Just thought I would share how I did it...
I used this:

Ran the a/v from my xbox into the a/v distributor.
Then I run one set of a/v out to my TV and another a/v out to the advc55...which connects to my imac via firewire. Importing into imovie HD is a breeeze! I had to pick up a 500gig external drive for editing the video though...120gigs just wasn't enough! haha.
oh yea...here's my youtube link so you can see what i've done so far...be kind, I'm new at this! =)

Which rev Actiontech MI424WR is it? This info should be on a sticker that is on the router.

XBOX ONE. I have the xbox one and the airport time capsule and cant connect to most xbox live games and zero parties. I have 0 experience in all this but somehow was able to change NAT to open but still wont connect. HELLLPPPP

Okay folks, I need your help out there.
So the nerdy side of me went and picked up the XBOX ONE on release day. Its awesome by the way, BUT..... I cant seem to connect to most xbox live games and absolutely ZERO parties. At first I just thought it was something to do with the xbox itself and would eventually fix itself, but i was wrong. After looking into it on microsoft, i found out that it had to do with my NAT settings on the airport itself. I guess apple and xbox are not compatiable for xbox live and it makes it difficult to have an open NAT setting and is a huge PAIN.
I was able to pinpoint one that the airport time capsule was blocking the IPV6 something or another. Anyways, I unblocked that, and reset the modem and time capsule and jumped on the xbox and now have open NAT settings but still cant connect to multi-player.
Upon further searching, i was told to uncheck the UPNP on my time capsule as well, but have no idea how to find that.
I know it seems confusing, but thats the best i can describe it.
tthanks all

Be a long long time before I see an Xbox One.. but whoever told you to uncheck the upnp in the TC.. tell them their dreamin' .. upnp is not support by Apple in any computer or router, never has been.. Apple deliberately wrote their own version called NAT-PMP to do the same thing.. dynamically open ports at the request of an application or client computer.
So there is nothing like that to uncheck.. and as a matter of interest.. there no box to check or uncheck for NAT-PMP either.. since apple do not believe in end user adjustment of settings.. they simply do not exist.
You will have to manually forward all ports required by the Xbox via the TC. For multi-player games you probably need to open more ports than the standard to allow just xbox live. You will need to check the ports required and open them.
OR
Buy a standard vista UPNP compatible router.. and use that.. and simply put the TC in bridge in the network.
I have not seen posts yet about xbox one.. but there are plenty about xbox and ps3 and the fact that Apple really doesn't give a hoot about games consoles.
This is a good basic post for older xbox.

Been complaining about lag on xbox live for a year and Verizon is now ignoring me.

For the past year and a half I have been complaining to verizon about the horrible xbox live service I am getting. They keep telling me there is nothing wrong. I have tried four different routers(verizon and non-verizon with updated firmwares), tried both coax and ethernet, switched every ethernet line twice, played on a 5 foot cable in my garage, had my ont switched, and my fiber re-spliced. Verizon claims nothing is wrong and have tried to get me to stop complaining by telling me "fios is too fast for xbox because games are designed for high latency connections and because fios has no latency slower connections can't keep up so it feels laggy." I posted that response on a xbox gaming forum and promptly had 10 people tell me FIOS runs great on their xbox.
So obviously the problem lies beyond my network and verizon is doing nothing to fix it. I have had a technician come out at least six times and all they run is a speed test. I am getting the speed I am provisioned at but ALL my xbox live games are unplayable online. I believe the problem lies in the first public hop outside because when I run a line quality test,(https://secure.dslreports.com/pingtest) I get an error that says "50ms or more latency between your ip address and your first public internet hop could certainly be bettered with a quality connection"
Just to be sure it wasn't unique my house I walked around my neighborhood and found 2 open wifi networks that were on FIOS and ran the same test. Both of them came back with the same error as me and both had the same first hop as me. To make sure that error wasn't normal for FIOS users I asked those poeple on the xbox live forum to run the test and tell me the results. Every single one of them passed the first hop test and had nearly half the latency, (Here are a few of them) I supplied this information and now they are ignoring me.
Is there any mod or technician here that can provide me with contact information for someone who will look into and fix this problem for me? I believe I have provided significant proof that this problem is not in my network and calling an 800 number and opening a ticket does not help. I have been complaining for a year and a half and nothing has been done. I have lost practically all my xbox live friends because of this and would like to be able to play now that I have more free time. A phone number or email would be great. BTW I am in orange county, CA if that helps.
Thx

Xbox Live on Lumia 800?

