Fios and xbox live issues

Ok well ive read all the stuff on the internet about updating the firmware and it should work. My problem is I have the Gen 2 router, so the firmware isnt compatible at all. Im not even trying to do xbox live wirelessly, i have an ethernet ran. My wireless laptop and my wired desktop computer have been running awesome internet since I got FiOS installed about 4 months ago. Just got my xbox and now im having these issues. Ive tried restarting both the router and the xbox, ive set the router settings back to default. idk what to do, help me out!!!
edit- thru the xbox network connection wizard thing, it looks like its not even seeing a connection at all. could it be i have the wrong type of cable? i just bought it, its a belkin fastcat 5e patch cable. is this the right type of cable?

Cable type is fine.
Couple things to check....
make sure the cable is plugged into one of the lan ports on the router (yellow plugs) not the wan connection (white plug). Easy to make the mistake if you have coax style internet via fios.
If connected correctly, do a quick loop test with the cable to make sure that cable is ok. Take both ends of the cable and plug both ends into the router. for example, plug end one in port one and end two in port two. make sure that both lights light up. If not likely bad cable. If so, cable is likely OK.
If cable tests OK, and you have it connected correctly to the lan, then the problem is likely with the Nic on the Xbox. Try going into the network settings in the xbox and reset to defaults on the xbox.

E3000 and Xbox Live Issues

Hi All,
So I originally had problems with my xbox where the wireless would drop out. I chaned some settings and I also set up port forwarding for my xbox which seems to have stabilized my network. However, when attempting to download certain files from xbox Live, my router will frequently freak out, reset (so all network connectivity disappears) and after a few moments, everything comes back up again.
I have the xbox 360 as the only device accessing the 5ghz wireless network. Network mode is "Mixed", Channel Width is "Auto", Channel is curently set to "36" as before it ws also set to "Auto DFS" but experienced more frequent drop-outs when simply logging into xbox Live. Again, SIngle Port Forwarding for just this device is enabled. Anyone have any other suggestions? Should I try a different Channel?
Thanks,
DB

I have plenty of other wireless devices (2 iphones, a mac mini, laptop). Whats the advantage of moving everything over to the higher bandwidth when everything Ive been told suggests that you dont want to crowd the higher bandwidth with devices that shouldnt and cant take advantage of the higher bandwidth? I mean, why did I spend money on this router to begin wth if it cant even support the devices I have now? Sorry, this is more than a little frustrating and I guess I would still like to hear some more ideas of what to try.

Newest 3TB Time Capsule with Motorola SB6121 and Xbox live issues.

I just bought a new 3TB Time Capsule but am having issues with the speed of my internet and connecting to XBL. I use Time Warner and have a Motorola SB 6121 modem. The modem is brand new as well and worked perfeclyt with my old router(Trendnet TEW-gr633). I want to use the time capsule as my only router but it is only testing out between <1-2 on the download. I was getting 15-25 on the download before the TC. I am also having issues connecting to the network on my xbox 360S as well.
Any help with adjusting the settings on my TC would be much appreciated.

I would suggest adjusting the Time Capsule's Ethernet WAN port setting using the AirPort Utility. By default, this option is set to Automatic. I would recommend changing it to "1000 Mbps / Full Duplex" to see if this helps.

New Fios G1100 and Multiple Xboxs Connected to xbox live issues.

I just upgraded my router from the Actiontec MI424WR to the G1100. Now I am into an issue with Fios keeping a connection to xbox live on selected xbox devices. I have 3 xbox 360 and 2 xbox one connecting to the network. Both Xbox One maintain solid connection to live, but the 360 experience I have a totally different experience. My set up has 1 Xbox One Wired, 1 wireless. I have 2 xbox 360 wireless and 1 wired. I am also experiencing problems with one of my desktops which is wired that randomly loses a connection to internet. I been using this TRENDnet 8-Port 10/100Mbps GREENnet Switch (TE100-S80G) to help with wired connections. Both Xbox Ones on the network remain connected at all times, or at least I haven't seen a drop. My experience with my xbox 360s are completely different from my Xbox One.They all drop connection randomly every 5 to 20 min. I can immediately sign back in , but this continuosly happens. I was able to get one xbox 360 to maintain a continuous connection by putting it IP address and enabling DMZ on it. I have tried port forwarding but that doesn't work. Anybody have any suggestions or solution? Or should I just shipped back the G1100 and go back to Actiontec MI424WR.

