"I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THIS ALL OF THE CREDIT GOES TO MY GOOD FRIEND DELIRI."
first of all you need a USB-To-Ethernet Adapater. this is used to connect your comp. and your xbox with your crossover cable. Then you need to connect your comp to your router with some cat-6. Go into your Network Connections. Highlight the two "Local Area Connections." Right click, "Bridge Connections." And Your connections are bridged!
And now to force host.
Open up CommView and select the ethernet/usb port that's being used by your XBOX. Hit the green | > button. Make a new party and have somebody join. An incoming connection to your XBOX should be made by an IP Address. Right click, copy, Remote IP. Now, right click, create Alias, Remote IP. Create an alias for the guy so you know who he is. Go into ZAP (ZoneAlarmPro) and on the left, hit Firewall. Then, towards the top, hit Zones. Now, at the bottom, you should see "Add >>". Click it, then hit Host/Site. Zone: Trusted, Host: your friends IP, Description: your friends name. Hit OK and then at the bottom hit Apply. Now you need to go to your XBOX and sign out alltogether. Right click in CommView, and hit "Clear Latest IP Connections." Sign into XBL and then look at your CommView. You should see a bunch of IP Addresses connected to your XBOX. First, copy each one of these and create a Host/Site in ZAP for each of this. Then, in CommView, create aliases for each of them. Now, back in ZAP, go to the "Main" tab in the "Firewall" section. Internet Security should be on Medium, and Trusted Zone Security should also be on Medium. Now start a new game and grab your friend. Get a large party, start the game, and pop your Internet Security up to High. Let the game start, and hold the BACK button while you're in blue screen. When you get into the game, the person without an X next to their name is the host. This SHOULD be your friend. Turn your Internet Security back to Medium, and have fun.
Now to give somebody else host in Matchmaking
I don't know how well this will work, or if it even will, because I've never tried it. Give it a try though. If it does work, please reply here to tell me. Get your friends IP in trusted along with XBL's IPs. Start a new party and have your friend [and a few others, if you want] join. Switch to the gametype you want, and put your Internet Security on High. Start the game, and your friend should be host.
