thats correct, I'm connected through a netgear dg834g, I have sort of gotten past that problem, i disconnected that box from the network hoping that it would finish the install and i could sort out the network issues later, but now it has gotten past the install but won't go into MCE i just get a black screen with a cursor, i know this a different issue but i thought i'd let you know where I'm at, well i just woke up anyways so i'll guess i'll search to see if there are any black screen issues.
