I think this would be your firewall or internet settings. Didn't you post this in the files forum?

yes i did but no, i dont think its a firewall problem cause it did it even before my firewall was installed

check your computer for spyware, that might be the problem...

Yea, I was gonna say that if he meant if it freezes up.
That might be either too many processes or big processes that take to much CPU count or Processing mem.
If so just delete the spyware or get a new processor.

Can you access shared files on your computer or Xbox? It could be that your ethernet cable or the port on your router is messed up.
