@Spacemonkey: The way magic packets work are by triggering the MAC address of the device – this means the IP address of the media center is not the issue. Once the PC is on, Media Center Extender on the Xbox 360 will find it no matter what IP address it has (as long as it is valid).

Interesting post. The only problem is that, how would the xbox know the ip of the media center. If it is turned off over right, of may get a new ip from the dhcp server.

Interesting find Michael – I’ll check it out and see how/if it works for me, and what settings may be required.
