Media Center sharing over wireless network with Xbox360

Alright, I've been searching for hours with no avail so I figured I'd ask a
question here.

First, let me explain my network set up.

I have a wireless router. One desktop computer is wired to it. Another
desktop computer receives a wireless signal from it. The router is wired to
the modem which of course is connected to the Internet. I also have an
Xbox360 which is WIRED to the router.

When I had both desktop computers wired to my router, I could use the media
center extender with Xbox360 and it worked fine. Note that I want to use the
desktop that is now wireless with the Xbo360/media center extender. Now since
this computer is wireless, the extender will not work. I've tried
uninstalling it, re-installing it, just about everything.

Is there any way I can get it to function?

Thanks for any input!

Is your wireless router a D-Link DI-774
if so,
check this out

and
Just so I get this right,
Is this the media center extender device (seperate unit from the computer)
or is it the Media Center (software only) installed in some versions of
Windows?
