Default XBOX and wireless access.

I use the WET11 on my Xbox and it works flawlessly. The only problem was
that my PC was unable to connect to it in order to update the firmware but I
suspect it had something to do with an IP address conflict with another PC.
I gave up on installing the firmware and just plugged it into the xbox and
it worked fine. I have a netgear wireless router, the MR814. IMO, the
netgear stuff is better as they have far superiour support (24/7 tech
support in Australia as well as a comprehensive knowledge base, how tos and
email technical support). Linksys on the other hand in Australia have no
tech support and there databasee online is very poor but it may be different
in other countries (or phone support at least).
