Hi, I've been trying to get this to work for the past 8 hours. I'm using evox and flashfxp. I, to my knowledge and reading the other faqs have set up my IP addresses and gateways correctly. however whenever i try connecting the connection always times out. it used to say unable to connect, no route to host, not sure what i did, but it doesn't say that anymore?? any help would be much appreciated. ciao
step 1
On xbox goto system utils > settings > network
step 2
change settings to
setup network : yes
use static IP : yes
ip : 192.168.0.3
subnetmask : 255.255.255.0
default gateway : 192.168.0.1
DNS 0.0.0.0
DNS 0.0.0.0
STEP 3
on your PC
WIN 95/98/me
right click *my network places* select *properties* then double click *internet protocol (TCP/IP)* then select *use following ip address*
WIN XP
right click *my network places* select *properties* then right click *local area connection* select *properties* then double click *internet protocol (TCP/IP)* then select *use following ip address*
step 4
now insert following
IP address : 192.168.0.1
Subnetmask : 255.255.255.0
default gateway : 192.168.0.1
when you have done this confirm all windows and restart your pc if necessary
step 5
connect your network cable (crossover if direct pc > xbox)
step 6
start flash fxp
make a new connection
insert following
IP 192.168.0.3
USERNAME : xbox
PASSWORD : xbox (if still default)
click connect
** crossover cable should look the same at both ends except the greens and oranges should be reversed.
