Derp derp derp I love when my huge reply gets deleted by my browser EVERY time I don't copy it before replying, and NEVER when I do copy.
Basically I updated all my drivers with a special package from Lenovo that did everything for me. It was really difficult to find, not linked on their site...

Just looked at the MAC, there are no blocks or anything. I tried configuring my xbox to bypass the firewalls and all too, but that didn't do anything either. (Then I removed that bypass.)
Also tried setting a distant static IP (My laptop is 192.168.0.16, so I set it to 192.168.0.28 which is...