I have a Lumia 800 and didn't came with Xbox Live on it. Maybe some country/region stuff in which I understand is Xbox Live is not available in the Philippines. Instead I have the "Games Hub" where all my downloaded games can be found.
Recently. A bunch of Xbox Live games became available in the market. And I tried downloading one that is free. The "Flowers Game". When I downloaded it. I cant seem to find it anywhere on my phone. Is it because I dont have Xbox Live? How do I install Xbox Live or resolve this in another way?
Thanks.

User error on my part...
I'm happy to report all functions of the MM450 are working beautifully with my Lumia 800 (e.g. full zune control, making/recieving calls). The two devices are a match made in heaven.
Cheers...

XBOX Live section not available under Games Menu

Hi,
I'm using a Nokia Lumia 800, with Vodafone Romania as mobile provider.
When I go to Games, XBOX Live section is not available. So any games that I install and should be listed under this section cannot be accessed ( even if the installation wizard for the games completes succesfully).
When I bought the phone I remember I unpined the XBOX Live tile from the initial screen; I dont remember hitting Uninstall..
How can I restore XBOX Live tile/section?
Many thanks.

Hello, xbox live is not available in Romania, I also use an win phone in Romania and cannot buy or play xbox live titles.

How do I change my NAT from "strict" so I can properly use Xbox LIVE?

I am able to connect to Xbox LIVE, but the Xbox (360) reports my NAT as "strict", which means I don't have a good connection and can't even participate in some things like tournaments on Project Gotham Racing 3.
I've spent hours researching this on the net. No luck yet, but here's what I've tried so far:
One post (http://forums.xbox.com/8109385/PrintPost.aspx) said there are three ways to fix my problem: (1) Use UPnp (universal plug 'n' play, the equivalent of which on the Airport Express seems to be NAT Port Mapping Protocol), (2) Set up a DMZ (demilitarized zone, which is called a Default Host by the Airport Express), and (3) Port Mapping.
First, turning on NAT Port Mapping Protocol doesn't have an effect on my Xbox-reported NAT rating of "strict".
Second, I tried setting up a Default Host at 10.0.1.253 then assigning my Xbox an IP of 10.0.1.253. I assigned this IP only through the Xbox's network settings. It seems like I was supposed to assign the IP to the Xbox using the Airport Admin Utility, but if there's a way of doing so, I don't see it. Also within the Xbox's network settings, I set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 and the gateway to 10.0.1.1 (my Airport Expres). When I tested the connection to Xbox LIVE, I failed at the DNS stage. So I manually set the DNS info to the primary and secondary DNS specified by my ISP (and shown in the Internet tab of Airport Admin Utility). I retested my connection to Xbox LIVE. Now I passed the DNS test but failed the next test, called MTU. I looked up how to set the MTU and did so according to these instructions from the Apple Support pages: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303192. I tried MTU values of 1400, 1500, 1362 (recommended minimum specified on Xbox), and 3000 but was unable to pass the MTU test on the Xbox.
I tried port mapping as explained on the Microsoft Xbox forums (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908874) and further explained here: http://www.jakeludington.com/xbox/20060103xbox_live_connectionproblems.html. I tried to do this with the Port Mapping tab in Airport Admin Utility, but I wasn't able to specify all of the information given in that last link, so I don't know if I did it right.
Hours of work and no success, but this ought to be possible, right? Help?
20" iMac 1.25GHz G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I tried to do this with the Port Mapping tab in Airport Admin Utility, but I wasn't able to specify all of the information given in that last link, so I don't know if I did it right.
As you already know, XBox Live requires three ports to communicate: UDP 88, UDP 3074, & TCP 3074. The AirPort Express Base Station doesn't distinguish between UDP & TCP for port mapping, so you will only need to map one port for the UDP/TCP 3074 values.
Try the following...
Port Mapping tab
- Click "Add"
- Public Port: 88
- Private Address: 10.0.1.253
- Private Port: 88
- Click "Ok"
- Click "Add"
- Public Port: 3074
- Private Address: 10.0.1.253
- Private Port: 3074
- Click "Ok"

