Well, I borrowed my friends Xbox for a while, since he never uses it. It just so happens he had xbox live and everything on it, so i decide hey, might as well set it up and i can play some stuff online and whatever. I have the xbox hooked up to my modem directly, but it wont seem to connect. The power, and recieve lights are solid, but the send light is blinking. Everything is hooked up fine, but it just wont connect to xbox live, and my modem cant make a connection. I chcked the site and i did everything fine. My only idea is maybe to use a router, but right now i dont have access to one. Is that my problem? Does anyone have any advice? Thanks

My friend was running his xbox live through a router by the way.
