WGA600n and Xbox horror

I just purchased a WRT110 and WGA600n and an xbox.  I have the router and the adaptor talking to eachother.  I want to access media center via the xbox, which is the big goal here.  Media center will come up, but it wont be stable and will crash.  I am not sure what the problem is.  I have consulted xbox and Cisco support.   The problem has not been solved. 
I suspect that the WRT might not have enough power, but the adaptor and xbox are one floor below.  Monitoring the signal strength, it actually seems faster in WEP than WPA, but it bought this congfiguration for the draft N, which I was led to believe was more roboust.
Please advise before I lose my mind.

I had the same problem spent two days working on it with support help from linksys never got anything to work  from them
But on a whim i reset both my router and my wga600n and instead of using the discs that came with them for setup used windows software even used WPA password protection worked on all my devices.
Plugged the WGA600N straight into the xbox360 (did not configure on pc first) had xbox 360 look for networks typed in passcode and everything works like a charm i can stream hd to my xbox.
Hope it works for you to

  • HH5 and Xbox One - randomly open and moderate NAT

    Having this annoying problem where the NAT keeps showing as randomly open and moderate. I have set a static I.p for it with no luck so far. I can switch it on and off a dozen times and it can show open, then be turned on the next dozen times and be moderate.
     The odd thing is that I have a PS4 and Xbox 360 attached and they both show as always having an open NAT. All devices are connected wired. Tearing my hair out over this.  I can't recall the last time I had to mess around with static I.p's a d whatnot. Everything just worked with my old Virginia set up. I do a fair bit of online gaming and so having an open Nat is important to me as even moderate with xbox live can be a real nuisance.  Thanks for any help.

    Well after googling non stop since around 4am this morning I have found what I think the problem is - and that makes the most sense.
     I can't port forward because the HH5 has assigned some of the ports to my Xbox 360 (this was with me only using upnp and NOT having tried any port forwarding) and so now it won't let me manually assign those ports to my Xbox one - hence the error message that I'm getting.
     The worst part is, that upnp SHOULD open those ports as needed when I switch my Xbox One on (I live alone and so both machines are never conencted at the same time) but it isn't, because for some reason it is keeping the shared ports solely for the Xbox 360.
     So I was trying to manually assign those ports with port forwading to force it to open those same ports on my Xbox One...but so far I haven't got as far as doing any port forwading whatsoever.
     I had a router with DD-WRT firmware on my old Virgin connection, and that allowed me to open whatever ports I wanted to whatever device I wanted, but it didn't matter because upnp worked properly on it. Unlike the HH5 which after all my reading has the same problems going back as far as the HH2. The internet is awash with people who couldn't get upnp or port forwading to work how it should.
     So far the only people gettng a stable open NAT seem to be those with one Xbox or the other, but NOT both. Which is ridiculous and only seems to affect home hub users.

  • Ps3 and Xbox 360 already asked many times but no solution works

    Hi,
    first of all I'd like to share with all of you my real disappoint for having bought this Airport Extreme Base Station. I really hope that someone at Apple will read my post and come to my house because I would have just a few words to tell them.
    After 4 years of proficuous cooperation my Netgear WI-Fi router left me and I immediately thought to replace it with an Apple product just to be sure that it would have been easy to install and on top of performances.
    I chose the Airport Extreme which is much more expensive than quite all the other same product but I didn't care about it because I would have brang home an excellent product.....or...at least I thought it !
    Once in my room the soap opera began. I'm not a genius but I consider myself a medium skilled user and, in any case, even it is not my real job, I configured many bigger LANs than my personal ones and I never had such kidn of problem.
    I read many posts where people were asking for information because they couldn't connect their Airport Extreme to their PS3 or Xbox 360 but I never had such kind of problem. It really worked immediately and both consoles worked in few moments.
    My REAL problem is that both of them are terribly slow and I can't do anything online. I can't see streming videos, I can't play online and I can't neither play videos that are on a LAN DLNA server !!!!! It takes about 35 seconds to play a video and some times it has to stop for empty buffering reason. This is really unacceptable.
    I tried so many configurations and nothing changed and I also took a look at some guides but they had been written with old firmwares so they are quite unuseful for me.
    After having asked a friend of mine to give me his router (a Netgear ones) for some days I finally made myself sure that the problem is the Airport Extreme.
    It also has a very poor signal because my iPhone has difficulties to keep the connection in areas where my old router worked fully.
    If only I could turn back time I'd never buy it again but now, having spent to useless my money, could you please let me know a working configuration for the latest firmware 7.4.2 ? I tried to use the previous firmware but I have the same problems.
    There is only a wall separating the Airport Extreme from the PS3 and Xbox and both of them get a 100% of signal but I really don't know what to do.
    Thanks for all the help you could provide me.
    Bye.
    Christian

    Sorry but I have no way to measure the actual throughput for any of my devices (I have 2 Xboxes which have the same problem and even my iPhone suffer of a bad connection).
    In any case I really can't understand why the connection is so bad. I can even get in touch with my ISP to ask them if there is some problem with the connection (maybe a coincidence and the Airport Extreme has nothing to do with it ?????) but the facts remain: even my DLNA server and PS3 connection is slow and I can't clearly see the movies I have in my intenal LAN and also the iPhone show a poor connection to the Airport Extreme and it is because of the Extreme for sure.
    I really don't know what to do.

