Linksys WRT54G compatible with XBOX 360's Wireless Network Adapter?

Is the Linksys Wireless G Broadband Router (WRT54G) compatible with XBOX 360's Wireless Network Adapter?

Use the LAN port and cable. That way you'll get no interference and great data transfer. Or this maybe helps. http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/connecttolive/xbox360/homenetworking/equipment.htm

WRT54G 2.2- Xbox 360's NAT setting is Moderate, please help!

Ok, here's the story...normally i always have the 360's network settings to 'automatic' , but since the new Live update i've been having lots of trouble, like : I try to start a private chat with someone, but the person isn't able to join me or when i try to join their chat/party it doesn't work.
However, just now when that person was already in a party with someone, i WAS able to join...but as soon as i get an invite from that person when he's got no one else in the party...it doesn't work.
So i started to check the net for advice...and i found another forum where they said i had to do a few things.
http://www.portforward.com/networking/staticip.htm
I made a static IP for Vista and Xbox 360. And finally this
http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Linksys/WRT54G/Xbox_Live_360.htm
Then i test the Live connection, and everything is fine it seems, but at the end i receive an error about how my NAT is Moderate. It then gives suggestions such as, to check if you have enabled UpnP on the router...which i have. It advices you to turn off the router and/or modem for a few minutes...nothing of that makes a change here sadly.
That forum also told me to open these ports.
Port: 1900
Naam: UPnP Framework
Protocol: UDP
Scope: My network (subnet) only
Port: 2290
Naam: Remote Media Center Experience
Protocol: TCP
Scope: Any computer (including those on the Internet)

Naam: Media Streaming (Media Connect)
Protocol: TCP
Scope: My network (subnet) only

Naam: Network Validation
Protocol: UDP
Scope: My network (subnet) only
and put them here
http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Linksys/WRT54G/WRT54G4.jpg
Everything all fine and dandy...the problem though is..what do i fill in as the last few numbers of their IP adresses? Here it looks like this now

WRT54G Issues with Xbox 360

Okay, I got this Wireless router so that my family could get more then one computer eventually. Now we only have one computer still but we have added an Xbox 360 to our network recently. However, the version 6 that we bought is not on xbox 360 compatible router list and encounters some problems. Namely that it causes some of my friends games to be unjoinable and doesn't allow chatting with them. I need to figure out how to get this router to be able to work at full efficiency with my 360 or else I will constantly be hooking and unhooking the DSL cable and directly connecting to my modem. I'm curious if running it as a router instead of a gateway may help with this. I'm also curious if anyone has already fixed this problem. Any more data needed by you I will gladly provide. Oh, also, the ISP is Windstream.

WRT54G - Advice for XBOX 360 users

My Advice - Upgrade the router's firmware using a wired connection before you do anything else.
I just got this router as a replacement for a broken-down d-link router. I had issues with the 360 the first night I installed it. Everything else worked (PCs, Wii).
Symptoms:
Router wouldn't assign my 360 an IP address through DHCP
The XBOX live connection was all quirky
NAT level showed as moderate in the 'Test Connection to XBOX Live'
360 couldn't see the mediaCenter PC correctly
I am using a wired connection from the router to the 360.
Because DHCP wasn't working, I set the IP and DNS manually. That seemed to have half-worked. It would show me as signed on to live though the games would fail to perform on Live.
Solution:
I decided, before following any of the other advice out there - which in some cases can really comprimise your network's security - I decided to upgrade the router's firmware.
Once I did this then set the XBOX 360 IP and DNS back to Automatic, the 'Test Connections' on the 360 were successful and I was playing blazing angels and nba 2k7 online with no lag, etc...
I did not have to make any other adjustments after the firmware upgrade. NAT Level also changed to OPEN when running the 'Test Connection to XBOX Live' from the 360. No DMZ, no port triggering, and no port forwarding necessary.
Background:
Just to give you an idea of how many devices I'm running through this router at my home:
3 wired desktop PCs
1 wireless desktop PCs
2 wireless laptop PCs
1 wireless Nintendo Wii
1 wired Xbox 360
All devices are working just fine.
I've been working with routers for around 12 years (large and small implementations).
I got this router for around $50 and really like the features for the price (especially the WPA2 and wireless MAC address filtering).

