I'm having troube connecting to my xbox. I'm using flash fxp. I know I have to change my ip address on my computer, but to what? What I need to know Is what ip adress and default gateway to put. I know when I go in to flash I put my xbox's ip and xbox xbox. Please help?
I need more info. Are you using 2 nic cards? Are you using a router? if your using two nic cards then you want your first nic to be internet and second to xbox of course this is what you've done so from there you have your xbox ip 196.168.0.1 then you want your default gateway to be 196.168.0.2 both located in your xbox system setup. Now on your computer your nic w/ the xbox connected you want the ip to be 196.168.0.2 and the subnet mask to be 255.255.255.0 all in all here's a breakdown Xbox- Setup network - Yes Use Static IP - Yes IP - 196.168.0.1 Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway - 192.168.0.2 DNS - Leave Alone DNS - Leave Alone PC- Nic w/ Internet connection - Locate IP Auto Nic 2 Xbox - IP 192.168.0.2 Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway - Blank Perferred DNS - Blank Secondary DNS - Blank
Hey jayquick, do you know what the settings should be using a router? I tried changing the ip on my pc to what the guide here specified, but I lost my connection to the internet in the process.
a router will automatically assign your xbox an ip address(that is what routers do)....you do not need to touch the ip settings for your pc.
Thanks, that cleared things up a bit. I have a couple more questions if u dont mind. My router setup page has my ip listed as 192.168.1.1 ipconfig has my ip listed as 192.168.1.100 How do I know what adress my router has assigned the xbox? And should I replace the default adress in the dashboard settings with it?
i cannot figure out how to change the IP to static...it doesnt let you make it static or not...i am using the default dashboard with an XBIT chip and executer2 bios can you help me...i am pretty sure the ip and stuff is right..