6) Turn off your modem, router, and Xbox...Wait for a minute...
7) Plug the modem power first, wait for another minute and plug the router power cable, wait another minute and turn on the Xbox and test it...it will connect...

Xbox live issues. (please help) :)

Hi there, I am having trouble with my xbox live connection, I can sign in to XBL but it does take a few minutes to sign me in, Also when I play games (I mainly always play FIFA) There is a slight lag when im in a match with someone, My players not responding when pressing buttons, Like when I shoot it will take a second or two to shoot which is not normal.
I previously had connection issues and had to have an engineer fix something in my line, Which seemingly has worked perfect for my laptop as everything seems fine, I can load webpages fine with no trouble and speedtester results are as expected. So it may be down to something to do with my XBOX, I use a wireless connection as it is upstairs, but I have tried wired and it is still slow.

Problems with NAT and xbox live

i could once connect to xbox live using my westell 6100g which i received as an upgrade from the regular 6100 about 5 days ago. It worked fine yesterday and today it decided to change my NAT from "Open" to "Moderate".
how can i access my NAT so i can fix this frustrating problem? or how can i fix this ? I tried microsofts solutions including port forwarding but nothing works. my guess is my only option is to change the NAT but the interface of westell 6100's page is barely user friendly, and im a tech savvy guy. any help ?

Time Capsule, Airport Express and Xbox Live

Recently I went out and bought a Time Capsule 1TB hoping to extend my wireless network. I knew that Apple products wouldn't usually help extend a DLINK network so it came as no surprise when I could not extend my DLINK network. My solution was to buy a new Airport Express, disable the wifi on the DLINK router and extend the Airport Expresses network via the Time Capsule.
The current situation is: DLINK <-> Ethernet <-> Airport Express Wireless Time Capsule <-> Ethernet <-> Xbox360
The issue is the Time Capsule as far as I can see. For apparently no reason it will change from a solid green status light to a flashing amber status light. Signing my Xbox into Xbox Live seems to be a trigger, but the Time Capsule goes amber even when the Xbox isnt on at all. When it does change to flashing amber I am no longer able to detect it within Airport Utility and as such am unable to diagnose the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Here it works fine. I have a Time Capsule connected to my ADSL modem. I had to buy an all new Airport Express 802.11n, though, because my old AE could not extend my network.
On an all 802.11n setup you just check the "Allow this network to be extended" on the master (Time Capsule), and choose "Extend a wireless network" on the remotes.
The X-Box is connected with an Ethernet cable to the Airport Express, and connection to X-Box Live works fine.
Good luck!

Xbox live issues

Hi there,
I will try to be as specific as possible with my problem and hopefully someone can help
I currently have BT infinity broadband and have done for about a year now always with very few issues
When i first got my router i had to forward my ports to enable me to use xbox live i followed an online tutorial and all was great
Recently (about 2 weeks ago) i started getting an issue whereby my xbox live gets disconnected and i can instantly reconnect, i also use a laptop, iphone and ipad all of which suffer no internet downtime.
It may be completely unrelated but i started getting these issues around the same time i started streaming lovefilm on my xbox 360, i sas halfway threw a film when the first disconnection happened.
There seems to be absolutely no pattern to the disconnections, i could be on xbox live for 2 mins or 20 minutes but once it disconnects once, it does it time and time again in very quick succession, i have checked my routers settings and nothing has changed
I have tried setting a static ip which did not work, ive tried reseting my hub to factory settings and reconfigiring this again did not work, i have messed around with settings on xbox 360 and again did not work.
I have spoken to xbox live support in regards to this matter and they say it is an isp provider issue, what do you guys reckon?
Just ran a number of speed tests at speedtest.net,
Ping: 30 - 35
Download: 25 - 30 mb/s
Upload: 3 - 5 mb/s
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just a couple of questions.
Have you tried using different Ethernet ports on the home hub, including the Gigabit port?
How long is the Ethernet cable between the home hub and the Xbox?

