XBOX 360 & TV Media Streaming Via HH3

Hello All,
I know this has been asked a few times, but I cannot find a definitive answer.
Recently moved over to BT and I am having a nightmare getting both my TV & XBOX to see my media on the PC.
Before with SKY everything was working perfect, but the HH seems to block everything. Normal Internet access on XBL is fine, but media is a no go..
Is there is specific guide to enable this again, as I am lost without it, and am really disappointed its blocked it all like it has.
Any help appreciated.
Thank you
Lee

If you mean with the xbox for example restore the network to factory settings, then yes did that.
Did a network test of the TV and all show fine too.
Like i said before xbox live works fine, and everything that goes with it. Its simply a problem with streaming media that causes the hiccup.
Pinging the xbox came back with "timed out" the TV is set to auto and doesn't show the IP so cant ping it.
This points to an internal networking problem, you should be able to ping any internal ip address and get a response.
The homehub recognises the xbox also, and what i think is the TV ans what i think is the TV but it tagged "unknown"
That makes sense, the Hub would see the Tv as unknown because it doesn't have or use a DNS name.
To test this out further is there any way you can bypass the Homeplug/s....and I take it UPnP is enabled in the Hub....
or power cycle the hub by removing the power lead for 30 seconds b4 plugging back in.....or do a factory reset on the Hub..

AirPort Express as a Wireless Adapter For Xbox 360 and to stream PC audio?

Ok, so I am wondering if I can do this config with an AirPort express. I want to connect the AirPort to my existing WiFi, and be able to plug in an Ethernet cable connected to an Xbox 360 to get Xbox Live, as well as stream audio from my PC. Is this possible to do at once? Also, is it possible to stream PC audio, not just iTunes music? Thanks for your time.

Hello podalex,
Just an FYI for you with regard to the Airport Express:
It is always best to check with the software manufacturer FIRST. They will tell you if they have tested the product and the version, as well as whether or not it will work with Windows 7.
Check out the Windows 7 Compatibility site: (There you will find out about hardware and software compatibility.)
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/en-us/default.aspx
There is a pulldown from which you can choose "hardware" and "software".
There are also some great articles, instructional videos and such to help with your Windows 7 at our Springboard site:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/default.aspx
In any event a lot of the times, Vista drivers will work in lieu of Windows 7 drivers, however, it's not 100%!
As stated previously, it's best to have the Windows 7 certified drivers installed.
Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 Support Forum located here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w7itpro/ . It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. You may want to check the threads available there for additional assitance and support.

55VL900a - media streaming via WLan breaks after 10-15 min

I was hoping someone might help me.
I like to stream video from my MacBook Pro to the my TV.
They are both connected to my wireless network and it all works fine for abour 10~15 mins and then the TV stops streaming.
I thought it was my Mac, then I thought it was my network, but, on the same network and setup I can stream to my ipad no issues. It seems the problem is coming from the TV..
I don't know what else to try.
I was hoping someone out there had a solution or an idea of something I can try.
I have tried using a wired connection to the TV.
Same result. I am at my wits end..

Hi
I would recommend you to check the [55VL900A user manual|http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/file/product/manual/5187/55VL900A.pdf] how to configure and use the TV within the home network and how to use the internal Media Player in connection with DLNA certified server

XBOX 360 media sharing across wired/wireless

I have a WRT54G, 2 Windows machines, and an XBOX 360. Everything works as expected except that I cannot connect the PC's to the XBOX except via wireless. If a PC is wired to the router, Windows Media Player doesn't see the XBOX. If I ping the XBOX while connected via a cable, I do have connectivity but the first ping takes ~40ms and then drops to ~1ms, which seems to indicate an ARP was required.
I updated the firmware on the router to the latest (v4.21.1 ) but the problem persists.
It seems that the devices can only communicate over whatever ports/protocols required if they are both on wireless (or possibly both wired works as well; haven't tried). I don't see any setting in the router that seems relevant, but I'm hoping I've just missed something. It would be very nice to be able to be able to use my desktop via a wired connection, and have access to it's music on the XBOX. Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!

