Hi
If the wireless source is part of your own Network you need to make sure
that you Wireless Router/Access have a Unique SSID name and the SSID is
broadcasting.
Then the Wireless connection has to be set with correct security
arrangement.

This is a WiFi problem, and the "Limited Connectivity" advice is a symptom. Do
you have other computers successfully connecting by WiFi?

Set up a manual network, which will involve punchin in the SSID and Wep
/ Wpa pass.

Since its undefined it cannot fully connect without knowing the SSID,
Try that. '

Its for a Xbox360 i dont have one so my know how on that is limited to
the internet or a mates xbox

let me know