Xbox Live issues - can anyone help

Hello - I am hoping someone can help me out with some Xbox Live connection issues that are driving me crazy. (Please bear in mind that I am a novice with these issues).
I am attempting to connect to XBox Live via the Xbox wireless adapter and the WRT54GS router. I have the router hardwired via ethernet port to a desktop computer. Here are the problems:
1. The connection is very weak and spotty, with frequent disconnects. I would say that I get a successful connection to Xbox live about half the time. The failure message seems to be different every time. At best, I get only one red bar on the Xbox Network Settings. Usually, I have to unplug and re-plug in the router to get online.
2. I tried to help the connection by buying a wireless range expander. However, when the range expander is plugged in, either I am unable to connect or it connects but I am unable to download any updates or content or marketplace runs very slowly. I assume there is some configuration problem with the expander, but I have no idea how to fix it.
3. Even when I am connected, if my wife turns on her laptop I get disconnected.
4. When I call Xbox support, they tell me it is a problem with the router. When I call Linksys they tell me it is a problem with Xbox Live.
Can anyone help? I have read a couple of posts about setting static IP addresses and opening ports, but I don't know how to do this. And would it even help?
Thank you!!!

hi... logon to router's setup page, open I.E. and in the address bar type 192.168.1.1 it would ask for username and password, put "admin" (default password) as a password, try changing channel to 11, go to advanced wireless settings reduce beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304, change Transmission rate to 54Mbps, also try upgrading latest firmware on the router, go to www.linksys.com/download and download the latest firmware for the router, logon router's setup page again and click on "administration" >> firmware upgrade and try upgrading latest firmware...
click on "application & gamings" tab...and try triggering 88, 3074 ports on the router for X-Box...reduce MTU to 1365 on the router.

Question regarding WRT54G and XBOX LIVE

I'm having trouble with XBOX live and when I called support they told me I had to change the ports on my Linksys from moderate to open...does anyone know how to do this?

Here is a LINK that may help you. I have never set up a Xbox but a lot has been posted in here about it.

Time Capsule and Xbox live

Hello all!
I coming here because I'm having a real problem getting Time Capsule full set up with my network any help would be much appreciated! Here is my problem.
I got a 1T Time Capsule yesterday and got it all set up as the main base station for my network, everything is set up fine in terms of my 2 Mac's being backed up with Time Machine and being able to surf the net wirelessly and I have a base station upstairs just to boost the single to the iMac. The problem I am having is I can't connect to xbox live, when I do the xbox test it keeps giving me the error "can't obtain IP address from router or modem". I have tired a few things already with no luck I went in to the DHCP setting and added my xbox MAC address directly to the Time Capsule. Also going into the NAT settings and checking off "Enable default host at" and then entering 35 at the end to match up with what I put on the other screen. I tried the whole unplug for 10 min and re-power everything nothing worked.
My setup is pretty simple I think, I got the Time Capsule under my TV stand right net to my 360 so I can plug my 360 right into the time capsule. My Time Capsule is about 20-25 feet from my modem and I got my Mac Mini and a iMac hooked up to the network, I also have a Airport express upstairs just to bot the single to the iMac. Both Mac's have up to date snow leopard software 10.6.2 I'm using DSL not cable.
If anyone can give me any help I would really appreciate it!

