Ok, I tried some way that i saw from some guy which was going to the "Local Area Connection Status" properties. Then going to the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)'s" properties and was told to click on "Use the following IP Address" option and entering my xbox's IP address. It worked once and i made some skins for it. But when i tried to FTP agian it didnt work. Whats going on? Can someone please help? When i try to connect agian it tells me that the IP address in already in use and to input another one! IM GETTING REALLY MAD! Oh, by the way im using EvoX. I know theres problems with this softmod but i dont know how to get or install Avalanche or whatever. Also i have a router that only has 1 ethernet port so i cant do that other thing. I can only connect the ethernet directly to the back of my pc. Please someone please help!

Calm Down...If you get frustrated with these things, it will only get worse. Think about what you've done because your problem is obvious. Your xbox has a Static IP address, it must. How do I know. Because you went to that "LAN CONNECTION" on your PC and input the same address as your xbox. That's why your system is saying there is a duplicate address on the Network.
- Make sure you are using a crossover cable
- Change that LAN connection on your PC to a different number (one that doesn't already exist on your network. Most importantly, one different from that of your xbox
- Yes EvoX has problems but that doesn't mean it's non functional. Personally I prefer Avalaunch.
In order to connect directly to a LAN connection, that connection must have a static IP created (like you did) but just make sure it is a different IP than what's being connected to it. No two people have the same Social Security Number and IP addresses must be different for components on the same Network.
Ensure at least those areas are covered and try again.

You're welcome...but lets get you fixed and FTPing.
You don't need to change your PC's IP address. It's the LAN connection address I was referring to. As for how to change it you stated the correct steps in one of your previuos posts. This one, LoneWolfD (Newbie) 2. July 2005 @ 05:24, you did everything right as for the steps. You just need to go back and make sure that the IP address you assign to that LAN connection is not identical to any IP on your network. Otherwise, you'll get the same message as before.
Crossover cable...How to check. Make sure the LAN connection you are plugging into has an IP address. Power on you XBOX & PC, plug the xbox into that connection. See what is displayed on the XBOX as the IP address. If it comes up something like Er.x.x.x. (I think)...your cable is probably not a crossover or you didn't properly assign a static IP to that LAN connection. SOMETIMES...it may be written on the LAN cable itself if it's crossover or not.

Don't forget to assign a static IP to your Lan COnnection. Make it like your xbox's IP but change the last digit. (i.e. 192.168.0.5)

When i plug the LAN into the PC from my Xbox an IP pops out. It reads (192.168.0.3). The only other IPs i see are Subnet, Default Gateway and some server one. All this doesnt make sence to me.

"housedad" WRONG FORUM FOR XBOX LIVE ISSUES...
"LoneWolfD"
I will try to explain again "in baby language".
You are trying to connect your xbox to your PC for the ability to transfer files between the two, right? There is one question I should have asked besides that...how many LAN connections do you have on your PC? They are the adapters that look like an oversized phone cable, identical to the one in the back of the xbox.
- IF you have one on your PC...And you have assigned an IP (Internet Protocol) address to it then it's ready to be connected to it.
WHAT IS A STATIC IP ADDRESS: For your current needs; Bsically an identification number for everything on your network (i.e. a name, social security number, street address, etc.) so "yep, you guessed it" so everything can easily be identified.
DO YOU NEED A STATIC IP ADDRESS? YES!!! Because you are using a direct connection between your xbox and PC.
NOTE: If you were using a Hub or Router to establish your network, DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), which basically assigns addresses to everything on your newtowrk automatically or Static IP set up would both be available to you.
HOW DO YOU ASSIGN A STATIC IP? Honestly dude, you told me how you did it and it was right. like I said before, you just need to make sure nothing on your network had te same IP address. Here is a link to a tutorial on how to set it up on your PC. http://www.portforward.com/networking/staticip.htm
If you have more than one LAN connection in the back of your PC, use the one that is not in use by your PC. If you only have one, just make sure it has a static IP address (use the tutorial) and move on to your xbox.
You xbox will also need to have a static IP address. You said that currently, it displays an IP address but that doesn't mean it's a Static IP address. You are gonna need to search in the Network Settings of your xbox and see if DHCP is enabled or not. If it is enabled, you will need to disable it, restart your xbox, go back to the settings, create a static IP (anything different from your computer's) and fill in the other information so it's identical to your PC.
EXAMPLE: If you PC's Setting look like...
IP Address......192.168.0.5
Subnet Mask.....255.255.255.0
Default Gateway.192.168.0.1
DNS Servers.....202.128.5.1
.....202.128.23.1
When you enter you xbox's settings, input everything your PC's settings show and create a new IP address for your xbox (i.e. 192.168.0.10)
I hope this gets you off on the right foot.

