Hey, I'm not technical at all. And I was wondering if I could use my ethernet cable that came with my broadband to transfer files from my computer to my xbox.

What you need to do is find out if it's a crossover or a straight one.
Hold the 2 ends side by side and look at the colors of the wires inside. If they are in the sane places it's no good..If different then go for it.

I can't seem to put anything onto my Xbox. I have suceeded in all the steps and am to the point to drag files over and everything. When I do, I get a reading that states that...
[R]Transfer Failed!
1 File failed to transfer
and now I am receiving a
[R]421 Too many users are connected please try again later.
[R]Connection failed

what FTP program are you using?
are the file names that you are trying to transfer really long?
Because depending on what mod you have on your Box, you can only transfer a certain amount of text in the file name.
Most FTP programs will not give you an explantion as to why.
But will give you, "Transfer Faled!"

Heres the rules for FTP concerning filenames.
File names must be less than 24 characters including spaces. They may not contain { ( ) ' or , and the only . allowed is immediately before the last 3 i.e. .mp3
The "too many users" problem is because you have reconnected attempting to transfer without disconnecting first. Don't just close the window..actively hit the disconnect button each time it fails.
Sounds like FlashFXP to me

@ jbadam01 Get yourself an xbox autoinstaller disk..otherwise you are in for a very long and disappointing few weeks trying to find working versions of all the needed software.
As for live. Read up about being modded on live or it's gonna be a very short online gaming experience. This is the wrong thread for that..

thanks janrocks, but I tried the AID 3.0, it didn't work but the original ms dash won't read burnt discs, somehow I lost the config live app or dash or whatever it is, I tried to self install avalaunch, but after that it wouldn't boot to x3 config live anymore, I went in through computer hotswap method and erased the files I had added, making it back to original xbox, tried reflashing, but still wouldn't go back to x3 config and it won't read burnt disc

@ jbadam01 It sounds a little like you have some sort of bad connection on the D0 point.. Check the connections.
Other than that.. Make double sure of the bank select on the front panel. If that seems good and you can get to the flash bios screen then when you boot hold the white button when you boot. That should bring up the c/l screen.
If not then you need to reflash the bios.

hi there, i'm new here.
having real trouble connecting xbox to pc in order to FTP. it is REALLY starting to get on my nerves now. if anyone can help you are truly awesome, here is my set of circumstances:
- i am connecting using a wired router
- i am connecting using a cat5e patch cable
- i am using flash fxp as my FTP package
- all firewalls and anti-virus is turned off
- i am using avalaunch PreAlpha v0.48.60 as my dashboard
regarding my (saved) xbox network settings, here they are:
DHCP: Enabled
Static IP: 192.168.0.180
Gateway IP: same as my PC
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
DNS1: 195.159.0.100
DNS2: 195.159.0.200
PROXY: Disabled
(PROXY IP: 10.0.0.1)
(PROXY port: 8080)
- when in flash fxp, i am entering the static IP as above as my Server or IP detail, with username and password both as "xbox"
- when attempting to connect, flash fxp tells me that i am connecting, then that i am connected - then it times out, time and again.
please help me before i tear all my hair out!
thanks a lot in advance.

I also need a little help...
I used to be able to do this without hassle on my other com but when it got spilt on, it doesnt work anymore. Now that im hooking up this com to my xbox, im going through alot of trouble. Here's what im working with:
Unleash Dash
FlashFXP
A HUB (don't have a router)
2 CAT Cables
Is my static IP supposed to be similar to my coms IP or Ethernet Adapter ?
Static was getting confusing so I tried to fiddle with DHCP. When I Switch to DHCP and reboot, my IP is 0.0.0.0
I don't know what happened ?
When life gives you lemons, make grape juice, and let life see how you managed THAT !

I'm on the verge of madness. I've been trying to set up FlashFXP and so far no-go. I have XMBC loaded on my xbox and I've tried to follow the tut. but again no-go. I'm trying to set up using the Satic IP (that seems to be the way to go), but everytime I try to connect I get the same thing:
[R] Connecting to XBOX -> IP=192.168.1.106 PORT=21

I'm not sure if i've overlooked a tut. for how to run FlashFXP on Xbox Media Center, but I'm in a bind. I beg for assistance.

Hi, I have a problem with the FTP-ing.
I want to softmod my xbox through a friends xbox, so I downloaded 2 zip-files from xbins, and then I extracted them to a folder. I know that I need to transfer files like games, apps or emus to the E-drive. But when I do, I cannot find the files in the MS-dashboard. I need the files in the savegame directory, so the game to install Linux (Splintercell) can recognise it. Can you help me?
@above: you need to set your xbox IP to 192.168.0.3, and your PC's to 192.168.0.4 :-)