Ok I have a new problem,(I have a topic on xbox 360 and nat settings)I got my NAT to open, was able to play with my friends that I couldn't before.Then last saturday, he brought over his xbox 360 and we played all night. Then the next day,with his 360 back at his place, we try to join and its the same problem all over again,can't join his party.His settings was set to OPEN before,when he put it back at his place,now he had a MODERATE setting,without changing anything on his router config.(should still be OPEN). Anyone have any walk arounds for this problem,or any help? I only understand so much of this networking stuff.

Need help opening NAT type to OPEN on a model WRT54GS router for xbox 360

I have tried from other people's advice and when i test Xbox Live i always get a Moderate NAT type. I am becoming frustrated with how it is not working and I am hoping someone can help me. Please leave advice/suggestions and thank you for your time.

Open the setup page of the router using 192.168.1.1 by putting the password as admin with username as blank & click the Administration tab & on the same page you will see UPNP.You need to select it as disable in order to help opening NAT type to OPEN.

Problems with connecting xbox 360

i cant connect my linksys wireless router (model wrt54gs) to my xbox 360, can anyone help.

Are you trying to connect wirelessly or wired?
Try being more specific to the problem like is your ip or dns failing maybe
(You do know that you have to buy a game adapter for the 360 if you are trying to play wirelessly cause its not built in.)

Step by step complete setup for WRT54G ver.6 with Laptop and XBOX 360

Hello. I am sorry to post this, I am sure it is a juevenile and redundent question...but I have tried to look for the set up cd (I can find where to download it...though I can find the firmware upgrade or whatever). My friend at work said it would do all the setup pretty much automatically for me.
I somewhat know computers, but you might go ahead and make your replies VERY lamen's terms or I might not be able to follow. Anyways, what I need, is a step by step/screen by screen directions for a secure network. I have made a partial attempt at setting it up and it technically works, but I would feel better if I did the steps a-z in order, so I know that it is done correctly. I also am not totally confident in its security as it is now. (Also, technically, I did not check the XBOX again after getting the new laptop, I am just assuming it is still working because it was before).
My problem is I can't seem to find very good directions for setting up the router...I only find partials or confusing directions.
So here are the things I am trying to connect:
Liksys WRT54G ver. 6
Gateway Laptop running Windows Vista
XBOX 360 - WIRED
(I had a PC and a laptop, but they both died at the same time and I have only been able to replace the laptop at this point...the PC will come later and not sure at this point if it will be Wired or not).
I have a cable Modem between the Router and the wall...I didn't look at that for brand/etc...but I can get it ASAP if needed.
Here are the settings that I have so far:
Changed the Router Name
Changed the SSID
Have DHCP set to 3 (XBOX, PC, Laptop)
Wireless SSID Broadcast: Disable
Username and Password changed to my own info
UPnP: Enable
I may have changed other things without knowing it. So like I said, a complete, step by step screen by screen set up would be totally appreciated. I haven't done anything in the security tab, all that is totally foreign to me, so I am just not broadcasting for now until I can get some help setting things up with you guys.
And if someone is familiar with the Laptop/XBOX 360 setup, and I need to change any of the settings on the XBOX itself, could you please include that in your directions? I know that isn't technically what THIS forum is for, but it would sure be helpful to me if you happen to know both parts anyways.
Thanks a lot (in advance)!

So all you just need to do is, secure your Wireless Network. Follow the setps bellow and change the settings on your Router.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

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...

Does the Xbox 360 wireless adapter even work with the WRT54G wireless router?!!? If so, how???

