Xbox Live Problem

/slaps Spooner and Mark for trolling my thread

Seriously though, no, wasn't at home most of the weekend. Going to try Matt's other suggestion this evening (the MAC address thing)

The MAC address thing will let you reserve an IP address for your xbox so that you can forward ports there to get open NAT, but without that, you should still be able to connect to the internet and xbl.

Yeah true, but for some reason it still ain't working.
I logged into my router, and I can see the IP address with what I assume is the old Xbox's MAC address.
 
Otherwise just work from the ground up. Unplug everything except the PC and router. Once PC has an IP via DHCP or something and connects to the net, add the Xbox on DHCP too with everything on auto. Check if it connects to the net. Then add PS3.

Then why was everything working fine for 6 months?
Not discounting the fact that you could be right, but I'll reset my PS3 tonight, without the PPPOE settings and see what happens.
