How to DMZ my Xbox

I got the new E4200 router as I had issues with my old router. I was able to DMZ my console with the old router. But with my new router my xbox IP has changed and I want to know which numbers to use and how to DMZ my Xbox with Cisco Connect. Thanks, for the help
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As long as you aren't using a static IP, when you go to select the device to put in dmz; it should allow you to open the DHCP table and you too should be able to identify which device is your Xbox.
I don't work for Cisco. I'm just here to help.

  • How to connect to Xbox Live with the Actiontek GT704-WGB wireless router

    If the title got you here, then you are probably a Verizon DSL customer who is trying to connect your Xbox to Xbox Live with the Actiontek GT704-WGB wireless router and are getting nothing but errors saying, "your NAT is set too high", or, "Your MTU setting is too low", etc.  Well, after many calls to Xbox support, Actiontek support, and Verizon support, I finally came up with the solution myself.
    All that is needed is a little techie know-how about router settings and you'll do just fine!  However, if you are uncomfortable with doing it yourself (and it is really really easy to do!) then you can call Verizon support and have a tech support rep remotely conntect to your PC and make the changes for you: however, you have to speak with someone in advanced tech support and to do that you have to agree to a 1 year support contract to the tune of $14.95 per month in order for them to do it!  Scam???  You be the judge!
    So, here are the steps to take to get it working and by the way, YOU CAN NOT GET THE XBOX TO CONNECT TO THIS ROUTER WIRELESSLY!!  YOU MUST CONNECT YOUR XBOX TO THE ROUTER WITH AN ETHERNET CABLE IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK!!!  If you don't heed this warning, you will unfortunatly go through all the steps below, only to find that you get the same errors but, ethernet is faster than wireless so it's better!....right?.....right?   (hears crickets chirping)....right?  Oh well, I tried!  Also, you must have your Xbox on in order to change the router settings (which you'll see why later) Anyway, here's the steps:
    1) On your PC, open a browser window and type in the address bar:  192.168.1.1 and press enter.
    2) You will then see the interface on which you will make changes to the router's settings.  If at any time you are prompted for a username and password (which should happen right after you press enter) the defaults are: username: admin password: password.  If you have changed these, enter what you changed them to.
    3)Click on the icon on the top labelled "Advanced Setup"
    4)In the left section, click "WAN IP Address"
    5)At the warning screen, click "yes"
    6)Scroll down until you see "MTU setting" and enter 1370.  NOTElease don't be tempted to either enter 1500 or leaving it at 1500 (which is the default) because you might know that 1500 is the maximum at which this can be set which is TOO HIGH AND WILL NOT WORK!  Trust me and enter 1370 and then click on "apply"
    7)Click on the top icon labelled "Security"
    8)In the left column, click on "applications".  This is where we are going to open the 3 ports that Xbox Live uses to communicate with your Xbox.
    9)In the drop down box labelled "PC Name" select "Xbox 360". This is why you had to have your console on and connected cuz if you didn't, it would not show up on the drop down list!
    10)Under "category" click on the bubble next to "user"
    11)Click on "New" which is one of the blue buttons near the bottom.
    12)As for the rule name, I entered "Xbox" but you can put whatever you want but I'd use that so you know it's the ports you opened for the console.
    13)For protocol, select TCP. (Yes you will also open the same ports for UDP but for some reason if you select TCP.UDP instead of doing them seperatly it doesn't work.....I dunno why!?
    14)For all 3 "Port start", "Port End", and "Port Map Start" put the # 80.
    15)Click "apply"
    16)Now, select UDP and put the same port # 80 and again click "apply"
    17)Repeat steps 13 through 16 except with the numbers 3074 and 53, clicking apply after each one.  What you should have now on the bottom are a list of all the ports you opened, one TCP and one UDP for each number totalling 6 entries.
    18)Click "back" to return to the Applications screen.
    19)If you have to, select Xbox 360 for PC name, and click the bubble next to "user" and you'll now see the entry called "Xbox" or whatever you called it.
    20)Click that entry to highlight it and then click the blue "add" button to the left and then click "apply" at the bottom.
    21)Close the browser screen and turn off your PC and Xbox and any other hardware connected to the router.
    22)Turn the router off and unplug it and wait about 5 minutes.  It can take this long for any residual current in the router to dissapate and for the NAT table to clear itself.
    23)Turn on the router and wait for the internet light to come on green meaning the router has booted and has an internet connection.
    24)Turn on the Xbox AND ONLY THE XBOX!
    25)There is no need to go into network setting as when the Xbox is connected by ethernet, it automatically configures and connects intself.  You can, however go into network settings and perform a connection test but this to is not necessary.
    You now should be able to connect to Xbox Live!  If not, you've done something wrong and must either go through all the steps again or let Verizon do it for you (for a fee that is).