Instagram, Facebook, Twitter photos not loading, Getting Kicked off xbox live, random drop outs.

Hi everyone, Here's an issue for you to solve. Im sure it can't be fixed, and I know multiple people that have this issue, and it is unnacceptable. Before I start, here is the router I am using: Telstra Gateway Max. Ok so heres the problem. I have an android phone, well two on my network and they both have the same issue. The iPhones and iPads seem to be OK. i don't have these issues on the computer either (Macbook Pro and Dell Inspiron). When I go onto instagram for example, all of the text loads just fine, but the images just sit on 0% and stay like that until it says unable to download. Facebook is usually ok, but sometimes has the same issue, and Twitter, same as instagram. This also happens on the Google Play Store when trying to download apps, and other random things. I have tried on the 2g and 5g networks and both same issue, but strangely enough, as soon as I connect to 3G/4G network, everything loads great. Why should I have to use my data when at home? Whats the point of paying $200+ a month for a service that doesn't even work! Also, with Xbox Live, this happens on the 360 and Xbox One. I have Two 360's on the network, one being wired (ethernet), the other on wifi. The xbox one is also connected to the same switch as the wired 360. Don't give me any of that garbage about buying a new switch, because this one works perfectly fine.
I have a moderate NAT type on some games, and sometimes I just get randomly disconnected. I have monitored the lights on the router, and they stay normal, some flashing, some solid. Basically, everything is normal. The other xbox's drop off at random times. The annoying thing is, when I connect to the Telstra Air network (off my router) everything loads fine on my phone, and I don't want to be forced to use that terrible 3mbit connection. Oh and while I'm at it, the telstra air app says I don't have a valid account, even though when I manually connect to telstra air through wifi settings on my laptop or phone, it works fine. Back to the xbox, I have forwarded all the ports needed (SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT), I have changed my firewall to low... Basically, Telstra, get your **bleep** together, and help me with my issues, or give me some pointers.

So someone else with Android devices on an entirely different network seems to have the same issues. This doesn't rule out the Android devices at all, in fact it suggests maybe there is more to it
The only way to make sure it's not the other switch introducing problems is to take it out of the equation. That means running direct connections to the modem. I realise it might be a pain in the rear end though. I user ethernet over power for one of xboxs.

Home Hub 3 (type A) compatibility with Xbox Live a...

Just got a new Bt Broadband activated a couple of days ago.
All set up nice, getitng a 8mb download speed which is good for our area.
2 laptops, 1 PC, and a wireless printer all set up using wifi. All good.
Even managed to get Xbox Live connected via wifi.
BUT - when updating any software or games on the XBOX, what used to take seconds is now taking hours!
I even tried my old Dlink router on the new BT Broadband, and it all works fine, but as soon as my Home Hub 3 (type A) is connected, the software updates to the xbox take an age.
All other connections seem fine.
Is it true that Home Hub 3 type 'B' is the best one for using with Xbox Live?
If anyone's had this exact same issue, and managed to solve it - please tell me how.
Thanks
Impster
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Seems to be the same.
The only thing worse (so far) is the BT customer services team. I spent over 3 hours on the phone with various people from BT yesterday. Only when I threatened to cancel the contract did anyone take me seriously.
I really wish I'd stayed with my previous broadband provider.
What I'd like to know is how to resolve this issue - preferably from someone who's had similar experience to mine. I'm not going to go through a troubleshooting process yet again. My HomeHub 3A is simply not compatible with connecting wirelessly with any significant speed to my xbox, nor to my android mobile phone.
I have run every possible check on our line and home network.
The only variable that causes this problem to re-emerge is the Home Hub 3 (type A) which I was sent 2 days ago.

