Hey, i have 3 laptops, all of which have a wifi connection to my houses internet and i bridged the wifi connection to the lan connection(ethernet plug) on them..Xbox live worked with all of them,until i recently downloaded the FULL(not free) verison of AVG on one of the laptops..AVG comes with a firewall which most likely is the reason why it wont connect. when i disable the firewall, the xbox is able to connect to the network, but not able to connect to the internet or xbox live..i have this working on the other laptops fine but it seems like AVG is causing the problem..any help is appreciated..
thanks

Disable the entire firewall, you don't need it as you are behind a wireless router, which already has a firewall.
