ok I dont know,  but you could try a few simple things first !!

1 pick up phone, dial AOLs Free Help Line and ask  !!
2 use AOL search and  type DNS !! (you could be lucky)
3 Use Google and type AOL DNS I have seen a couple of different DNS numbers depending where you are, so wont bother commenting.

Give it a whirl  :) <

You can not connect your xbox directly to your internet connection if you use AOL.  You must share the connection over another computer on your network :) <

you never really clarify if your using dial up or aol highspeed.  

not sure, maybe this link will help, even though your not connecting to live.

this aint gonna help u much but... why are u using AOL in the first place? it's THE WORST dialup (or broadband) service out there if u ask me... there program is EXTREMELY BLOATED and installs all kinds of unnessesary stuff on your pc without your knowledge

i wish you luck ;)