For your Flash FXP problem...you've get to supply the members more for us to be able to help...
How are you attempting to connect your xbox? (Directly or over a network)
Which dashboard are you using?
Do you have other dashboard options?
What error is being displayed if any when you try to connect?

i am using evoX and i am trying to connect to my xbox with a ethernet crossover cable, i know that the computer is accepting the xbox as a valid network because the LAN settings r no longer locked when i turn the xbox on, it is also static. ok, now my prob. well i have put all the necessary data into flash, ip, user and password. The internet protocol is what i am not sure about: i not that u set the ip different here, i have set it as 192.168.0.1, and the subnet mask as 255.255.255.0 and i have left everything esle blank. my xboxs ip is 192.168.0.3.
This is what comes up when i click ok in flash:
"Connecting to 192.168.0.3->IP=192.168.0.3 PORT=21"
then sometimes it says
"Connected to 192.168.0.3"
and it does nothing and goes onto say
"Connection failed(Connection timed out)"
but not very often, and it normally says
"Connection failed(Connection timed out)"

If I'm understanding you right..your xbox has a static IP assigned and you already have a connection initiated in Flash FXP for your xbox, minus the IP (Internet Protocol) address.
This should be an easy fix...
The connection you've set up in Flash FXP for your xbox...use the IP address displayed by your xbox and you should be good to go.

Another thing, i can see the Z Y X F E D C folders now in FlashFXP. When i have a game in, and when i go into the F folder theres nothing to view, it is an empty folder. When i connect in flash to the xbox, during the loading process a message comes up "this site may not allow file resuming". I have tried many games and none seem to work.

when i networked my xbox and pc i found the most important thing was the ip address the best thing to do is plug a rj45 into the xbox then that into a normal switch or a router and do the same with the pc once youve done that check to see if they both say there connected if they say they are the next step on the pc is to click start/run/cmd then type ipconfig this should bring up the ip address of the pc it should look like this Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>ipconfig
Windows IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : gateway.2wire.net
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.23.4
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.34.4.1
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 176.6.77.1
now you know the ip of the pc boot up your xbox and change the ip to match IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.23.4 but on the last digit go up one so if its 5 change it to six save and exit then reboot the xbox now go back to the pc and start up whatever ftp browser you have i use craxtion 4 works perfect for me and connect to the xbox and all should be well if not let me know and i might be able to help hope thats helped see ya later.

I have an unmodified, straight-out-of-the-box Xbox and I am trying to connect via FTP. However, I have been unsuccessful. Do I need to alter my Xbox in order to connect? I have a D-Link wireless router, and my computer is connected to the router by a standard CAT5 cable. My computer has only one ethernet port on it, and I have FlashFXP. If I wanted to connect to my Xbox through the router, what do I have to set on my computer and Xbox (IP adresses, etc.) to be able to connect? Do I have to use DHCP? Do I need a crossover cable? Do the IP addresses need to be the same or different? I'm so confused! My router has the IP 192.168.0.1 . I have tried using the command ipconfig /all but I do not have a DNS address. Please help!
Thanks in advance for whoever has something to offer.

that's what I thought. I tried it again today, and I was able to get the Xbox to load the settings from the DHCP in my router by attemting to connect to Xbox Live, but I couldn't access the files even though I had all of the info that I needed.
I have found an article about how to softmod, but I appreciate your help.
Thanks.
