Xbox live Airport issues

My xbox live can't fine my airport express ip address, my lap tops do fine but not my xbox live got any ideas.

Try the following ...
On the AX:
o Use the AirPort Utility to check the following settings:
AirPort Menu
o Jot down the AirPort Network Name. (Note: The AirPort Network Name is the same as the SSID used by the Xbox.)
o Note your Wireless Security settings.
AirPort Menu - Wireless Options
o Note, whether or not, you have "Create a closed network" checked.
On the Xbox 360:
o System tab > Network Settings > Edit Settings
o IP Settings: Automatic
o DNS Settings: Automatic
o Wireless Mode > Select Wireless Network (Note: If you had "Create a closed network" enabled on the AX, then you will need to select "Specify Unlisted Network" otherwise you should see the AX's AirPort Network Name.
o Edit Wireless Security Settings (Note: You will have an opportunity to select your wireless security settings. They must match those set in the AX.) If you're not using wireless security, then select "No Security" from the list.
o Apply Settings
o Test Xbox Live and/or Test Media (This will run a series of tests to verify that your wireless is setup properly.)

  • Time Capsule / Xbox Live compatibility issues...

    I have my xbox connected to my Time Capsule through ethernet so wireless isn't an issue. I've tried port forwarding and DMZ host which both leave the xbox telling me my NAT is set to strict. So far though it seems I can still use xbox live with my friends and it isn't an issue. However my girlfriend just got into 1 vs 100 and has played a few times so far. We just booted the xbox up today and tried to log in and now it gives us a network connection error each time we try to play. I've tried every various setting I can think of in the Time Capsule and none of them seem to work. Will my gf never be able to play 1 vs 100 again?
    Does anybody else have an Xbox connected to a Time Capsule that is able to play 1 vs 100? Could you please try if you haven't and let me know how it goes for you.
    Thanks in advance,
    Kye

  • Xbox Live issues - can anyone help

    Hello - I am hoping someone can help me out with some Xbox Live connection issues that are driving me crazy.  (Please bear in mind that I am a novice with these issues).
    I am attempting to connect to XBox Live via the Xbox wireless adapter and the WRT54GS router.  I have the router hardwired via ethernet port to a desktop computer.  Here are the problems:
    1.  The connection is very weak and spotty, with frequent disconnects.  I would say that I get a successful connection to Xbox live about half the time.  The failure message seems to be different every time.  At best, I get only one red bar on the Xbox Network Settings.  Usually, I have to unplug and re-plug in the router to get online.
    2.  I tried to help the connection by buying a wireless range expander.  However, when the range expander is plugged in, either I am unable to connect or it connects but I am unable to download any updates or content or marketplace runs very slowly.  I assume there is some configuration problem with the expander, but I have no idea how to fix it.
    3.  Even when I am connected, if my wife turns on her laptop I get disconnected. 
    4.  When I call Xbox support, they tell me it is a problem with the router.  When I call Linksys they tell me it is a problem with Xbox Live. 
    Can anyone help?  I have read a couple of posts about setting static IP addresses and opening ports, but I don't know how to do this.  And would it even help? 
    Thank you!!!

    hi... logon to router's setup page, open I.E. and in the address bar type 192.168.1.1 it would ask for username and password, put "admin" (default password) as a password, try changing channel to 11, go to advanced wireless settings reduce beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304, change Transmission rate to 54Mbps, also try upgrading latest firmware on the router, go to www.linksys.com/download and download the latest firmware for the router, logon router's setup page again and click on "administration" >> firmware upgrade and try upgrading latest firmware...
    click on "application & gamings" tab...and try triggering 88, 3074 ports on the router for X-Box...reduce MTU to 1365 on the router.

  • Express extending Extreme's Network, Xbox Live not connecting.

    Hey Everyone!
    I have an Airport Express (n version) extending my Airport Extreme's (n version) wifi successfully. My Xbox is connected to my Express via ethernet. My Xbox was able to successfully download a system update, but fails when attempting to update an Xbox Live update. I checked Microsoft's website to make sure Xbox Live was running properly, which it is. My network test on the Xbox tells me that it can connect to the Network, it can connect to the internet, but CANNOT connect to Xbox Live. My ip address does start with 10.0.x.xx, I'm wondering if that is part of the issue? I have never had any issue downloading things on the internet via my laptop. My other idea is that I haven't updated my Xbox in about 6 months, so maybe there's just a large amount of updates and it's receiving a bug of some sort? Can someone help me out here?
    -Nate

    First, have you had an opportunity to try some of the connectivity troubleshooting options provided by Microsoft for Xbox LIVE? For example, either Xbox LIVE Connection Problems or Xbox LIVE Connection Solution (aka Connection Wizard)? If so, what was the exact error(s) that either were reporting?
    Typically, when your console is able to access the Internet, but not to Xbox LIVE, the issue can be one of at least three things: 1) ICMP, 2) NAT, or 3) MTU errors. Were any of these reported when you ran the connectivity tests?

