I softmodded my Xbox about 2 months ago and everything was working fine until 2 days after I first FTP'd to it. I was about to put some files on my xbox, but I misclicked and clicked on C. It was taking forever to open, so I tried to close FlashFXP, but it stopped responding, so I ended the process. I attempted to FTP a few hours later and got an annoying error - Server can't open data connection. This is the complete set of details from CuteFTP (FlashFXP's trial ran out);

STATUS:> Getting listing ""...
STATUS:> Connecting to FTP server 192.168.0.9:21 (ip = 192.168.0.9)...
STATUS:> Socket connected. Waiting for welcome message...

425 Can't open data connection to 192.168.0.1:35347
ERROR:> Server can't open data connection.
ERROR:> Failed to establish data socket.

FlashFXP gave almost exactly the same error, but had "List error" instead of "Failed to establish data socket.".

My computers settings, according to ipconfig/all are;
IP Address........192.168.0.1
DHCP Enabled......no
Subnet Mask.......255.255.255.0
Default Gateway...192.168.0.1
And my Xbox's are;
Type..............Static
IP Address........192.168.0.9
Subnet Mask.......255.255.255.0
Default Gateway...192.168.0.1
FTP is enabled and the password is xbox, I'm using a crossover cable (I think...) which could be damaged (though I don't think so) and I'm not using a router as I don't need one. I have also tried my old computer, which is a bit retarded, for lack of a better word (can't access the net/networks,has problems with autorun etc, etc.) but to no avail. I softmodded with Krayzie's UXE exploit and I use EvoX.

Also, I noticed that Auto-Installer Deluxe has a "Reset FTP" option on it's main menu - what does that do?

Sorry about the length of this post, but I wanted to give as much info as I could.

And finally, yes, I did accidently post this on the backup forum, the reason for that was being up at 4:30 am and going from google to a post there and clicking "Start a new thread".

edit: I can FTP from my brother's pc, but that is on the other side of the house.
