    ok first off you gotta set up a connection to your xbox.. via network connections.. go to the network connections folder and then go to file new connection.. then a wizard should pop up.. then click the circle for set up advanced connection.. then directly connect to another computer via your xbox.. then set your computer as the guest.. then name the connection as xbox.. then a little selection fold down box will appear make sure u pick Dirrect Parrel (LPT1) as your connection type hit next and finish.. now! the kinda sorta confusing part... after you make it don't connect it just yet.. right click the icon that was made and go to properties.. then go to networking tab in the properties window that pops up.. where it says PPP:Window95/98/NT4/2000, Internet, make it into SLIP: Unix Connection. then click the Advanced tab and check the top box the bottom box.. don't check the middle box. where it says Home Networking connection, if you can type in Local Area Connection. if you have any other questions post here.

    missed a point :p now plug your ethernet cable into either the back of you computer.. or if u have a hub connection to ur internet and that goes to your computer.. connect the cord to that.. boot up your xbox find the number that should look like 192.168.0.24 (most unleashedX are that mine was untill i set it to static IP so i could change it to what ever) then on your computer go to you Internet Explorer and go to the search bar and type in ftp://xbox:xbox@192.168.0.24 (or whatever your ip happens to be) and then hit enter.. now it should show all your folders! don't delete any folder that you don't add unless you know exatly what they are...

    I assume your using a router, tell me if your not, and are using a crossover cable. So connect your xbox to your router and turn your box on, then in the dash go to system, then settings, then Network. For type select DHCP, should look somewhat like this [​IMG]Save the settings and reboot, go back into the network settings and write down the Current IP listed at the top. Go back to the UnleashX dash, go to your comp and start flashfxp, click the lightning bolt in the upper right and then quick connect, for server or url type the ip address you wrote down, leave port at 21 and for username type xbox and for password type xbox then click connect, and thats it. tell me if you still need help.

    Yes there are numerous ftp programs. Also I told it to set it to Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to remove one step to make the setup easier, not have to assign an IP Address, but have an IP Address assigned automatically.