  • Airport extreme not compatible with xbox live?

    Hello,
    Ive had this problem for a long while now and are getting desperate. Basically when i go on xbox live the connection is really really bad. It's not all the time, rarely it will work fine but most of the time the connection is awful.
    I know the problem isn't because of the location of the xbox since, the connection is strong in my laptop in that room and we have also used a wifi signal analyzer in the room aswell. It's not because of where i live since i have a friend across the road who's xbox connection works fine. We also have an xbox dowstairs much closer to the router which also has the same problem. Im almost convinced its because of the aiport extreme.
    We have an aiport extreme which acts as the router and a netgear which is the modem. The airport extreme has to be in bridge mode or else i get a double nat problem. I think its something to do with the airport extreme and netgear conflicting, if they where i have no idea how to solve it or even if thats the case.
    We tried taking the airport extreme out of bridge mode and then turning nat off on the netgear but then we couldn't connect to the internet at all.
    Please help me, i really need this problem solved. Its really starting to annoy me.
    Thankyou

    Im almost convinced its because of the aiport extreme.
    Unfortunately, the key issue here may be that the AirPort Extreme is not on the Xbox list of "compatible" routers.
    Xbox LIVE Compatible Hardware - Xbox.com
    I know of no way to change that fact.
    We have an aiport extreme which acts as the router and a netgear which is the modem.
    You do not have a Netgear modem, you have a Netgear modem/router or gateway.  That is why the AirPort must be in Bridge Mode. In Bridge Mode, the AirPort is not acting as a router, it simply passes through the network information from the Netgear gateway.
    If you want the AirPort to act as the main router for the network, then the Netgear device must act as a pure, Bridge Mode modem.  Netgear support may be able to tell you if it is possible to configure the device that way.
    But, even if it is possible to configure the Netgear this way and the AirPort as the main router, the fact still remains that the AirPort is not listed as being "compatible" with Xbox, so there are no guarantees that this will help.

  • Time Capsule, Airport Express and Xbox Live

    Recently I went out and bought a Time Capsule 1TB hoping to extend my wireless network. I knew that Apple products wouldn't usually help extend a DLINK network so it came as no surprise when I could not extend my DLINK network. My solution was to buy a new Airport Express, disable the wifi on the DLINK router and extend the Airport Expresses network via the Time Capsule.
    The current situation is: DLINK <-> Ethernet <-> Airport Express Wireless Time Capsule <-> Ethernet <-> Xbox360
    The issue is the Time Capsule as far as I can see. For apparently no reason it will change from a solid green status light to a flashing amber status light. Signing my Xbox into Xbox Live seems to be a trigger, but the Time Capsule goes amber even when the Xbox isnt on at all. When it does change to flashing amber I am no longer able to detect it within Airport Utility and as such am unable to diagnose the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

    Here it works fine. I have a Time Capsule connected to my ADSL modem. I had to buy an all new Airport Express 802.11n, though, because my old AE could not extend my network.
    On an all 802.11n setup you just check the "Allow this network to be extended" on the master (Time Capsule), and choose "Extend a wireless network" on the remotes.
    The X-Box is connected with an Ethernet cable to the Airport Express, and connection to X-Box Live works fine.
    Good luck!

  • Airport express, Bt Homehub, Xbox Live

    Ok, a quick brief, i have the following hardware
    -Bt Homehub
    -Airport Express
    -D-Link router (not in use, not a wireless either)
    -Xbox 360
    -iBook g4
    -Belkin 54g Wireless Network Adapter
    ok excuse my ignorance as i am not the biggest techie in the world.
    i am looking to connect my xbox360 to the internet for xbox live, not a problem if i can keep it next to my Homehub (i can connect via ethernet)
    The problem i have is, my xbox is to be moved into my bedroom, it is not feasable to trail ethernet cable through the house.
    I have a wireless network running through the BT Homehub, currently the Airport Express is laying dormant.
    I will have my iBook next to my xbox360 on my desk.
    Does anyone have any idea's if at all possible that i can connect my xbox360 using my current hardware to my wireless network.
    I have tried various things but have not succeded.
    I look forward to any criticism's, suggestions etc.

