ok, i know this is just another FTP thread, but this really wont work.. i used to be able to connect my xbox to my PC through the router with a crossover cable. that stopped working. i have followed all the guides, word for word, none work. what i have running XP one linksys router one crossover cable modded xbox (XMBC) flash FXP my xbox settings Static: IP: 192.168.0.3 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway 0.0.0.0 DNS Server: 192.168.0.4 (yes i do reset xbox after saving settings etc) what i do/ happens: Ive tried this same method with the crossover cable connected to my router and PC. i go to Network Connections, right click Local Area connection, highlight TCP/IP settings and manually make the IP adress 192.168.0.4, gateway 255.255.255.0, last thing blank and the 2 DNS things blank, i go to Flash fxp, make the url thing 192.168.0.3, port 21, username/pw are xbox xbox i click connect then it says [connected PC or router]: connecting to 192.168.0.3 Connected to 192.168.0.3 [stays there for a minute] connection failed (connection lost) note, on local area connection, it says connected for both and im an administrator what am i doing wrong?...
why not just plug your pc directly to the xbox?. here should be your seetings: pc ip: 192.168.0.2 submask: 225.225.225.0 xbox ip: static xbox ip: 192.168.0.3 submask: 225.225.225.0 gateway: 192.168.0.2 Now start FTP and enter this: url:192.168.0.3 username and pass: xbox and tada!
well that works [thanks] but i found out, accidentally, that it only works with unleashX open, same static settings...why doesn't xbmc work?
