Hey everyone,
I've been working on this for at least 3 hours. I have a WRT54G VER. 6 with the most updated firmware. When I get to the xbox 360, it is connected to the network, but it won't get an IP address. I need some help...

Hi !

           Then do a powercycle for ur network !  U should be up n running !

    the nat type for xbox 360 and ps3, what is it when you set the router up out of the box? are the nat types open moderate or strict

    Hi there. It actually depends if the gaming consoles ports are not blocked by your ISP. Moderate NAT type limits your connection playing online games, Strict does not allow you any connection at all while Open allows you to play with everyone online. Have you had a router before with Open NAT on the gaming consoles? Try to check without the router by going directly to the modem and see if your NAT type is open or strict or moderate. If ever modem is fine and it is the router not working right you can port forward ports on the router. I found these usual ports online, for XBOX live:TCP and UDP ports:  80-88, 3074-3074, 4267-4269. For PS380, 443, 3478, 3479, 3480, 5223, 8080 and UDP: 3478, 3479.

    When you upgrade the firmware on your Router, you need to Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
    For your XBOX you can make these changes on  yuor Router as well as on your XBOX. I think it should make the NAT Open on your XBOX.
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    On the set-up tab change the MTU Size to 1365 and click Save Settings...
    Click on "Administration" tab and disable the option UPnP and click Save Settings...
    Click on "Applications and Gaming" tab and then click on "Port Range Forwarding" subtab...
    1) On the first line in Application box type in ABC, in the start box type in 53 and End box type in 3074, leave the protocol as both and under ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and check the enable box, click Save Settings once done...
    2) Once you return to the set up page click on the Security tab and uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...
    3)Click on the Status tab and take note of DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses...
    4) Goto the XBox Network Settings and IP Address Settings and select manual IP Settings and assign the following on your Xbox IP Address :- 192.168.1.20, Subnet Mask :- 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway :- 192.168.1.1...
    5) Also assign the DNS Addresses on the Xbox, Use DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses you took note off of the router status tab as Primary DNS & Secondary DNS for the xbox...
    6) Turn off your modem, router, and Xbox...Wait for a minute...

  • Opening NAT for Xbox 360 (HELP!)

    Ok, I really need help. I am trying to open my NAT for my Xbox 360. I recently contacted Xbox Support and they gave Port numbers and told me to contact linksys to help set the numbers up on my router. When I called them, a man told me that my that my router 's warranty is done and it would cost me 30 dollars for him to tell me how to do this.

  • Need to open NAT for Xbox 360 using AirPort Extreme 2012 Model

    Alright this is driving me crazy haha.
    Here is the equipment im working with.
    Xbox 360
    Motoroloa SB6141 Modem from time warner cable
    Airport extreme 2012 model
    Early 2011 Macbook pro
    if its been released i have the update for it. haha
    So i have not had this issue before i got the SB6141 on Saturday.
    I have read things about it and none of it is clicking. trying to get more personalized help here.
    Any Help is appreciated.
    Thank you in advance!

    So i have not had this issue before i got the SB6141 on Saturday.
    That.....is the problem.
    Right now, you are getting Double NAT because the modem is providing NAT firewall and the AirPort is providing NAT firewall. That equals Double NAT also known as Strict NAT.
    Contact Time Warner support to get the default IP address for the modem so that you can get into the settings and turn off the firewall in the modem.  It needs to be set to pure bridge mode. A decent phone tech will know how to do this.
    If you have other modem options, you won't have this problem with a Netgear CMD31T....also on the list of TWC recommended modems.

  • WRT54G - Advice for XBOX 360 users

    My Advice - Upgrade the router's firmware using a wired connection before you do anything else.
    I just got this router as a replacement for a broken-down d-link router.  I had issues with the 360 the first night I installed it.  Everything else worked (PCs, Wii). 
    Symptoms:
    Router wouldn't assign my 360 an IP address through DHCP
    The XBOX live connection was all quirky
    NAT level showed as moderate in the 'Test Connection to XBOX Live'
    360 couldn't see the mediaCenter PC correctly
    I am using a wired connection from the router to the 360. 
    Because DHCP wasn't working, I set the IP and DNS manually.  That seemed to have half-worked.  It would show me as signed on to live though the games would fail to perform on Live.
    Solution:
    I decided, before following any of the other advice out there - which in some cases can really comprimise your network's security - I decided to upgrade the router's firmware.
    Once I did this then set the XBOX 360 IP and DNS back to Automatic, the 'Test Connections' on the 360 were successful and I was playing blazing angels and nba 2k7 online with no lag, etc... 
    I did not have to make any other adjustments after the firmware upgrade.  NAT Level also changed to OPEN when running the 'Test Connection to XBOX Live' from the 360.  No DMZ, no port triggering, and no port forwarding necessary.
    Background:
    Just to give you an idea of how many devices I'm running through this router at my home:
    3 wired desktop PCs
    1 wireless desktop PCs
    2 wireless laptop PCs
    1 wireless Nintendo Wii
    1 wired Xbox 360
    All devices are working just fine.
    I've been working with routers for around 12 years (large and small implementations).
    I got this router for around $50 and really like the features for the price (especially the WPA2 and wireless MAC address filtering).