Bridging mac mini to xbox 360 to use xbox live...HELP!

i've done this once before with a previous router i was just trying out and it worked great. however, i purchased a wireless router and cant get it to work again. i've found all the instructions that the internet has to offer when it comes to using your mac as a bridge to get on xbox live...the fact that i've done it successfully hopefully shows that. my problem now comes in the DNS stage...it always fails.
i think the problem is this...in the termminal when i type in ifconfig en0...the inep i get is 192.768.2.1...but when i check to see what my router IP is...it's the same. is this what is causing my problem and not letting me get on xbox live?
when i go to my xbox settings...under IP i know its working because on the xbox live test it passes every time...and just fails at DNS which is where i'm supposed to put my router IP which happens to be the same as my normal IP.
is this the problem?
i called my ISP and they said there's nothing they can do about it...they cant change my router IP. i hope you guys can help. i really want to get on without having to spend 50*100 bucks. thanks.

okay...here's my complete set up. i have my mac mini which is connected to my belkin wireless connection which is upstairs. the belkin router is plugged into my cable modem (road runner if that matters). i pick up a full signal on my mini. from my xbox360 to my mac mini, i have an ethernet cable connected.
when i type in ifconfig en0 in the terminal, the "inet" i get is 192.68.2.1. this is to be used in the IP section of connecting to xbox live as i understand. actually, each time i try to connect, it passes all of the IP tests.
the problem comes with the DNS. from what i understand, what i'm supposed to put in the DNS section of my xbox live is the number i get when i type in DIG in the terminal and then scroll down to where it says server. the number i get there is also 192.168.2.1.
i type that into the dns and it does not work.
my firewall is off...my sharing is on. i'm not sure what to do.
to make sure that my xbox is working, i plugged in my dell laptop and bridged the connections and it worked great. but i need it to work with my mac...at least i want it to. thanks.

Help please, when I use my Macbook Pro internet it crashes our XBox Live

When I use the internet at all on my Macbook Pro, wireless, it crashes the games my DF is playing on xbox live through the the same router but with the ethernet. It doesn't do this with his laptop PC. Any ideas?

Most routers have the option to list DHCP devices connected to them ... often you just use your browser and point to http://192.168.1.1 and you'll get it's home page.
And, the Mac's IP number will be showing in System Preferences/Network/Advanced under the TCP/IP Tab, not sure where the XBox would show it's IP# though.

WRT610N, Xbox Live, Moderen Warfare 2 and nothing but trouble !!

I have been having problems over the last few months with constant drop outs on Xbox live and now specifically MW2. I have tried every option I can think of in the settings (Xbox and Linksys WRT610N) but no luck. I thought I would share my story in hope that either I might be able to help someone with what I have learned so far or get lucky that someone might offer up a solution that I have not been able to work out yet.
Let the story begin ......
Issue: Can connect to Xbox Live but will drop me out of the middle of games (Halo, Live Arcade, etc), and especially MW2 only to bring me back into the same game with my score set back to 0 each time. This happens on every game and every mode. If I am the host of a game then it will boot everyone else out half way through the game, bring up a message that enimies are about to forfeit and then finally rejoin everyone with their scores all set back to 0.
Back Story:
Have tried 3 different routers (this one being the latest) the other was a top of the line Belkin and older Linksys model
Have power cycled and reset and restored factory defaults on all many times.
Have changed out the actual ethanet cables as well.....No luck
Have 2 Xbox's in the House and both produce the same results.
My Current Settings:10N
Product = WRT610N
ISP = Bellsouth
Xbox360 = Hardwired
NAT = Open
PPPoE
IP and DNS are both Manual........
Entered in matching DNS1 & DNS2 into Xbox settings
IP = Manual and sits with DMZ enabled and assigned the Xbox a manual IP address outside Router IP range at .200
Port Forwarding on for 88 & 53 Both (Tried UDP Only) ....53 & 3074 Both
MTU = 1452
Even added in specific Xbox Mac address into the Router page...no luck
Upnp: = Disabled......Tried it enabled as well
Went into QoS in the Application and Gaming section of the Router to try and priortize all the Xbox Live and MW2 advanced ports above and below.
Read on a forum post to try unchecking Filter Anonymous Internet Requests in the Security tab settings....no luck
Called Xbox Live support..............Went to 2nd level tech twice.
They said IW/Activision had given them specific port settings for MW2 that I could try. My intial thought was Houston we might have lift off:....Tried opening additional Ports based of 2nd Level Support:
3658 = UDP
3478 = UDP
3075 = UDP
443 = TCP
5223 =TCP
Unfortunately no luck !
Next I tried reading another million posts and forums to no avail.
Help please, please please

