wondering can i use this profile on my xbox 360??

Alright, trying to connect to Live through a BT home Hub 2.0 and a wireless networking adapter, and it's just not connecting. The 360 is picking up the hub when I search for it, but it keeps coming up as not connected. The wireless indicator is showing as steady blue (which should mean the signal is fine)
Any other BT users had this problem? Help!

I can't help you I'm afraid, I'm using a wired connection. My problem is quite different though:

Please help me guys, I'm extremely frustrated!

I'm trying to renew my gold membership and I have a 3 month card. I enter the code, then it says more information is required. I then have to sign in and provide contact details. I cannot proceed past this stage because I'm not from the US but it wants me to say what state I'm from and what my ZIP code is! I really want to play online and this is really annoying me but I can't figure out a way to change it so it realises I am from the UK and lets me get past that page!

Thanks for any help you can provide

I've set my locale and time zone to UK but it still wants me to say what state I'm from and what my Zip Code is! I'm going crazy here shouting at my xbox "I'm not from the *bleep*ing US!"

i dont know if someone else asked or anything..
but could someone explain what the difference between gold and silver memberships are.
i want to play games online to the max when i get my live,, so im thinking i should get gold?

Gold allows you to play online with other people. With silver, you can play by yourself.

Silver allows you to download and play demos a day or 2 after they have been released.

Gold allows you to download and play demos the day they are released

ah thanksss

your welcome

Didn't know where else to put this, didn't want to make a dedicated thread if this one will solve the problem, if I am mistaken then I'll post it somewheres else.

To make a long story short, a friend of a friend had his account stolen by some punk that systematically got into every person's Live account on the guy's friend list, including my friend. If what my friends have been saying is true, and not them blowing things out of proportion, then the one who stole the accounts got enough information from their Live profile (Card numbers, addresses, etc) to make bank transactions. I'm not sure if it was outside of just Microsoft points or not, but there is money taken out of accounts from the ones who had their accounts stolen.

What I want to know (since we've already been to Live support and Microsoft, no help from any of them) is, is there any way to find any information on the one accessing the accounts? He's active on a number of the accounts he's stolen and I hear people spinning yarns about being able to find an IP from their Live account. Is this a feasable option or are all parties involved screwed and just hope the prick runs into someone who can do something? Or maybe another way to find out who is doing this?

i was thinking about getting live but i dont know much the connection chords are. Also my computer is all the way in the other room. If someone could tell me the largest chord there is and the price i would appreciate it.
