WRT1900 & 2 XBox 360 = Sudden Disconnects

Hi there,
We have been using the WRT1900AC with two Xbox Ones without a problem. But recently when we startup two Xbox 360's and game for a while (5 mins max) the WRT1900AC disconnects/reboots. The LED's on the Frontpanel all go off and it's starts up again.
All XBox's are connected wired.
Mediapriority is off.
Ports for Xbox live are triggered.

I'm getting really tired of this device. The sudden disconnects, the loss of Wireless Connectivity, the slow Firmware upgrades....

Tried changing MTU.
After 5 mins playing CoD:BOII on two Xbox 360, router resets.
While one Xbox 360 can play without problems.
Again, no problem with 2 xbox ones.

My Xbox 360 keeps disconnecting for no apparent reason

I have a linksys WRT120N, and comcast internet. It worked fine for about a month or so, and now over the last 4 days, i'll get booted from Xbox Live for no reason at all every 10-20 minutes, without any lag. One moment the game is running fine and the next i'm disconnected.
I have the 360 wired to the modem, as well as my desktop. the desktop doesn't have any disconnect issues at all, and i can immediately resign in to XBox Live. i've done the port forwarding, updated my firmware, my NAT is open and checked my MTU, and none of it helps. XBL works perfectly if i have it plugged directly into my modem.
please help, this is driving me crazy!

Whats the MTU size you have setup on your Router? The MTU size on your Router should be set to 1365. Since you have updated the firmware on your Router, have you resetted your Modem and re-configured all the settings on it again? If not then, 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...

IPhone 2.0 & Wireless Xbox 360 Controller

Does any one's iPhone w/ 2.0 disconnect their wireless Xbox 360 Controller while using the new apps?

I did actually have my Xbox 360 controller disconnect in the middle of a game for the first time yesterday. It was fully charged. My iPhone 3g was on and located within 5 feet of it, but it was not being used so I can't believe it'd be related.
The thing is, Microsoft uses a proprietary wireless communication protocol (which is where there's no wireless third party apps) so it would be very hard to believe that it would interfere with the iPhone or any other phone. The iPhone definitely doesn't have any type of signal receiver or transmitter in it that's unique and many other phones have the same and don't cause problems.

How do you safely disconnect a iPod form a Xbox 360?

I have a Xbox 360, plugged in my iPod 5th Gen, and it works wondefully well. The tunes are all arranged as iPod interface, ie scroll by album, song, artis etc.
However how do I safely disconnect? ie on my PC I do a eject through itunes, but as the "don not disconnect" is on the Ipod how do I eject it when connected to my Xbox 360?
I have exit the music app but done know when to eject?
please help
thanks

no not onthe iPod I mean, I havent got access there, it just shows the normal red sign and "do not disconnect" message on the iPod.
What I meant was on the Xbox 360 it has the menus (not all) just the music menu
cheers

Xbox 360 all of a sudden has decided to randomly d...

I have a home hub 2 and as of mid last week my xbox 360 has decided to randomly disconnect in game sessions. It can also randomly disconnect when sat idle on dash board. I originally thought my xbox was at fault, but changed consoles and the problem persists.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.
(the console is wired to the hub)

Are there any other devices that have the same issues if wired, if not the case you might like to look here- http://community.bt.com/t5/BB-Speed-Connection-Issues/BT-Home-hub-Online-gaming-NAT-type-Strict-Solu... and here http://www.unofficialguidetolive.co.uk/
If it’s across all your wired and wireless devices on the Hub, you might have a broadband issue or the Hub might be breathing its last breath.

