I need help badly.

 

Usually I can figure shit out, but this is making my head bonkers.  I need to connect my new computer running Win 8 to my xbox upstairs.  Any ideas on how to do this, both the win 8 forums and xbox website are complete fuckking garbage.

@ KaptCrunch, 

 

Xbox is wired from router downstairs to upstairs (house).  As for connected items,  tower (wired), Telus Optik TV box (wired), laptop (wifi), tablet (wifi), and 3-4 phones (wifi).  I am running the highest telus optik TV speed available 25MBPS.  But it seems I run around 28Mbps.

 

That being said I have found a small, yet annoying workaround.  I find I can't use the windows media centre with Win 8, but if I use the xbox player I can access my media files on my tower. 

 

Devilsbed.
