What you're going to need:

1 or 2 network cards ( NIC?s ) You?ll need 2 if you want to be connected to the internet at the same time that you're connected to your Xbox.

1 crossover cable. Very important you have a crossover cable. This is how you know if you have a crossover cable take the 2 male ends of the cable put them side by side. if the colored wire patterns are exactly the same it means you have the WRONG cable. You know if you have the right cable when the wires look mixed up or in a different pattern compared to other end. Or it will say it on the packaging of the cable.

An Xbox running Evolution X

A copy of FlashFXP.(or your preferred FTP program)

What you need to do next is configure your computer's IP address. So go into your computer network connections and go into the properties of the NIC that is connected to the internet. Select the option for assigning an IP address automatically.

Now for the NIC that is connected to the XBox. Go into the properties and select use the following IP.

Next, where it says IP address, enter: 192.168.0.1 Where it says Subnet Mask, enter: 255.255.255.0, and where it says default gateway enter 192.168.0.1

While still in the properties of the NIC click on the configure button, click on the advanced tab, then click on network media and set it to 10baseT full duplex.

Now your computer should be ready to go.

Now you want to start up Evolution X and go into the system settings and get your IP address. It's usually 192.168.0.3 or something like that. Make a note of it.

Now load up Flashfxp

Flash FXP:
1. Download this program
2. Open it up and click on ?Site Manager? then click ?new site?
3. Name the new site whatever you want, (My Xbox, Xbox, etc.)
4. Go to IP and enter the IP you got from Evolution X system setting menu
5. The port should always be 21
6. Your username and password will both be "xbox"
7. Hit the "Options" tab and click off passive mode COMPLETELY.
8. Now apply and then connect.

This is all you should have to do get it to work.
