Problem "trying" to play with other people on Xbox 360 Live

I am using a WRT54G v. 5 router with the latest firmware. I have not been able to play with any player online on any game for around a week now, no matter what I do, but I can download demos, and stuff. I also can't view any players whatsoever via the Players tab in the Xbox 360 guide button thing, so there is definately something wrong with my router. Any suggestions?

Something also I should mention is that I've called the xbox 4-800 live xbox thing or whatever, and they said it was my router too.
I've also tried DMZ but it still didn't work out, as for the Port forwarding, I couldn't find anything that would let me give my Xbox 360 an ip address, so I just used the one on my client table.
Beforethen, I was also using DI-604 router too, but that didn't work out either, even though I was able to assign it to 192.168.1.1, but I read somewhere on here you aren't supposed to do that. I haven't tried it out fully with my WRT54G v 5 though since I can't give my Xbox 360 a static ip address like I could easily in my DI-604 router.
And anyway, i'm still stuck and unable to play with anybody on Live thanks to my router(WRT54G v. 5), so if can anybody see this and give out suggestions, or see what my problem is?

-My wifi connection is running strong
-All the devices run the same version of iOS

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

I downloaded the "born to be rich" on my 5s. Will I use data if I play it even if I'm not playing against other people on the internet?

I downloaded the app "born to be rich" on my 5s. If I play it even if I'm not playing against other people on the internet, will I use my data by playing it?

I'm unfamiliar with that particular game. However, you can test it for yourself. Put the phone in Airplane mode. Does the game still work? If so, it's not using data. Also, contact the developer.
Best of luck.

Are my photos in photo stream when the option of shared photo streams is on, are they shared with other people automatically?

Your photos are not shared automatically. You must select photos and share them with others manually.

My iMessage only works with one contact in my phone. I text several people that have the iphone 4s, theirs works with other people. But mine only works with one person. Why?

Clicked buy book. Says two photo boxes need photos but there are photos. Tried replacing with other photos. No luck. Help? in them. I tried to replace with other photos

Finished photo book. Clicked buy book. It said two boxed needed photos although already filled. Tried to replace with other photos no luck. Help!

What iPhoto version and theme are you using? Do you have any full page photos in the book? If so make sure the layout is not this one for a one photo per page with a photo background:
So check the layout for the pages to see if you have one that requires a photo for the page background. The screenshot above is for iPhoto 9.

TS1398 I have an original iPad 32 why can't I connect on my home wi-fi but can connect anywhere else. No problems at home connect with other iPads and MACs.

I have an original iPad 32 why can't I connect on my home wi-fi but can connect anywhere else? No problems at home connect with other iPads and MACs.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

WRT54GL setup problem for xbox 360 live

I am new to wireless networks, and trying to setup a wireless network for my step-sons XBOX 360 live. I purchased a WRT54GL wireless router, and a Xbox wireless adapter MN-740.
I wired in the WRT54GL into my Windstream DSL network at home, and used the automated phone system to get the internet backup, and running. But, when trying to install the software on the enclosed CD, after typing in the IP address, and gateway address, I get "router configuration error".
Any ideas, or links to help threads would be great.
Thanks, Jon

For router set-up follow this
For XBox follow this :
Open an Internet Explorer browser page.In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1
Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
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 88 and End box type in 88, leave the protocol as both and under ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and check the enable box...
2) On the second line in Application box type in PQR, in the start box type in 3074 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...
3) On the third line in Application box type in XYZ, in the start box type in 53 and End box type in 53, leave the protocol as both and under ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and check the enable box and click on Save Settings...
3) Once you return to the set up page click on the Security tab and uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...
4) Click on set-up and change the MTU Size to 1452 and click Save Settings...
5) 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...
6) Also assign the DNS Addresses on the Xbox
Primary dns :- 4.2.2.2...Secondary dns :- 192.168.1.1
7) Turn off your modem, router, and Xbox...Wait for a minute...
8) 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...

HT1689 In a household with one email address but 3 or more devices, we have trouble playing games like Gems, Draw Free etc. with other people. How can we solve this easily?

In a household with multiple devices but one email address, we have problems playing games such as Draw Free, Gems, etc with others. What is the easiest solution?

Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want. But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud. Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
To create a new icloud account, go to

Problem initiate AV chat with other ichat (both windows & Mac)..

I'm able to accept ichat AV from both windows (aim 5.9) and from os x user; however, whenever I initiate ichat connection to either mac or windows user, I keep getting the error:
"Failed to start video chat because user did not respond", but the user did respond..
I'm able to "accept" AV chat from other windows/mac user without any problem.
I've done the following so far, turn off firwall on my imac.. configure port forwarding on my 2wire router following the apple support article (tho, my windows machine is also behind this firewall and I was not able to initiate chat with the windows box).
I saw a previous discussion about this problem someone else has and the suggestion was to reboot the machine.. which I did that and it still didn't help. Oh, I did update to the most recent ichat program as well.
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Ralph,
I tried chatting with RjinWI last night and I was able to initiate an AV ichat with him (mac version) bu† I was not able to initaite AV ichat with RjinWI PC, I was no† able to initiate another AV ichat with another Mac user on the list (unfortunately, I forgot who that was) but I was able to initiate with ichatavtesting. My Buddies defintely can ichat with others and he may also initiate a chat to my imac.
Since then, I have upgraded my firmware which didn't help.. but a small break through was that after I reboot my imac (without having any program running on the imac), I started my ichat and I was then able to initiate AV chat with RjinWI PC.. but a few hours later (after I open my thunderbird, firefox).. I was having problem initiating AV chat with RjinWI PC again... pretty strange?
Since then, I restarted my imac again and now it's working again.. and I have both firefox and thunderbird open.. and AV chat with RjinWI PC is still working.
At least with this info, the problem might not be with my router afterall? I wonder if there is any program that might be blocking the port(s) or using the same ports (I read about the VOIP program issue with ichat, which I'm not using)? So far I have started opening one program at a time and see if I may duplicate the problem (at first I thought it might have been one of the widget program.. "doppler radar" and "live web cam" but I have disable and re-enabled them.. and yet my ichat is still functioning as we speak). If you have any other idea, please let me know. If I am able to gather more info.. I'll be sure to post more info. Thanks again.
