Intentionally using a wrong password (this throws me a different. I am currently and have been for some time now, attempting to connect my Xbox 360 to the internet. Just to confuse me further, there was also a MAC address listed in the wireless information (but I think that relates to the connection to the controller…). Unable to connect Xbox 360 to Xfinity via Wifi or Ethernet cable. Once I’d gone through the initial setup (unfortunately I had to complete that before I could access the dashboard), I could examine the network settings in the system blade but, strangely, the MAC address I needed was labelled as the wired MAC address, even though it’s on the Wi-Fi connection (See solution 7 in Microsoft knowledge base article 978945). The wireless MAC address for your Echo can be found at the bottom of the Echo Setup. Adding a new MAC address to the Wi-Fi access point is simple enough – except that I had a few problems finding the MAC address for my Xbox 360s. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the chance to set it up until quite late at night and it took me a while to connect to my home Wi-Fi network, even using the Windows Connect feature, because I use MAC address filtering (in addition to WPA2 encyption). My new Xbox 360 S (with Kinect sensor) arrived today and I’m very excited. Please be warned that the information here may be out of date.

I don't routinely update old blog posts as they are only intended to represent a view at a particular point in time. That is the MAC address of the LAN adapter.This content is 11 years old.
