Should be able to choose your IP through settings or if you have a router between them, simply set all to DHCP and let the router do the work. Another note, be sure that if you are direct connecting, you must use a cross over cable, standard Cat 5 won't work.

Heck, if you can get in the Xbox dash, you can set the xbox default to DHCP through the network settings there and it should follow through to the dash as well.

If your using unleashx, try going to system, then settings, then network. You can change your IP from there.

So you know, if you have avalaunch installed as apps, you can use those fairly easily. Avalaunch has a built in feature to direct connect two xbox together. Keep in mind what Shark2th said: that if your not using a router, you need to use a crossover cable and not a patch cable.

If you don't have a cross over cable, you can make or purchase one fairly easily. I personally use this, and it is invaluable during my networking ventures: http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/tools/7470/

If your skin has moved menu options around, try going back to the default skin and from there accessing your settings.

iīve done it! i copied the C folder from the xbox, changed the ip address in the font folder and copied it back onto the xbox. have now manged to change the ip address so it should be able to connect to the other. unfortunately i have customers in just now and have to wait until they leave to see if the xboxs will connect together. thanks for your help guys. iīll know where to come in future. one last question - how difficult is it to change the dashboard to evox or something? that seems to be the most popular dash
