Try this.

1. Go on the Dashboard of your Xbox 360 console to “System” area then “Network Settings” then “Restore To Factory Defaults", when it ask you to apply settings select "Test Xbox Live"

2. Go on the Dashboard of your Xbox 360 console to the "system" area then "Network Settings" then "Edit Settings" then select your wireless settings part down there "Wireless Mode, Network Name,..." the console will automatically then search for your wireless network and when it find it and you select it, it will ask you to enter your wireless key which is called WEP or WPA key - you can find it written on your wireless router or then you need to contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider) to get it from them - when it ask you to apply settings select "Test Xbox Live".

If bluemonkey's tips do not help.
We had similar trouble - in the end we resorted to hard wiring between the Internet live box & the x box. They sell a plug in unit if you want / need to use it in wireless mode.

have you got the xbox360 plugged into a router (not the wan port) you need to plug it into a LAN port, either this or plugging it into the back of your modem, rebooting your modem, then turning on your xbox 360, you will also need to pay 4.95 for access to xbox live, per month
