Ok first of all I have been searching this forum for days now looking for an answer but haven't had any luck most of the topics that start out talking about this ends up going off topic and never gets answerd. Heres my stats: PC Network settings: I have 2 network conections one port is going to my router and then to my cable modem for internet acsess and the other port is hooked up to my xbox by a cross over cable. the setting on the port hooked up to the cross over: Ip Address: 192.168.0.1 subnet mask : 255.255.255.0 default gateway: blank XBOX network settings: setup network : yes static ip: yes ip: 192.168.0.2 subnetmask: 255.255.255.0 gatway: 192.168.0.1 dns:192.168.0.1 dns: 192.168.0.1 im using flashftp trying to conect to user name xbox password xbox ip 192.168.0.2 and i get the following error.

Also I meant to add I pretty much know what im doing this jsut recently started happing I've been making backups of games for weeks I have about 20+ backups and they all work perfectly but now I can't get connected to the xbox anymore.
restart the computer and xbox and try again, if it still fails then go to your xbox and change the password for ftp and then change it back it happened to me more than once and somehow my password got messed up
Ok the whole restart thing of course isn't going to work because thats not going to change anything i've been working on this for the past 3 days. I will try changing the password on the xbox, but as u can see here: [R] 230 User xbox logged in , proceed. It looks like the connection and login is going through, but I am geting no data conection back to my computer or to and from the computer and xbox.[R] 425 Can't open data connection to 192.168.0.1:4614
I just tested conecting to my xbox with my laptop and it worked perfectly I just made a back up of a game. I compaired the settings on my laptop with thouse on my main computer and they look just the same. It seems that the computer is conecting to the xbox its just not opening the data connection to view the folders and files within the xbox. Still has anyone founf a fix for this because my main computer is my burning computer and its a pain transfering data from the laptop to the main computer for burning.
is the computer set up with a static IP? My whole system is set up DHCP which is much easier as it will assign the Xbox an IP address when you start it. did you do the DOS promp command to get all the PC connection info? You sound like you know your networking so i am sure you did but just in case at the DOS prompt type ipconfig/all it should give the ip, DSN, default gateways and tell you if DHCP in enabled or not. Also some systems need to have network sharing set up to make connections. have you tried forwarding ports on your router to see if that helps? What type of router is it? UDP 88, UDP 3074, and TCP 3074 plus different firewalls and antivirus programs can cause connection problems. Just trying to throw out anything i can think of so do not get mad if you already know all of this.