    I followed jtktlw's instructions to the letter.  Problem was I had already enabled UPnP before doing so.  Afterward I disabled UPnP and rebooted....no change.  I reset the MTU to 1500...boom, it works.  Seems for me all I needed was to open the right ports to get it to work.

  • How to connect my xbox 360 through my linksys - WRT54G

    Hi,
    I do not understand why my xbox's built in wireless system does not find my linksys router (in order to play online via the internet) providing that other devices in my house such as laptops and phones do. Iv'e heard that these routers may be setup to block video games, however I already tried playing with some of my router settings on the internet. It would be greatly appreciated if someone could help me!
    Thanks

    If your Laptops are able to go online wirelessly and they are able to see your wireless network. First thing which you can check is the distance between your XBOX and Wireless Router. Try to reduce the distance between them.Login to the router setup page and check if the Wireless SSID is Enable, Try to change the wireless channel on your Router and check if your XBOX can view your wireless network.
    Check if the Wireless Adapter is installed properly on your XBOX. Try to unplug the wireless adapter from your XBOX and replug it back and then search for the wireless network.

  • How can i connect xbox to time capsule?

    Hi, I am (whilst being shouted at by my 11 year old son), trying to connect Xbox 360 to a time capsule. I tried last year without success, and afer chatting with a bloke yesterday in an Apple store, I thought I would try again. No luck. I've tried inputting every set of numbers and address I can find, but the Xbox, just will not connect. Is there a simple set of instructions that will do this? The forums I've looked at have information that is beyond me. The time capsule is connected to a Virgin media modem via ethernet. The Xbox Live connects via ethernet cable to modem just fine. I would just like it to work wirelessly so I don't have to keep plugging the cable back into the time capsule and rebooting. As an alternative is there a piece of kit that would let both the Xbox and the time capsule remain wired up to the modem? There only seems to be one connector however. Many thanks in advance.

    Connect an Ethernet cable from a LAN <-> port on the Verizon gateway to the WAN port (circle of dots icon) on the Time Capsule.
    Then, temporarily connect a spare Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule to help AirPort Utility "see" the Time Capsule. Once you have the Time Capsule configured and updated with new settings, you can remove the spare Ethernet cable.
    If that is not successful, you will need to perform a Factory Default Reset on the Time Capsule as follows:
    Pull the power plug on the Time Capsule
    Wait 4-5 minutes
    Hold in the reset button on the Time Capsule and while you continue to hold it in, plug the power back to the Time Capsule
    Keep holding the reset button for 8-10 seconds before you release it
    Wait 30-40 seconds for the Time Capsule to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
    Restart your Mac, then open AirPort Utility to configure the Time Capsule

  • How can I play xbox games on my macbook pro??

    I travel a lot and I cannot take my xbox with me everywhere I go. I have a macbook pro and want to be able to play xbox games on my mac. Is there anyway I can do this? Safely?