Keep getting disconnected from Xbox 360

Evening all
I signed up to BT Infinity around 2 months ago after having Virgin for 4-5 years. I eventually chose to leave Virgin after a month period where the Broadband was horrendously slow. I decided to go with BT Infinity as they seemed good for gaming. I play my Xbox 360 quite often and (other than the last month of my contract) never had any issues on Virgin.
The first 10 days with BT Infinity were brlliant, the Internet was quick and I didn't have any problems. Unfortunately, after 10 days I started to randomly get kicked from games, lose connection to my Xbox Live party, etc. After a lot of trouble shooting:
- Port forwarding
- Giving my Xbox a static address
- Changing my Wireless channel
- Disabling UPnP
- Wired connection to my Xbox
was still no closer to finding the resolution. Usually after getting disconnected I'll do a connection test and will get a moderate NAT setting. I do these tests randomly and I'm constantly changing from Open to Moderate. I can only assume this is the reason for my problem. I should also mention that this doesn't only happen on one game but all games.
After having no luck, I decided to do a hard reset and see if that fixed the problem. After doing this, I was able to play with no problems for another 5-6 days before it all started again. I've now reset my router about 5 times and the same thing keeps reoccuring.
I can only assume the router (HH3 Type A) is the issue as I never had any problems with Virgin. I've just got off the phone with BT support where they did a few checks and eventually came to conclusion that my broadband/router are showing no errors so it must simply be my Xbox (even though I told them about the previous 4-5 years of no problems). I did ask BT to send me out another router to see if that was the issue but they simply refused.
I'm at a bit of a loss what to do next, I'm hoping someone on the forums has experienced a similar issue and has found a fix.
Thanks in advance for any help suggested!
Dave

Thanks guys.
I've filled out one of the forms above so hopefully someone from BT will get back to me.
With regards to the DSL light bradhughes, did the light only flash when you got disconnected? Everytime I look at the Modem/Router the lights all appear to be fine. I wouldn't be able to tell if it's happening when I'm disconnected though as they're in a different room to the Xbox.

Xbox 360 live lagged and disconnect often with Linksys WRT300N router

I live in a two story townhouse with the modem and wireless router (Linksys WRT300N) located in the upper floor and the Xbox 360 system with wireless adapter in the bottom floor. Our laptop works fine with good connection but the Xbox live gameplay lagged big time and disconnect often. What are we doing wrong?

Configure the X-BOX using static IP....subnet mask ....gateway & DNS numbers as in the range of router ....
Also use the wireless settings same as in router
Forward the ports 88 & 3074 .... .on router .....
See above settings make any difference

Importing xbox 360 video clips into imovie 6.0.3sk

Hi, I have an xbox 360 that I would like to import some video clips off of onto my computer using imovie. I have a Powermac G4 with a dual 1.4 ghz cpu, 2 GB of RAM, and lots of HD disk space. I am using an ADS Pyro A/V link for capturing video. I have used this many times in imovie to capture video directly from a TV, VCR, DVD player, etc. For some reason when I hook up the cable from the xbox 360 to the Pyro (using either component connection or composite/RCA connection) and hit play in imovie to preview what's being converted, it can't process it. Sometimes it will show a bunch of pixelated squares, sometimes it won't show anything. Every once in a while it can process the sound, otherwise it doesn't show anything. After a few times, it says the pyro has been disconnected, although it obviously hasn't been. I've also tried directly importing without previewing it during the import, but that doesn't work either. I'm not sure if I need to set something a certain way? But I know you can import from the 360 because there are obviously many video clips floating around the internet taken straight from the xbox.
Anybody know anything about this or have any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Nevermind...I figured it out. There is a little button on the video cable that toggles HDTV on or off. Apparently it has to be off. So if anyone else has this problem, hopefully they can learn from my mistake.

Time Capsule, hardwired to TWO xbox 360's, and NAT issues.