I just bought a WRT54G wireless router (Ver 8.0; firmware updated to latest). I have successfully connected my wireless laptop using WEP security, but I'm at wits end trying to get the Xbox 360 wireless adapter to work. (It worked just fine with my Netgear router until that router recently died.)
When I do the "Test Media Connection" routine (you XBox 360 users know what I'm referring to), the Xbox immediately recognizes the Network Adapter and indicates that it is connected to the Wireless Network, but it inevitably fails the next step in the process: IP Address. I have the set-up for the IP address to be assigned automatically by the router (which is set for DHCP Server enabled).
I have gone around the mountain innumerable times myself and then with well-meaning friends who say try this, try that, try this, try that. I've had to re-establish my laptop set-up so many times I wanna scream!
Are the Xbox 360 wireless adapter and the WRT54G even compatible? If so, what am I missing here? I'm not too technical and obviously in over my head, but this ought not be that hard.
Please, please do NOT respond unless you KNOW the answer! I don't mean to be curt, but I'm over / past "suggestions to try."
Thank you VERY much for your time and consideration if you can help me.

I don't think that the X-BOX adapter is not compatible to wireless rotuer .... there are few settings you can try on the router ... Access router setup page ... 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. Hope it works ...

Using the WRT54G and a WUSB54GC with an Xbox 360.

Hi,
I have a WRT54G router and I just bought a WUSB54GC compact Wireless-G USB adapter because I thought I could connect it to my Xbox 360 to play games online. Is this possible? I've tried a few times, but I can't get it to work. I'm not too tech savvy but I'm guessing that it isn't supposed to work like that. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi
As far as my knowledge, if you want to use WUSB54GC you need to install its drivers, and that is not possible on X-box 360, in that case you can check if your X-box 360 is Wi-Fi enabled, if not you can use a special product i.e. WGA54G, Wireless-G Gamming Adapter, It's completely driver-free, so it works on any platform. Since there's no drivers to load, setup is a snap. It provides lag-free gaming with communication speeds up to 54Mbps when connected to other Wireless-G devices. It can also connect to Wireless-B (802.11b) devices and networks at 11Mbps.

WRT54GS NAT Settings Concerning Xbox 360 Setup

My xbox 360 is connected to a Dell Inspiron B130 notebook via an Ethernet cable. The notebook is then connected wirelessly to a Linksys WRT54GS router. The router, finally, is connected to a Sprint DSL modem. My problem is that with this setup, whenever I try to play online on my 360, it tells me that my "NAT settings" are set to "Strict", and that they should be set to "Open". Could someone please tell me how to fix this problem, providing step-by-step instructions? Thanks!

Do have the proper ports forwarded in your router?? Be my only guess......or check ebay for an xbox360 wireless adaptor.

Wrt54GS router and Wrt54GS wireless adapter on Xbox 360

Totally new in the wireless router business, I bought the Wrt54GS router and the Wrt54GS adapter to connect my Xbox 360.
I installed the router with the cd and connected my pc on the router with a fixed ethernet cable.
So far everything working fine.
Then connected the wireless adapter on the Xbox 360, but it seems like the Xbox 360 doesn't recognise the Wrt54GS adapter.
What did i do wrong?
Sebastian

Do you have wireless PC's ? are they able to go online ?
enable network security and also change the beacon to 50 and the RTS and fragmentation threshold by 40 each under the advanced wireless settings.

WRT54G, Windows 7 Home Premium & XBox 360: anyone able to stream media?

I had no problem previously on XP streaming media from my PC to an XBox 360. However, with Windows 7, i find that even though the network map on PC shows the XBox 360, the PC only occasionally shows up as accessible on my XBox 360 - and as soon as I try to browse to media, I lose the connection.
Has anyone else had luck with te above combination?
Thanks,
P.

Honestly, I've gone through every possible troubleshooting guide in the last 6 months. The symptoms are entirely random; sometimes I can connect to the PC, sometimes I can't, sometimes the XBox cannot see the PC at all.
I have a feeling that the WRT54g (7.2.0.1) is simply not compatiblw with XBox 360 and with Windows 7 Home Premium, and I've been unable to find anyone else who actually uses this combination.
If anyone else is using this combination, please let me know.
P.

WRT54GS TO MY XBOX 360
