Annoying router issue
#1
Not sure if this is the correct section to post this, but it is Xbox related. I'll explain my setup.

I have a Huawei HG532 router, with 4x ports, and wireless n. Connected in one port is a netgear 4 port switch.

My media PC is an asrock 330 connected to the switch.

My Xbox with Xbox is connected to another port in the router.

my laptop was connected via WiFi, now connected to the switch.

My media PC streams via SMB, to the Xbox.


Now here is the problem. All works, streaming etc. But if I access the media PC from my laptop to transfer some new files over; the Xbox then cannot access the media PC until the media PC is restarted.

This gets very tiresome as you might imagine.

Does anyone know why this is happening? it happens if my laptop is connected by WiFi, and it happens when connected wired to the switch.

No idea really, but my best guess is an IP address conflict. Are you using DHCP? If not, did you manually assign the same IP to two of the machines? Other than that - I don't have any idea.
