The DSS 5+ is a SWITCH. Technically it is not a router.
The auto-crossover feature may allow connection to the WAN side broadband unit, but you may be asking too much of the DSS 5+ in that configuration of a LAN network.
See if the XBox supports PPPoE. But this is a shot in the dark as a solution.
I might wrap it up and see if I could exchange it for a real WAN/LAN ROUTER at the computer store.
