Microsoft XBOX 360 (not the classic XBOX)
There are two sub-contexts:
- The 360 has been updated with the “New Xbox Experience” (NXE) dashboard. This is easily identifiable by the presence of avatars,the “Video Marketplace” with Netflix, and all-together different interface then previously.
- The 360 has not been updated to the NXE and still runs the old 360 dashboard.
Solution
On the old dashboard (pre-NXE)
- Go right to reach the System “blade” of the Dashboard.
- Select Network Settings.
- Select Edit Settings.
- Under Basic Settings check to make sure IP Settings is on Automatic.
- Go right to get to the Additional Settings Tab.
- Go down to select Advanced Settings.
- Toward the bottom of the screen you should see Wireless MAC Address. The MAC Address should appear below this.
On the new dashboard NXE
- Scroll Down (if necessary) to “My Xbox”.
