Did you read the tuts properly...
I noticed you still did not see my point
hi,
any problem is evox.ini?
I have made so many changes on it without success that I am almost crazy..

do me a favor and drop your subnet to 255.255.255.0 on your pc and xbox then try again. In theory that shouldn't help you or hurt you at all, but I just want to see.
oh, and you said you had it connected via a crossover so just to be clear you have the crossover cable plugged into your pci ethernet on your computer and from there it goes straight into the back of the xbox, correct?
There is a pci adapter in your laptop?
National Semiconductor Corp. DP83815/816 10/100 MacPhyter PCI Adapter
anyway, you said when you boot from an older evox the network works without changing anything? How do you boot your older evox with the same evox.ini? Just curious as to the steps you take, maybe something will reveal itself.
hi,
not realy pci adaptor, is onboard integrated lan chip, laptop is HP Compaq nx9010,
about booting from older dash, I leaved in xbox hdd evox 18458 beta renamed to olddash.xbe and ini file it uses is "menu.ini" so no conflict booting,
anyway I copy evox.ini to menu.ini and dashboard only reads used fields, (ex: network section) so any text can be dropped on that ini file without give problems.
I added a shorcut in dash menu to call 18458 xbe, working fine, also if I boot 18458 beta from cdrw have same efect, 100% working