    Your issue was double NAT.. and the lack of upnp in the airport time capsule products to open ports to those devices. With the TC in bridge you now have a single router the BT home hub in your case, which is fully upnp aware. This is so important when trying to run multiple game consoles as you cannot manually port forward in that situation.
    Let me add, with some of the latest games like black ops or mw3 you may still have issues. It depends which home hub you have as there are several with latest ones now sourced from manufacturers other than Thomson. All the Thomson based devices have issues with full CONE nat and forwarding of udp packets. There are special cone bind commands.
    See this post for details.
    http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1739702
    Port forwarding is a plague on the internet and the sooner we move to ipv6 the better although I have no doubt the process will be extremely painful. NAT is a kludge that results in all sorts of errors and issues.

  • I have a airport apple router for my xbox live but and on my xbox live my NAT type is 'strict' how do i change it to 'open'

    help

    Unfortunately, the AirPorts are not listed as Xbox Live-compatible routers ... so there is no guarantee doing this will get Open NAT status for Xbox Live!
    The following web blog does a great job explaining the NAT issues with Xbox Live! Basically what it comes down to is that although you can get an Internet connection for the Xbox with the AirPorts, you may not get the necessary NAT setting (Moderate or Open) for the Xbox Live! on-line game that you want to play. As such, you basically have two options: 1) Create a DMZ (Apple calls this a Default Host) for the XBox or 2) Configure the AirPort for Port mapping to open the required ports to allow Xbox Live! access ... or 3) Use a compatible router.
    Option 1 - Create a DMZ
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > NAT
    Enable default host at: <Enter the IP Address for the XBox>
    Option 2 - Configure Port Mapping
    The following ports must be available for Xbox Live to operate correctly:
    UDP 88
    UDP 3074
    TCP 3074
    To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
    1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the Xbox 360.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > DHCP tab
    Click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
    Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
    Reserve address by: MAC Address
    Click Continue.
    MAC Address: <Enter the MAC hardware address of the Xbox or the MAC address of the wireless depending on how you connect the XBox to the network.>
    IPv4 Address: <enter the desired Private IP address>
    Click Done.
    2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > NAT > Configure Port Mappings
    Click the "+" (Add) button
    Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
    Public UDP Port(s): 88, 3074
    Public TCP Port(s): 3074
    Private IP Address: <enter the DHCP Reserved IP address for the Xbox you created earlier>
    Private UDP Port(s): 88, 3074
    Private TCP Port(s): 3074
    Click "Continue"

  • My New Airport Extreme keeps disconnecting from Xbox Live, Why??

    I have just lately updated my wireless router to the New Airport Extreme and it has worked great for all be one of my systems. For some reason my Xbox360(1st gen) keeps disconnecting me from Xbox Live everytime i log-in.
    I'm not sure what the problem is, but what I do know is that I didn't have this problem with my old Netgear router. And No I can't change back to my old router im just hoping that these an easy fix for this problem??
    Thank you!!

    Hey,
    I'm using an Airport Express with my xbox and having the same problem. using the xbox 360 slim, 4GB with wifi. All my other devices are totally fine.
    How did you solve the issue ?

  • Using a Mac laptop and Airport to get on to Xbox Live

    There are numerous threads floating about on this though most didn’t seem to work for me however I have managed to get this working and thought it may be useful to share my technique.
    FYI I am using an early 2008 MBP 2.4 running OS X 10.5.2
    1. Connect your laptop using an Ethernet cable to your Xbox 360.
    2. Open System Preferences -> Sharing and enable Internet Sharing; ensure that you select Share Your Connection from Airport using Ethernet.
    3. Now select System Preferences -> Network -> Airport and click on Advanced. Select DNS and copy down the two DNS Server numbers there. (Other guides suggest that when you enter the DNS number on your Xbox that you use your IP Address however this didn’t work for me.)
    4. Open Terminal and type in “ifconfig en0” Copy down your inet number.
    5. Switch on your Xbox and navigate to the Network settings menu -> Edit Settings.
    6. Manually enter the following data into the fields:
    a. Under the IP address enter your inet number but increase the final digit by one. I.E. if your inet number was 192.168.2.1 change this to 192.168.2.2
    b. Under Subnet Mask enter 255.255.255.0
    c. Under Router/Gateway enter the inet number as it was initially. I.E. 192.168.2.1
    d. Once you’ve entered these numbers select done, a window will pop up and ask if you want to test these settings. Select Test Xbox Live. A second window will require your permission to sign out, select Yes and run the test.
    e. Move onto the DNS settings and manually enter the Primary and Secondary DNS Server numbers which you got earlier.
    f. Follow the instructions as in step d.
    g. You should now be able to connect to Xbox live.
    I hope you can follow my instructions and if used, I hope it works for you too.