Hello All,
I currently have an older Linksys WRT54G (version 1.0 LOL) which has been working fine for years. I recently bought my son an XBOX 360 for Christmas and we went through the issues of NAT and Call of Duty, and basically I have become quite knowledgeable on this topic. I recently added a SECOND XBOX 360, as it became apparent that one would not do with three boys in the house (Plus COD is a blast on line).
So I created a second Live Account and got the two xbox's running online stably with NAT wide open on both. This required abandoning the Linksys Firmware and installing "Tomato" on the WRT54G. That works GREAT. No modifications were required for the rest of the network including...
Macbook by Wifi, Minimac Hardwired (ya ya wifi works but hardwire is better), Airport Express (used only to stream music to stereo in family room - from ANY PC/MAC running Itunes...Itunes is VERY NICE), HP printer with network adapter, 5 other PC's including a mix of VISTA, XP, XP Pro, and multiple IPHONES, A Palm Tungsten C, WII, DS and of course the two hard wired XBOXs. NO Problems. The Tomato configuration only required the modifications for the XBOXs specifically as the rest of the network settings were not change after the firmware update.
What am I interested in? I'd like to upgrade to a Time Capsule for several reasons. One Newer wifi, faster, two frequencies, backup space for growing Mac branch of our network, and as the internet sharing router. AND to be able to access the TC from the internet for file access anywhere! LOVE THAT FEATURE. This requires the TC to be the first device after the cable modem as far as I can tell at this point. (any input on this specific feature would be great).
So I want to configure the TC with the input from the Cable modem as the main distribution of the internet. Then from the other NETWORK ports connect to my 20 port router for the rest of the house, as well as to the other items currently connected at the site of the current LinkSys Router (Mac Mini, Sony TV).
Also I need to maintain the current XBOX set up with (as well as Wii) with full open NAT on both XBOXs.
My question: Anyone here currently using the TC for hardwired connectivity for an XBOX with XBOX live running with open NAT for TWO XBOXs?
The issues with NAT and TWO XBOXs is that you cannot simply use PORT FORWARDing or PORT Triggering to make sure that the traffic goes to the correct xbox. The XBOX uses specific communication ports and the ROUTER needs to keep the traffic flowing properly or you get disconnected or never get open NAT (must have for XBOX live and internet gaming). There are many write ups on using Port Forwarding for one XBOX and setting the second one in the DMZ, but this does not work all the time.
The "Tomato" firmware on the LINKSYS allows fooling the router into giving a 'pseudo static' ip address to the XBOX's by doing MAC address based reservation of an IP number and then letting the DHCP give the xbox an IP address. The MAC address based reservation makes sure that the XBOX always gets the same IP address which for some GD reason must be in order for the traffic to be routed to the correct device. (you can of course use the same MAC address reservation for any device on the network).
Second Question: For those using the TC AND a second WiFi Router to do WIRELESS connection to the XBOX - which device do you have configured as the main INTERNET sharing router? I have read hear what appears to state that the TC is the main router and the other WiFi the secondary. Thus the ROUTING is still being done by the TC and the other wifi device is being used simply as a WiFi Access point/switch. If this is the case would the firmware on the TC allow the proper routing for TWO XBOXs on the network?
Thank you,
Mike

The ports are 53, 80, 88, and 3074. Since you are trying to make two Xbox consoles use those ports and you are trying to connect to a server, what you need to do is to use Port Range Triggering. You can't use Port Range Forwarding since it will only set those ports into listening mode to the IP address you set it. So if you use Port Range Forwarding it will only be open/available to one console(the one using the IP address).
You need to use PORT RANGE TRIGGERING. Disable Port Range Forwarding and DMZ. You need to enable UPnP as well if your Linksys router have this option (other model doesn't have this option but it is said to be enabled in default settings according to their tech support).
To solve the lag problem set your MTU size to 1364. This settings will work even if you have one or multiple consoles running behind the router.

Can anyone tell me how to port forward and setup an XBOX 360 using my Time Capsule??

