if you use Dynamic Host Config Protocol you use a straightthrough.

Correct me if i am wrong people....But DHCP isn't directley connecting to your computer.......Static with a crossover cable is direct connect!...

Trust me to direct connect you need a Crossover cable.....I mean it is in the books like it or not.........

Ahhh too much technical mumbo jumbo!

OK All I have is an ethernet cord, so I guess Im gonna have to do this DHCP thing, so could someone explain to me how!?!?!

And if no one can, can someone tell me what exactly a crossover cable is and how much it costs? And can I get it at best buy?

You just don't give up do you............If you want to use an Ethernet Cable then you need a wireless adapter which costs like $40 or $50.......Ok.......If direct then Crossover....If indirect Ethernet

I tried connecting my xbox to my computer with a system link but it didn't work. I still can't get an IP address! Can someone please post a mini-tut on how exactly to connect using Flash FXP?

can someone please help me load halo 2 on my xbox off the hard drive
my xbox is softmodded and I already ftp'd my xbox. I have all of the multiplayer maps and the campaign mode saved to my pc. I put the multiplayer maps, the mainmenu.map, the shared.map, the fonts folder, and the media folder all under halo 2 in the games section under the E folder on my xbox.

Halo 2 comes up under games, but when I try and load the game it says that the disk is dirty or damaged. I'm thinking wth because the disk isn't even in the drive.

I'm totally stuck and I'm a noob at this, so if you can help me please do and assume I know nothing. (EXPLAIN EVEN THE OBVIOUS)

@ElNacho

you have to use a crossover cable if you don't have a router.
I suggest a router because then and only then can you use a regular ethernet cable. (oh and it's just easier)
anyway, the modem connects to the router and the router connects to your xbox and pc.

one more thing, make sure you're using the unleashedX dashboard.

once you get it connected go to start on your computer and then run. type in command and hit enter
then a black box will come up with some writing in it. type "ipconfig/all" (without quote marks) hit enter.

write down these things on a sheet of paper:
1) the ip adress
2) the subnetmask
3) the default gateway
4) the DNS servers (there are two of them)(remember which is first and second)

go to start and then network and dial-up connections
double-click on Local area connection and then click properties
in a white box it should say: internet protocol (TCP/IP)
the box may already be checked if it isn't check it.
now highlight the internet protocol (TCP/IP) and click properties
make sure these two things are both checked:
1) obtain ipadress automatically
2) obtain DNS server adresses automatically
click ok all the way out of the windows and then x the window out

now download FlashFXP from this site:
http://www.inicom.net/pages/en.ffxp-home.php

turn on your xbox and go to system and then settings.
click network and the first thing you should see is: current ip adress
scoll down further and you should see: ip adress
make sure this ip adress is different from the computer's.
if it is the same just change the last part (ex. 02 becomes 03)
these should match your computer:
1) the ip adress
2) the subnetmask
3) the default gateway
4) the DNS servers (the first is the same as the first on the pc)
the second is the same as the second on the pc)
change the static on your xbox to DHCP
save the settings and reboot your xbox

now open FlashFXP (make sure your xbox is on and connected to the pc)
click the lightning bolt on the top and in the server or url space type in your xbox's CURRENT IP ADRESS. this is important, make sure it's the current ip adress.

NOTE: the current ip adress changes every time your reboot your xbox

under username and password type in xbox (make sure it's in lowercase)
the port should always be 21
hit connect

some folders should pop up. click E, then TDATA then 4d530064, then
4d53006400000001 or one of the other two depending on which map you want to mod. minimize flashfxp

create a foler on your computer desktop and title it halo 2
in the halo 2 folder create a folder titled "backups"

now maximize FlashFXP and on the left side click desktop, then halo 2, then backups. drag all of the maps off the right side (this is your xbox) to the backups folder on the left.
to get old maps on your pc (ascension, lockout, zanzibar, etc.) go on your xbox and click system the misc. then start ftp (halo 2 must be in your xbox, but don't launch the game)
under FlashFXP you should now see folder D.
this part is hard so write back for more info. I don't have time to write back more right now.

here's the tutorial.
write back if you want to know how to get the mods on your xbox

ok sooo can anyone answer the question witch one is better to install as a dash for xbx. Unleash X or Evolution X cuz someone said before that u should install EVO X and someone else said that u should install Unleash X. anyone?

btw; not a noob question. just u can confuse some people on this forum, specially the really slow ones who post a question before reading stuff so they make the people who explained the tutorial, basically say it over because they didnt read it or wat not. soo just a curious question for anyone whos wondering the same thing.

Clark: I'm not picking, I'm scratching.
Gus: Scratching what? Your brain?
Clark: Yeah, 'cause it's huge!!.

Get UnleashedX.
It's the only one that works with my tutorial. trust me.
I had many problems and I got it fixed perfectly.
I have halo 2 on my hard drive and already modded many of the maps.
If you want to have success modding, UnleashedX is the easiest way to go.

@FF7
hahaha for one u dont write it on a cd only if u wanna back it up but u dont really need to do that cuz its already on ur comp so u can just copy and past it to another folder and use it at a later time if u want. and .SPPF (super PPF) is only when u have .SPPF files, u cant do it with PPF (super meaning larger) so just use w.e. PPF prog u got load the iso up and the .ppf file, press apply and where u got the .map file at, load up that file onto the ftp and ur good to go.
