[Wasn't exactly sure where this should go, so I put it in anything goes]

So I just got an Xbox 360 and have it down in the family room. I got Connect 360, a program for the Mac, that allows me to access my iTunes library from the 360 instead of having to copy songs the the 360's HDD.

The 360 is connected to the router directly, the iMac is connected via wifi.

My problem is that while connect 360 seems to see the Xbox, the Xbox doesn't see the iMac.

The router is a Linksys WRT54G v3 with the latest firmware update. On the router the only settings I have changed are setting up WAP2 security and turning off the firewall.

Does anyone else have an Xbox 360 and Connect 360 that has any ideas?

Is Connect 360 a free-app or do you have to buy it? I'd love to be able to connect my 360 to my Mac.

I attempted to try it this morning before work, Connect 360 kept on freezing for me. I didn't really do much with it because I didn't have a lot of time, bu tI will after work tonight and post some results.