Xbox 360
When playing the game online, the minimum speed of your network should be 128kbps. The ideal network speed for playing the game online is 768kbps. If you are having a problems with lag check the following:
Network Troubleshooting:
Disable any firewall or security features on your router.
Set port forwarding on your router to the IP address of your Xbox 360. This game uses port 3074 (UDP/TCP). Additionally Xbox LIVE requires ports 80, 53 TCP and 88, 53 UDP.
Place your Xbox 360 into the DMZ of your router.
Disconnect your router and try the game. If it works regularly at this point something about your router may not be completely compatible with the specific needs of this game. Check with your router manufacturer and Microsoft's Xbox Live Connection Issues page for additional steps that may need to be done to resolve the issue you are having. You can also verify that you have an Xbox Live compatible router.
If you are having issues connecting while multiple Xbox 360 consoles are connected on the same network, try forwarding port 3074 (UDP/TCP) for one Xbox 360 and setting the other as DMZ. There is a chance that this may not resolve you issue, if it doesn’t then you may want to consider getting an additional public IP address by contacting your Internet Service Provider and assigning it to one of these two consoles.
NOTE: If setting port forwarding or DMZ helps your connection issue, you may want to assign your Xbox 360 a static IP address within your home network. This can help to ensure that the configurations you made do not need to be done again. You can visit PortForward's Static IP Guide for a detailed guide on how to do this.
NOTE: Many broadband internet modems are coming with routing capabilities built in. Please contact your internet service provider to determine if your internet modem has an integrated router. If it does, they should be able to assist you with the steps above for setting up your router.
Once you have verified that your network setup is not the cause of the issue, try the following:
Try connecting to a different server. Some servers may have other players connected to them that you do not have an optimal connection with. In most games this is accomplished by backing out to the main menu and then selecting multiplayer again. From there you can try connecting to another online game.
Run the Xbox Network Self Test to see how strong your NAT is currently set to. Once the test is completed you will be notified if there is an issue with your connection. If you select "More Info" you will be given information about your NAT type and some steps to resolve any issues with your connection.
Moderate and Strict NAT types may have issues connecting to online matches. You may get the error "Notice - The game session is no longer available." If you do then enabling UPnP, forwarding port 3074, or placing your Xbox in your router's DMZ may resolve this issue. Please consult your router documentation for instructions on how to do this.

Whoa....this just went way over my head.... I already have 6.1 installed for my Airport Utility.
Read again what I wrote.. 6.1 is the problem.. or part of it.
You need to install the earlier 5.6 version which I have given you explicit instructions to do.
I have done something now and can not connect the XBOX at all now....unless you can provide me step by step directions I may have to call Apple Support.
This will happen over and over.. just press reset and start again.. you need to learn how to do the setup and using 5.6 utility will help you.. as will using ethernet from the computer to the TC.. trying to fix things over wireless is like sitting on a tree branch you are sawing off. As soon as you update you will fall to the ground.
I am not that sure that Apple Support will have any idea.
Do a google search .. you will find most people struggle with this.. Microsoft made the xbox to use upnp with vista specs.. if you use a router without upnp, ie any apple router.. you will have issues.
Have a go at bypassing the problem.. I have no idea if this will work.. I do not use a TC as the main router because much of my network including xbox and ps3 is just a pain.. I use a modem router with upnp. And bridge the TC.. that is the setup I would recommend.
Try this.. once you have installed 5.6 utility.
Get the IP of the XBox and click enable default host.. and put the IP address in there.. this is called DMZ.. all unassigned packets are forwarded to this ip address.. it is like a port forwarding for all ports.
See if it helps.. If it does you will need to lock the xbox address so it doesn't change.. we can get to that.
Tell me what kind of broadband you have and what modem router first.. none of this will work if you have double NAT.

Playing 5thGen through USB Port / Xbox 360

My iPod is not recognized by anything other than a PC. I had an older iPod that I could plug into my Xbox 360 or a DVR cable box and I would get a "Do not disconnect" sign, and be able to play through these devices.
When i plug my new 5th gen ipod into either of these, there is no change to the screen. My xbox 360 does not recognize that I have a portable device plugged in. Again, this worked fine with my older ipod.
I have tried putting it into disc mode as well, but this doesn't change anything.
I also have downloaded the optional ipod support software for the xbox 360.
Is there something that I need to do to the ipod to get it to be recognized by a non-PC?
Thanks.

The problem seemed to be with the 360. Had to unplug/replug the power source to the 360. Apparently the problem was with the 360 USB ports.

XBox 360 and WRT54GS no one can fix this. Please help if you can?