Trouble getting Xbox 360 talking to Media Center PC

Trying to connect Xbox 360 with Media Center PC using Wireless-N products from Linksys.
Router is WRT300N.
So now I have tried the following setups.
1. 360 wired directly to router and PC connecting wireless with Wireless-N USB adapter - Doesnt work
2. 360 connected with wireless-g bridge to router connected to PC directly - works but performance not great
3. 360 connected with wireless-g bridge to router and PC connected to router via wireless-g bridge - works but performance not great (but better since router is sitting in the hallway halfway between each room.
4. 360 directly connected to router and PC directly connected to router - works great, but of course cable just laying on the floor (not acceptable).
So the problem is the Wireless-N USB adapter. Anyone have any clue what the cause could be. What kind of configuration would stop this from working.
What I want is the 360 plugged directly into router and PC connecting via Wireless-N to the router. Cant do the opposite because no Wireless-N bridges.

Nope the only Wireless USB adapter that works with the 360 is the one MS makes and it is A/B/G. No one makes a Wireless-N bridge. So need 360 to plug ethernet cable right into the back of the WRT300N and PC connect to WRT300N with a Wireless-N card.
Both the 360 and the PC can see the WRT300N when they are connected the way I want. The problem is the 360 cant see the Media Center PC when setup that way.
I just dont get it. I swap out the Wireless-N USB adapter for a Wireless-G bridge and things work.

Time Capsule & Xbox 360 via ethernet

Hi
I have a Time Capsule connected to my modem wireless, I can access the internet over WiFi on my mac without issues.
When I connect my Xbox 360 to the router via ethernet it will not allow me to connect to Xbox live.
According to some forums people are able to connect their TC with XBOX 360. I can connect to xbox live if I directly plug it into my modem, so it is not anything to do with XBOX itself.
Does anybody has experience with that stuff?
Thank you in advance for any help!
Flo

Are you sure?
I am able to connect my XBOX with my wireless router. That works very good.
But I am not able to realise a connection between my XBOX 360 and my TC. So probably I have to change some configurations on my TC, right? Maybe it is a problem with my IP or DHCP configurations? I have the same problems with my Media Player ASUS O!Play HDP-R1. With wireless router I can connect the media player via ethernet to the internet but it does not work with Time Capsule.
I am really frustrated. I don't get it.

ITunes and Windows Media Center on XBOX 360

I can't get my iTunes to play through my xbox 360's Media Center. It will play all my pictures and videos but says "a problem has occured" when I try to open iTunes. Please help

Thanks

E4200 -- no sharing, no xbox 360 media extender

Problem: Shares don't work on my network from win7 box (trying to access these from a wd hd tv live plus), can't use xbox 360 as a windows media extender from win7 box, Media sharing from Windows Media Player from win7 box doesn't work (trying to access these from a wd hd tv live plus and xbox 360).
Note...if I attach a hard drive to the router, I can share from the hard drive attached to the router and use it as uPnP device.
This linksys replaced a netgear router. That is the only thing that has changed in the network configuration. All of the sharing and xbox 360 windows media extender worked when I had the netgear.
I have tried removing the xbox360 as an extender and readding it. I have tried changing the multicast setting.
I tried calling linksys support and they didn't know how to help.
Gaming works fine through the xbox 360. Internet access is great on the win 7 box, hd tv live plus, xbox 360, and wii--MUCH better than the netgear, which is why I want to make this work

Disable Network sharing on all the computers/devices. Restart all the computers/devices. Enable network sharing again on all the computer and devices. Make sure that all the computers and devices are in the same work group. if there is any firewall/Anti-virus installed on your computer then disable it or turn it off and see if that works.

Time Capsule & Xbox 360 over ethernet issues

I have a Time Capsule connected to my modem, I can access the internet over WiFi on my mac without issues, however when I connect my Xbox 360 to the router via ethernet it will not allow me to connect to Xbox live. What's highly frustrating is that it passes all test apart from the ICMP one. According to some forums, if your receive this then your router is not compatible with xbox live. However this contradicts people being able to connect through their TC on other posts. I can connect to xbox live if I directly plug it into my modem, so it is not anything todo with that side of things.
Is there any reason why this might be on my TC and how might I go about sorting this problem out?
Any help much appreciated
Matt

