I keep losing network after reboot

Hi all,

I am losing my network after I finish doing "Softmod Installer Deluxe 4.0" it will not connect me at all. I am connecting back to my internet via a wireless gaming bridge (dlink-g820, that is setup to use DHCP).
I am able to restore my xbox using ms-dash-mik3h.rar and then after rebooting I am to connect to my network, but as soon as I finish the softmod and it reboots that is when I get stuck.

This is the tutorial I am following:

Any suggestions? I am not opposed to using a different softmod.

I tried to use this tutorial and it did not work for me:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to setup the network settings in your new dash!

Read all of my tutorials, they will explain everything you need to know!

 

I do chunkhead, but it doesnt do anything its like my nic is turned off or something.

Have you got a link light?

Read through my networking tutorial.

Also, setup a Static address, much more stable!

 

ok so I boot up into Softmod installer Deluxe 4 (Knave edition) and the xbox will get dhcp correctly and I can see it across the network. I will restore the dash and make it original and then setup a hard ip and reinstall again and see what happens.

ok I have:

1. uninstalled the softmod
2. restored my dash
3. setup a hard ip and dns setting (while I was "connected" to xbox live, I was able to ping my xbox)

next I going to reboot into SID4.0 and clear out my E: drive

ok I have re-installed SID4.0 and as soon as it restarts the dashboard I had a 192.168.0.2 ip address so I had to go setup my ip address, I restarted the xbox and still no connection, this is where I keep getting stuck.

ok now i am confident that my xbox nic is working, i gave it a static ip and I am directly connected to my router. I am able to ping and ftp to it from a wireless laptop going back to the router. So for some reason the dlink will work with my xbox. I will need to figure that out next, but in the mean time Im installing xbmc and trying some stuff out.

Ok, I'm a little lost now!?

You can ping and FTP it...

What exactly are you trying to do other then that?