    Move or copy the iTunes library from the old computer to the new computer.
    iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.

  • Setting up xbox live with an airport extreme

  • XBOX ONE. I have the xbox one and the airport time capsule and cant connect to most xbox live games and zero parties. I have 0 experience in all this but somehow was able to change NAT to open but still wont connect. HELLLPPPP

    Okay folks, I need your help out there.
    So the nerdy side of me went and picked up the XBOX ONE on release day. Its awesome by the way, BUT..... I cant seem to connect to most xbox live games and absolutely ZERO parties. At first I just thought it was something to do with the xbox itself and would eventually fix itself, but i was wrong. After looking into it on microsoft, i found out that it had to do with my NAT settings on the airport itself. I guess apple and xbox are not compatiable for xbox live and it makes it difficult to have an open NAT setting and is a huge PAIN.
    I was able to pinpoint one that the airport time capsule was blocking the IPV6 something or another. Anyways, I unblocked that, and reset the modem and time capsule and jumped on the xbox and now have open NAT settings but still cant connect to multi-player.
    Upon further searching, i was told to uncheck the UPNP on my time capsule as well, but have no idea how to find that.
    I know it seems confusing, but thats the best i can describe it.
    tthanks all

    Be a long long time before I see an Xbox One.. but whoever told you to uncheck the upnp in the TC.. tell them their dreamin' .. upnp is not support by Apple in any computer or router, never has been.. Apple deliberately wrote their own version called NAT-PMP to do the same thing.. dynamically open ports at the request of an application or client computer.
    So there is nothing like that to uncheck.. and as a matter of interest.. there no box to check or uncheck for NAT-PMP either.. since apple do not believe in end user adjustment of settings.. they simply do not exist.
    You will have to manually forward all ports required by the Xbox via the TC. For multi-player games you probably need to open more ports than the standard to allow just xbox live. You will need to check the ports required and open them.
    OR
    Buy a standard vista UPNP compatible router.. and use that.. and simply put the TC in bridge in the network.
    I have not seen posts yet about xbox one.. but there are plenty about xbox and ps3 and the fact that Apple really doesn't give a hoot about games consoles.
    This is a good basic post for older xbox.

  • Connection issue Xbox Live

    For the past two weeks I have had issues staying connected to xbox live gameplay.  I never get kicked off live just out of the game.  I will be playing a game and midway through I will get disconnected. 
    Here is my set up. 
    Wired Connection (purchased new cable today and still having problems)
    M1424-WR Aciontec Wireless router
    I shut my router down for 8 hours to see if that would help but it didn't.  I am not having issues with my computer internet connection. 
    Any suggestions for things I could try? 

    if you are desperate to play connect it the ethernet cable straight into the ont . The ont is the box that has a logo of verizon and is big. Assuming you are not MOCA enabled. Then you need your router. MOCA enabled means you have a coax WAN cable connected to your router instead of a WAN ethernet cable.

  • AirPort extreme , PS3 Xbox live

    Ive recently got a macbook and love the look of the airport extreme however I'm not really going to be using the wireless capability much. I want to use the wired ports. it has 3 ethernets out if i send 1 to PS3 1 to Xbox and the other to a switch for my macbook and pc , and maybe more products in the future will this set up be okay?
    ive heard lots of problems with airport and xbox live / ps3 but these seem mainly due to the wireless components not if i used a wired connection.
    if im not going to be using it for the wireless capabilities that much nor the usb HDD because i intend to use a Network storage device for faster speeds is it worth getting or should i stick with a cheaper router.
    basically i like the look of the software config tool for it but wondered how easy it is to port forward etc for games consoles compared to other products.

    Hello frostybarney. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I want to use the wired ports. it has 3 ethernets out if i send 1 to PS3 1 to Xbox and the other to a switch for my macbook and pc , and maybe more products in the future will this set up be okay?
    Yes.

    It really wouldn't make much sense to get the AirPort, or any other wireless router, if you really don't intend to use this capability. I suggest a wired router, like the Linksys BEFSR81 for what you are looking for.