Although I also haven't been able to get it working over Wi-Fi yet, I've got it working pretty happily over what is ostensibly ethernet (powerline networking ftw).
My guess is that the problem you're having is due to your Time Capsule ignoring stuff (as a security measure) that Xbox Live is sending the Xbox, so what I think you need to do is tell your Time Capsule to stop doing that for the Xbox. You do that by getting your Time Capsule to give the Xbox the same IP address every time it connects, and to not block anything sent to that IP address.
First we need to get the Xbox's MAC address, which you can find either on the back of the Xbox itself, or by going to the System blade on the Xbox Dashboard, selecting Network Settings, Edit Settings, Additional Settings (push the left thumbstick to the right), Advanced Settings, then the MAC address should be displayed.
Just to be clear, a MAC address has nothing to do with Apple's computers, standing for Media Access Control, and is a quasi-unique code that nearly every network adapter has. We're using it here so your Time Capsule can recognise the Xbox.
Now you've got the MAC address, open AirPort Utility, select your Time Capsule and click Manual Settings, the Internet toolbar icon, then the DHCP tab. Click the plus button under the DHCP Reservations box, type Xbox 360 (or whatever you want) as the description, and click Continue. Now type the Xbox's MAC address into the MAC Address box, then click the IPv4 box, change the last number from 2 to 35 (so it's something like 10.0.1.35), and click Done.
Now we have the Xbox getting the same IP from the Time Capsule, we need to tell the Time Capsule to stop filtering stuff that's sent to that IP, to do that, click the NAT tab (inside the Internet section), then "Enable default host at:" and enter 35 as the last two digits (so it matches up with the IP address we put in the IPv4 box earlier). Finally, click Update, and when your Time Capsule has finished restarting, try the connection test on the Xbox again.

Starz Play and Xbox 360

I am not new to this and I DO know what I'm doing. I have the network set up the way it always has been. Its ethernet, and its going through the switch and Fios router. I recently downloaded Starz Play and it works great on my Desktop, Laptop, but NOT on my 360. I have been streaming Vista MCE to it for months, and it all works GREAT with no network interference of any sort. The application doesnt show my 360 as an available device for it to extend to, so I am stumped. I searched the interwebs already, so any advice is more than appreciated. Thanks!

Imac & xbox 360

I have been reading about connecting an xbox 360 to the imac via the elgato Eyetv. However it seems as though the eyetv would cause the 360 to lag because of USB. Would the EyeTV 410 still lag even though its connected via firewire? And would there be any way at all to reduce the lag?

You are the 10 milliionth person to ask this question, and I'm in the exact same boat, but with a PS2.
UNFORTUNATELY, Apple has neglected to put any type of input on the 24" iMac's beautiful display, so my suggestion would be to WRITE apple. If enough people write them with this request, they WILL include it. Please write them. PLEASE. Here is a link, to make it easier:

Please, make anybody else you know do the same. If enough people do it, the next iMac WILL have an input!!!!!

Problem streaming from Windows Media Center to XBOX 360 with Airports?

Good evening,
I have been having an issue trying to stream windows media center from my windows 7 ultimate (64 bit if that helps) to my Xbox 360. My network setup is:
I have an airport extreme (G) that is plugged into my cable modem and my windows 7 machine. In my living room I have an airport express that extends my wireless signal through out the house but my xbox 360 is plugged into it via ethernet. I have a very fast internet connection that is stable but any transfer between my computer and xbox is very limited it seems. I was wonder if there is a way to get this to work better. When I lunch windows media center on the xbox it sees my pc and it shows the available files but when I try and move from one to the other nothing happens and eventually I get a can't connect error. Would I be better off not connecting via ethernet to the airport express and just buying a wireless adapter?
Thanks

You don't say how your devices are connected, whether through your Verizon router or some other way. If through, say, an Actiontec then you may be having bottleneck issues. I used to run all my devices through my Actiontec and got poor transfer speeds (it only handles 10/100). Moving everything on my network to a 10/100/1000 switch helped my transfer speeds to shoot right up ten fold. This way only the switch gets connected to my Actiontec and my network devices can still get out on the 'net if needed.
It's ok to try to reinvent the wheel, but just make sure it's round.

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.

Xbox 360 and nas storage for streaming media

Hi there,
I have an xbox 360 and watch movies on it through my network that are stored on my home PC, this means that I have to have my home PC on whenever I want to watch a movie. What I would like to do is have a NAS storage device that I can store all my movies on that is on the same notwork so that I can then watch the movies on my xbox without the need for the PC being on. Obviously I would want the NAS to be seen by the computer's I have on my network also.
I way thinking about getting this item Western Digital - My Book Live 1TB External Home Network Drive - Black but am not sure if the xbox will see it? or is there a better solution for around the same price which is expandable?
Thanks.

You'd have to get a real home or business NAS product to stream to the 360 and those are not in the same price range as the product you are looking at.