  • Guys need help is regarding games. I want to install games like commandos, gta vice city, counter strike etc I mean action games in which we do levels, like games in playsatation and xbox ?

    Guys need help is regarding games. I want to install games like commandos, gta vice city, counter strike etc I mean action games in which we do levels, like games in playsatation and xbox ?

    You can only install games that are in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app directly on the iPad - if there are games like those that you mention in your country's store then you can buy and install them. Have you had a look in your country's store ?

  • AirPort Express and xbox

    Hi all
    I recently got an Airport Express for Christmas and want to connect it to both my home sterio and xbox. I have an existing wireless network at my home using a 3rd party wireless router.
    I know that I can wirelessly send music to my home sterio (via the speaker jack), but I can't seem to get the xbox to discover the network (via the ethernet cable). Can I even do this?
    Please let me know, thanks.

    i've tried both automatic, and i've tried manual setting by inputing the IP from both the airport information and the network settings, all with the same results. I know for a fact my internet provider doesn't use PPPoE so that's not the problem. Is there somewhere in the xbox360 settings where I can determine if it's set to DHCP?

  • Updated to 7.3.1, PC and Xbox 360 can't connect

    Hey, anyone else having problems getting PCs and Xbox 360s to connect to the AirPort Extreme after the 7.3.1 update? Wired or wireless, my PC (Vista, with and without SP1) and my Xbox 360 (with the official wireless network adapter) won't connect.

    I am in the same boat...
    7.2 worked great... 7.3.1 does not even show in the network list. Also, downgrading it does not fix the issue?!?!?

  • 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.

    For Firmware Upgrade try this : 
    Download TFTP Utility
    Download Firmware 314 KB
     Double click the tftp.exe file and click run :
    For Server- Enter the IP Address of the router that you assigned.  By default, the router is 192.168.1.1...
    For Password- Enter the password you assigned the router. By default, the router’s password is “admin”.
    For File- Click the triple “…” button and browse for the .bin firmware file...
    Click Upgrade button to start upgrading.  A progress bar should show up to show the progress.
    Once the Upgrade is done 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... 
    You should also open the Ports on your router...

  • WRT54GX4 Wireless Router and Xbox 360 Wireless Networking Adapter

    I just got an Xbox 360 with a Wireless Networking Adapter.  The adapter will recognize the network, but won't connect to it.  Even if I remove the security, the Xbox 360 won't connect.  Is there something else via the router I'm supposed to be doing?  I called Microsoft and they said to open the port settings, but I don't know if that's really the issue and I don't know how to do that if I need to.
    The ports they gave me were:
    TCP 80
    UDP 88
    UDP 3074
    TCP 3074
    UDP 53
    TCP 53

  • Networking my imac and other pc, laptop, vonage, and xbox 360 AAAAAAAAAAAH!

    I posted this in the iMac intel based part before I realized it was not the iMac I have. Oh keepers of the board, I apologize.
    Here is my dilema:
    I need to find a way to make my iMac wireless and don't know what would be best for my set up. I have cable broadband through a rca router, which then hooks up to my vonage phone device, which then connects to my linksys WRT150N which has an emachines pc through ethernet and a sony laptop wireless connected to it. I want the iMac, which is downstairs to be hooked up to the internet wirelessly if possible and my son also has a wireless adapter for his XBOX 360 that he wants to use as well. I know this sounds tres' complicated and I have given lots of information here but if anyone knows what I should get for this situation, I would be most appreciative! Airport of some sort? Third party stuff that's compatible? I am so confused! Would a better router be the answer? and a wireless thingee for the iMac?

    Simply connect the RCA modem to the Linksys router. The iMac, Vonage, PC laptop and XBox will then connect wirelessly to the Linksys. To make the iMac G4 wireless purchase the Airport Extreme card from Apple:http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=M88 81LL/A

  • Skype and Xbox 360 kinect

    Any plans on having Skype App for Xbox 360 with Kinect?

    I'm extremely disappointed with this response. I've been a fan of windows for my entire life. I was even a microsoft developer for 12 years. However, Microsoft is dropping the ball and I'm finding it extremely difficult to continue my loyalty.
    1. Windows 8 == failure (Vista all over)
    2. Love the tablet but can't justify the cost (Bought Android which is equally as good for 1/2-1/3 the price)
    3. Love the phone and xbox integration
    4. Extremely pissed off that a multi billion dollar company can't answer a simple question and just leave everyone asking questions that go unanswered.
    I may just end up buying sony and going android. I have no more loyalty and I have done nothing but stick up for you for years.

  • 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.