Howdy,
I can't help on the TC setup, but can only suggest a few things for you to try XBox (360?) to router. You probably have tried these already:
1. Check the ethernet cable and ethernet port on the router works.
2. Instead of using the Automatic option on the XBox to get IP settings, enter in the IP, DNS and gateway settings manually;
3. I have sometimes come across ethernet not switching to the right speed. The Gigabit port on the TC has to auto-sense the 10/100Mb XBox and auto-switch. Can't find anywhere to force the Xbox to connect at 100Mb, rather than auto-detect.
Are there any router logs to tell what's happening?
Another way would be the enable internet sharing on your mac, plug the ethernet cable from the xbox to the mac. I've done this with a pc and it works. However, I haven't tried it with the apple kids.
Obviously one of the draw backs is the the mac has to be up and running. Disable any energy mode on the mac to stop the wlan port from sleeping.
Good Luck.

WRT310N and XBOX Live

I recently installed a new wireless WRT310N. I have one computer hard wired to the router (Time Warner-Roadrunner) and 2 that are wireless, all working with no problems. My son cannot connect his XBOX "live". We keep getting a message "IP address failed."
The people at XBOX are telling me that the 310N is "too advanced" at this point and they can't support it. They say I could connect by using an ethernet cable from the router to the XBOX but since these are in different rooms of my home, it isn't feasible without running a lot of cable. Has anyone else experienced this and does it make sense that the 310N is "too advanced" to work on a wirelss connection with XBOX?

Try this settings on wireless router ....
Please click on the tab "Application and gaming" and click on sub
tab "Port range forwarding"
1) On the first line in Application box type in "Xbox", in start box
type in 88, in end box type in 88, in protocol keep it both, in ip
address type in 192.168.1.20 and give a check mark on enable box.
2)   On the second line in Application box type in "Xbox", in start box
type in 3074, in end box type in 3074, in protocol keep it both, in ip
address type in 192.168.1.20 and give a check mark on enable box.
3) Now save the settings
4) Once you return to the setup page, click on the tab "Administration"
and disable the UPNP and save the settings.
5) Now assign the given ip address on your xbox
   ip address :- 192.168.1.20
   subnet mask :- 255.255.255.0
   default gateway :- 192.168.1.1
Please assign the dns address on the xbox
primary dns :- 4.2.2.2
secondary dns :- 192.168.1.1
6) Please try to test your xbox live.

BEFW11S4 V4 and Xbox 360 issues

Back when I had Halo 3, I could play and lag would be the only problem. I recently got FFXI however and I keep getting a 0250 error. A lot of people tell me I need to forward my ports but I don't think that's it since I didn't have to do that for Halo 3. Others say it may be a firmware thing. When I try to update the file, it just fails and I don't know how to fix that.
Is it my router that's causing this problem or is it the server's problem (Sometimes the issue with FFXI and the same error) either way, I'm losing day by day on my free trial and I can't update the game because of the error.

WRT160NL and XBOX + AP issues

I've installed a WRT160NL in my home as the main router. I've correctly set up the wired network and also the wireless one, as long as I get Internet access with all my devices: desktop PC, netbook, iPod Touch and XBOX console. With this last device I'm having some speed problems. I connect the XBOX to the WRT160NL through a Conceptronic C54APM Access Point. The console has Internet access but it's really slow. I've activated the UPnP Media Server on the router to access to the shared USB external link, but the reading of directories is extremely sloooow.
I would like to know which is the protocol used by the WRT160NL to share the contents of the HD I've attached in the "normal" sharing mode and also in the UPnP. The console has several sharing formats supported, but I don't know id the offered by the Linksys is SMB, NFS, etc.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
Vuela, vuela, V.O.M.I.T.O.N.!!!

Are you facing the Low connectivity on your other computer also while accessing the internet on PC, Noteboot, IPOD? or you are just facing the problem with your XBOX. Have you tried to mapp the drive on your computer and check if its still working on your computer also? If it works perfectly fine on your PC's then i think you need to check the settings on Conceptronic C54APM access point.