I finally got it to work 10 min ago !!!!!!!
Here is the issue so if others incounter the same problem you will have some potential options to explore.
Having 2 Xboxes going through the Linksys Router to Xbox live is the issue. This is what you need to do in your settings.
Make both Xbox IP's Automatic
DO NOT USE Port Forwarding.............You must enter these in Port Range Triggering:
Xbox Live port settings 80, 88, 53 & 3074
Same for Modern Warfare 2 ports = 3658, 3478, 3075 & 443
On the setup page enable Keep Alive: Redial Period = 180
MTU = 1364
Disable Home Network Defender
Enable Upnp
Disable DMZ
QoS = Enable Internet Access Priority and Add in the ports above and set to High
Add in the Mac addresses of the two Xboxes (you can find these in the advance network settings of you Xbox)
Hope this helps as I have been researching this fix for 2 months and spent 20+hours playing with settings to finally get this to work

Excessive Lag on Xbox Live, other Services ok. Fa...

Hi, hope you can help.
Since swtiching from TalkTalk at the end of February we;ve been getting an unusual and frustrating amount of lag on Xbox live during multi-player, and some PC Games. The overall broadband speed is the same as it was before with Talk Talk and I've tried our old Netgear router, portforwarding in the HomeHub 3 to the Xbox directly etc but no improvement. (Made sure we had open NAT etc)
It can be incredibly frustrating. We're used to occasional lag as it is 'the internet' but this is not the same but hard to describe! We'd not had any problems with Talk Talk but due to the pretty low speeds available in our area we'd signed up for Infinity as soon as it said we could get it.... turned out the availability was 'in error' on the website/order system (the Infinity order was all through and we had an install date etc) , we'd already left Talk Talk in preparation and had no broadband so signed up for BT Broadband while we waited for Infinity to actually be available... All in all, Whta was supposed to be a positive move has left us with a worse connection for the things that are important to the family
Anyway Hope this is ok to do a new post, wasn't sure whether to tag it onto one of the others, but they are getting pretty long.
We are on 'interleaved' at the moment, can the mods help us get switched to Fastpath to see if that improves it?
Posting stats, managed to keep the router on without a reset for 23 days now that we realise a reset doesn't fix anything!

nice stable connection so contact the mods and ask to be moved from interleaved to fast
contact mods
can take up to 5/6 working days for mods to contact you

Connecting to Xbox Live using a Macbook Air?

Okay, so i've had my Macbook Air about a month now and I wanted to use it to connect to xbox live just like I did when I had windows. I bought one of the adapters as the macbook air doesn't have a ethernet port and I have tried a lot of the tutorials and walkthroughs that other people have posted but they all seem to be froma few years ago and don't work for me. If there is anyone that could give me some help I would really appreciate it.
I am also using OS X Mavericks 10.9.2.

Hello BURL3YY,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of steps and helpful advice concerning connection sharing:
