Residence Life Network (Resnet) — Getting your Xbox on Resnet
 

You must enter your MAC address on our website to get your Xbox online. This page provides instructions on setting up your Xbox and getting it online.

1. Insert your Xbox Live DVD in the drive. The software will automatically run and update the Xbox dashboard to show the Xbox Live option. Once this is complete, eject the CD and make sure you have your network cable plugged into your Xbox and in the network port. Open the Settings menu. (If you do not have Xbox Live and wish to get it, any game that is Xbox Live compatible will automatically update your Dashboard to be a Live compatible system when you select the option to play on Xbox Live within the game. You will also need an Xbox Live subscription.)

2. From Settings, go to Network Settings.

3. Within the Network Settings Menu, go to IP Addresses.

4. Once in the IP Addresses Menu, be sure the configuration is set to Automatic.

5. Press B and go back to the Network Settings menu, then go to DNS Servers.

6. Once in the DNS Servers Menu, be sure the configuration is set to Automatic.

7. Press B and go back to the Network Settings menu, there you will then see the MAC address in the lower right hand part of the screen. Write this MAC address down.
