might be a bit late now but have you tried disconnecting your wireless module?
I don't know if the 360 can handle two simultaneous connections, as far as i know it's an either or thing.
Also, dumb question, but have you double checked or tried opening up your subnet mask?

 

Yeah done that both, 3 people will take there routers with them so I think it eill be good, I just want to find out what the problem is for the next time (thought it is likely I will just buy a new router.

For some odd reason, my 360 and PS3 had problems pulling an IP address from my Verizon router.  I turned it into a bridge (It is a modem/router combo for FIOS) and connected my 3Com router, which has always been reliable and wonderful, and I have had no problems since.  Since I'm sure your service provider went out of the way to give you just as awesome of a router as mine did, replacing it with another router sounds like the hot ticket.

I give that post a 9.6.