I'm totally out of ideas here and would appreciate it if someone could help me? We have 2 XBox 360's both with the Microsoft XBox wireless adapters. My son has had his since they first came out whatever year that was. My youngest daughter got hers last October. Both XBox's connect to XBox LIVE without a problem via a Linksys WRT54GS wireless router. The problem we can't solve is - my oldest daughter and son-in-law live about a mile from us and they have an XBox 360. When we try to connect to their XBox (or anyone else that's local) to play against her and her husband, it won't connect and gives us a "Disconnected" prompt every time. They have no problem connecting to other XBox's locally but we, for some reason, can't. I can connect our XBox directly into our cable modem bypassing the Linksys and it connects to them, so it isn't the cable modem. I've changed settings on the router, internet, XBox with no luck. I've updated the firmware. I've read thru posts on the internet for weeks and now my brain is mush. Is this fixable or do I need to buy a new wireless router? Also, I don't know if this has anything to do with anything but we have 3 PC's and 3 DVR's also connected to the internet but are hard wired. My kids and grandkids have DSi's, a Playststion3, and a Wii and those all connect via wireless and work great. XBox has this WRT54GS listed as compatable. I'm stumped. I know there's some really sharp folks out there somewhere.......please help if you can? Thanks for any help you could offer!

Have you opened the ports on the router....?
If not then,you need to open ports 53-3074 on the router..Read this link. Also,under the security tab on the router,uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...

Xbox 360 and my Wireless N setup.

I am currently using WRT350N (the storage version of the 300N) and a WUSB300N for my for my laptop using wireless N. They all work pretty well together. I recently got an xbox360 and I am looking to get it connected to the internet and I have a few options for that. I'd like to get some questions answered before I actually choose an option.
1. One option is to get the default Xbox360 Wireless USB adapter is a bit expensive and is a G only adapter, I assume I would have to switch all my other devices to G to get this to work correct? It would be nice to keep using N and not have to flip settings when ever I switch from laptop to 360.
2. Another option is to get a WAP4400N wireless access point. This is about $150 but is more versatile. Could I hook this directly to my 360 and use it to connect to my WRT350N with out any issues?
3. Lastly an option is to forget all this and just deal with having to run a 50' cable when ever I want to connect to xbox live for $5.

Same here, I recently got a WRT300N router. I got the 802.11n wireless adapter for my PC and I have an xbox 360 with the standard xbox 360 wireless adapter by microsoft.
I setup my network. When I double click My Network Places I can see all the devices on my network. I can see my xbox, my router, and my computer. I have my firewall completely disabled. I have enabled full sharing of all my media to my xbox. My xbox is able to connect to the router and I am able to log into xbox live too. Everything appears to be working both my PC and Xbox connected to the router just fine. My computer can see my xbox.
I'm running Vista Ultimate and when I try to add my xbox as a media center extender, WMC cannot find my xbox. I enter the 8 digit code but when I try to connect Windows Media Center cannot for some reason see my xbox or find it. Likewize with the xbox. It cannot find a computer running the WMC server.
Now here's the wierd part. I hook up a hard wired connection from my PC to my router (not my xbox, my router, my xbox is still communicating wirelessly). All of the sudden a notice pops up in my icon tray saying that windows has detected a media center extender and asks me if I want to setup up with WMC. So now I repeate the same process and try to add the xbox again inside WMC. It works perfectly. I am able to run media center and stream TV, etc.
Now that it's all setup, I removed the wired connection and WMC can no longer see my xbox. I think it has something to do with the fact that xbox is wireless g and the router and PC are communicating with wireless n. However it doesn't make sense because the xbox communicates through the router anyway and the router is backwards compatible with g so can anyone help with this problem?
Thanks

HT1529 how could i connect a xbox 360 to imac monitor?

i would like to connect my xbox to my imac monitor to use it as a display.

In general you would unplug the monitor from the Mac Pro and then directly connect the monitor to the xBox 360 (with the correct adapter cable, depending on which version of the xBox 360 you have). However, if you don't have permission from the owner of the lab to be connecting and disconnecting cables you shouldn't be doing that. Buy a cheap 1080p TV and use your xBox 360 at home.

WRT120N to Xbox 360 Wireless Connection

hi,
My wrt120n was working flawlessly with my xbox 360 until two weeks ago. I can connect to xbox live with no problem but it will always disconnect within 10 to 15 minutes, my PC does not have this problem.
My SSID and WPA2 personal are setup properly. I have port range forwarded 53 - 3074, yet I still disconnect. My NAT does not come up as strict or moderate.When I watch my network on the 360 it drops the connection entirely for around 3 seconds and automaticly finds it again. My IPs are setup staticly. My firmware has been upgraded.
Any advise would be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It's Good to know that your issue has been resolved...Enjoy .
