Hello all! Time for a new router because my linksys doesn't work with two or more Xbox live accounts at the same time....keeps disconnecting when both Live accounts are running. I'm not really wanting to go wireless but I will be using two or Live accounts on my network. Do you guys have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Why not just pick up a cheap hub and run one box off the hub, connected to your router. Assign a different IP address to the box connected to the hub, and another IP address to the one running off the router.

Hey, If your using a "router" make sure it is set up to be a DHCP server, then set both xbox'es to DHCP. I am assuming this router has four ports? If this router works with one xbox then it should work with two (Only if it's a router) not a HUB...
Read your manual for specifics.....
