oh and i also just found this out
if i go to the system menu and select the 'use original microsoft dash for time and day, dispaly saettings etc.' option, it loads up to old dash(which i thought i had accidently deleted) and the ethernet plug lights up green, and says cable connected. as soon as i go back to the custom dash, it goes away. this happened in both evolutionX and avalaunch

looks like maybe your ethernet port is disabled when you are in the custom dash...try using normal internet instead of crossover cable, see if the port at least lights up. if not, it is probably disabled somewhere. look through your settings and see if there is something disabled where it shouldn't be, or maybe even re-install evoX

LOL it wasnt crossover? well that may be part of it...LOL

anyways i was only suggesting you try with straight-through cable just to see if it would light up-when youre FTP'ing, always use crossover

Ok, hello, i am having a problem with this whole FTP shizzle. I have read countless tuts and I dont know what to do. Look :

WinSock 2.0 -- OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May 2006
[R] Connecting to 192.168.0.100 -> IP=192.168.0.100 PORT=21
[R] Connection failed (No route to Host)
[R] Delaying for 120 seconds before reconnect attempt #1
[R] Connecting to 192.168.0.100 -> IP=192.168.0.100 PORT=21 (attempt # 1)
[R] Connection failed (No route to Host)
[R] Delaying for 120 seconds before reconnect attempt #2
[R] Connecting to 192.168.0.100 -> IP=192.168.0.100 PORT=21 (attempt # 2)


I am getting this from FlashFXP. I have a couple of questions, is it ok if your local area network says tahts its unpluged? And I think , THINK, my problem is the cable. How do I distinguish which is which.

WHAT!!!

yes, you have a problem with your cable. a big one, seeing as it says local area connection is unplugged-it should only say that when the xbox is OFF. you need to go and buy an approx. $15 crossover cable and use that. make sure it is a crossover cable, not a CAT5, and also, i do hope that you are trying this with your xbox ON-these are elementary mistakes LOL

it looks almost identical to a normal ethernet/CAT5 cable. the only way you would distinguish it between an ethernet cable would be to look at the package in the store. it should say "crossover" or "crossed". unless you have the kind of access to the wire that you can look inside at the colours, just read the labels.

um no you can't...it wouldn't work, and when you think about it, that would defeat the purpose of a crossover cable...LOL look:
a crossover cable is a cable used to directly connect 2 computers(1 ur PC, one ur xbox) together to transfer data, files ect. without hubs or routers. so it would defeat the purpose of the cable.

what you do is, connect your xbox from the ethernet port on ur xbox, to the ethernet port on your computer. NOT through the router.