    Ok I have a new problem,(I have a topic on xbox 360 and nat settings)I got my NAT to open, was able to play with my friends that I couldn't before.Then last saturday, he brought over his xbox 360 and we played all night. Then the next day,with his 360 back at his place, we try to join and its the same problem all over again,can't join his party.His settings was set to OPEN before,when he put it back at his place,now he had a MODERATE setting,without changing anything on his router config.(should still be OPEN). Anyone have any walk arounds for this problem,or any help? I only understand so much of this networking stuff.

  • AirPort Express as a Wireless Adapter For Xbox 360 and to stream PC audio?

    Ok, so I am wondering if I can do this config with an AirPort express. I want to connect the AirPort to my existing WiFi, and be able to plug in an Ethernet cable connected to an Xbox 360 to get Xbox Live, as well as stream audio from my PC. Is this possible to do at once? Also, is it possible to stream PC audio, not just iTunes music? Thanks for your time.

    Hello podalex,
    Just an FYI for you with regard to the Airport Express:
    It is always best to check with the software manufacturer FIRST. They will tell you if they have tested the product and the version, as well as whether or not it will work with Windows 7.
    Check out the Windows 7 Compatibility site: (There you will find out about hardware and software compatibility.)
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/en-us/default.aspx
    There is a pulldown from which you can choose "hardware" and "software".
    There are also some great articles, instructional videos and such to help with your Windows 7 at our Springboard site:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/default.aspx
    In any event a lot of the times, Vista drivers will work in lieu of Windows 7 drivers, however, it's not 100%!
    As stated previously, it's best to have the Windows 7 certified drivers installed.
    Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 Support Forum located here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w7itpro/ . It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. You may want to check the threads available there for additional assitance and support.

  • Best Monitor for XBOX 360

  • Can the Macbook Air be used as a display monitor for Xbox 360 ???

    Hi Guys,
                Basically I was just wondering if the Macbook Air 11'' can be used a display monitor for the Xbox 360 due to me smashing my TV... Ooops.
    I tried with a thunderbolt to HDMI socket and then plugged that into my Xbox with no luck ! If it is possible in some way could you please explain what parts are need and how it would need to be set up.

  • Can I use a D-Link DIR-505 as a repeater just for xbox 360?

    Most people who have a Time Capsule and xbox 360 here, know the woes of trying to get them to play nice together.  I've flat out given up and wired it.  But I really would like to have it wireless.
    Has anyone tried to use this D-Link DIR-505 as a repeater and/or bridge?  Or for that matter, any other device?  The added bonus is that the signal is boosted.  I originally wanted to get an Airport Express to do this same thing, but my guess is that the internals of the AExpress and the TC are the same and I'll just end up with the same problem.
    If someone can confirm that the AExpress works with the Xbox 360, I would rather get that. I've read that Apple routers get along best with other Apple products and not as great with non-Apple products.
    Any advice would be great!
    thanks.

    You would be better off buying a new router.. eg WNDR3800 netgear.. which is fully compatible with xbox.. better wireless than the TC.. has excellent third party firmware, openwrt, gargoyle, dd-wrt.
    Bridge your TC and use it for backups.

  • Wi-Fi for Xbox 360

    I bought an Xbox 360 for my son and it has 802.11n Wi-Fi built in. When I buy a wi-fi router, should I get wirelessn or g? Or does it matter?

    N is better. It has further range, better throughput and a better connection almost always. Most routers are N now anyways.
    So yes to N.

  • Wireless Airport Connection for XBox 360

    There are several prior threads on this, and on the Micros**t board, but none resolve the issue - so here's hoping someone can help the father of a frustrated 15 year old (please, please!!).
    Bottom line - my son got an XBox 360 for Christmas. We have an Airport Extreme network (with an Airport Express range booster down stream) for our home network. Cable modem with static IP. The XBox with its wireless networking adapter will recognize my home network (with WEP security) - it's located about 10 fet from the Extreme Base Satation, but the XBox will not connect. (We tried the XBox website's "set up wizard" to no avail; Microsoft simply says that Airports are not supported and they have no clue as to how to establish a connection with a non-PC).
    I know an XBox 360 can join an Apple Airport Extreme wireless network because others have posted the result - but without any explicit instructions on how to do so (at least none that I can find).
    I'm pretty Mac savvy, but don't want to get into doing terminal commands as I don't want to mess up any aspect of my home network (since I have an office there as well and can't afford to rebuild a network like I did last night for 6 hours when someone at Micro told me to change my Airporst security, which sent a ripple effect throgh my system to the point I lost all internet for hours).
    So, if anyone can give me a set of "a, b, c ... 1, 2, 3 ..." set-up instructions on how to wirelessly get an XBox 360 to join an Airport Extreme network, you'll have certaintly done your good deed for the Holidays!
    Thanks and Cheers!