    The XBox uses three PowerPC processors that run very very hot and need constant power and Mac's use Intel processors that run very cool in comparison.
    It would take a complete rewrite of the entire games code to make it work on a Mac.
    So in short, it can't be done. Sorry.
    But I'll clue you 2 free 3D games you can run on your MacBook Pro
    Cube 2 Suaerbraten and Nexiuz Classic.  That should help get you by.

  • How to use orignal XBOX gamepad controller S under OSX ? (not xbox 360)

    Hi,
    i'd like to use my original xbox (not XBOX 360 !) controller on my MBA running under OSX 10.7.
    I tried to install Xbox HID Driver 1.3.4 for Mac OS X from http://xhd.sourceforge.net, but installation failed under Mac OS X 10.7 Lion.
    I'm getting an error message during installation.
    So, is it possible to use my old xbox controller with my mac ?
    Thanks !
    Here is the controller what I'm talking about : the "controller S"
    I bought a USB adapter for this controller :

    I am trying to do the exact same thing. Like you I failed to install that driver. Doesn't seem to be much else out there. Let me know if you have found anything. Think I will just have to step up and buy another controller.
    Sorry to be of no help..but you're not the only one to have this problem if that means anything

  • How do I get xbox 360 to connect to wireless.

    We cannot get xbox360 to connect to the wireless network despite just purchasing an AirPort Extreme.

    You can Buy a linksys WAP54G that will work as an access point to provide you with wireless connectivity. Then you need wireless adapters for 360s or you can try WGA54Gs from linksys to  connect XBox wirelessly.

  • How does DMZ work

    the DMZ config part of the router confuses me. The e3000 prompts for the IP address of the system to be
    exposed to the internet. That IP has to be within the router's world:192.168.1 xxx . What I don't follow is does that exposed system now receive all the traffic that normally goes to the router?  If the IP
    address of the router is 50.25.45.23, will port 80 traffic to that IP address now be directed to port 80 on the single PC in the DMZ?
    thanks,

    My basic understanding as that you can assign 1 machine to be the DMZ server on your ADSL/Modem/Router.This means that all incoming port requests get assigned to that machine.
    For example :
    DSLRouterIP: 192.168.1.1
    DMZPCIP: 192.168.1.2
    Here,all incoming requests for any port go directly to 192.168.1.2
    A DMZ is far easier to set up than port forwarding but exposes your entire computer to the Internet. Sometimes TCP/IP applications require very specialized IP configurations that are difficult to set up or are not supported by your router. In this case, placing your computer in the DMZ is the only way to get the application working. Placing a computer in the DMZ should be considered ‘temporary’ because your firewall is no longer able to provide any security to it.
    I would suggest you to do port forwarding instead of DMZ if you know the port no.

    You can't. Thunderbolt IS a video input but Xbox doesn't export thunderbolt compliant video. Target display mode is intended to be used with another Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3924

  • How works DMZ with RV110W?

    Greetings everyone,
    It has been for several days that I tried to configure the DMZ with my new router but without success. I just need to get in my DMZ one machine hosting my shoutcast server. I have already opened the port used in my router:
    Firewall > Single port forwarding
    Application: Web Radio
    External port: 7777
    Internal port: 7777
    Protocole: TCP
    IP address: 10.10.10.101
    Enable: OK
    And for the DMZ:
    Networking > LAN > DMZ Host
    DMZ: Enable
    VLAN: 1
    Host IP Address: 10.10.10.101
    Could anyone explain me what's wrong ? I'm starting to regret my purchase

    Microsoft made many changes between the original preview and the current preview, so what worked in the earlier version may not work in the current one, and vice versa. Again, Apple's software is not yet supported in Windows 8 and almost certainly will not be until Win 8 is officially released, if then. You may be able to get the standalone installer to work, but if you can't, you'll just have to wait for a supported release, or take the issue up on a forum for the Windows 8 Preview and see if someone there can help you.
    Regards.
