How do I find my alternate mac address? (Xbox 360 related question)?

I'm having trouble connecting to Xbox live. I have the Xbox directly connected to a port in the back of my wireless router, but although my PC that is also connected to the router is getting internet service, my XBOX gets nothing and cannot connect to Live. The ethernet port in the Xbox 360 that usually blinks when it's connected to Live, is blank, nothing. I've attempted to reconfigure the settings to automatic for the IP and DNS to no avail. I've changed it to %26quot;manual setting%26quot; and the only thing I'm missing is my alternate mac address. Where do I find that?



I switched from Verizon, that worked fine, to Time Warner Cable and am now experiencing these troubles.

open your browser and enter your ip address and go to your router configuration page and look for %26quot;attached devices%26quot; while your xbox is on. it should tell you all of the devices that are attached to your router. it should have ip address, computer name (my xbox shows up blank in the %26quot;Name%26quot; field) and the mac address.



make sure your xbox is on so your router can identify it.
