tx3 5 Posted February 19, 2014 hi with my router TP-Link i did not manage to open ports for my xbox ..to use link i followed this guide Every Thing You Need to Know to Make LiNK Work - Tutorials - RealModScene the part that confused me is thisonce in the router’s setup page, navigate to networks and look for something called either UPnP or NAT (NAT=UPnP --- UPnP=NAT --- they both are same) and tick it if its not already ticked and if it is, then LEAVE IT ALONE. Next, navigate to application, under it click port forwarding and give it a rule name e.g. xbox, give it a ip address e.g. in my case its 192.168.2.76 there are 14 devices that are connected to my router; so that means ip address from 192.168.2.2 to 192.168.2.15 are already assigned. I took 76 because that way I know my xbox’s ip address will never conflict with other devices.Go to port range and type 1 in first box and 62222 in the next and select udp and tcp both.- Just be more sure that all your ports are forwarded correctly, you can insert your xbox’s ip address in the DMZ box and enable it. That way you are 100% sure that all your ports are forwarded.here is my Interface the point with "Go to port range and type 1 in first box and 62222 in the next and select udp and tcp both". confuses me a lot.i dont know wher to go - Virtual Servers`?or is it - Port Triggering?thats how Virtual Servers looks like sorry for my bad english you guys....

Swizzy 2085 Posted February 19, 2014 You set it in the second one (Virtual Servers) but, i highly DO NOT recommend that you do as he said "forward range 1 to 62222" because it'll open your box to the world completly, it's like using DMZ... Instead, add 2 forwards; one for the Broadcast (same as the one you've set in the F3 settings) and one for the Data... (again same as in F3 settings) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyblackout 30 Posted February 20, 2014 I know it would be bad to put a pc in your DMZ. But what would be the danger of putting an xbox on the DMZ? It's not like there's any security exploits for the xbox 360 console. Are there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tx3 5 Posted February 20, 2014 I need a static IP adress for that right? my setup right now is something like this router ...>laptop...>LAN ...>Xbox i never did this before, how do i set it up right i go to NXE ..change under Network from Auto to Manually and put an IP adress, as i wish ..something like 192.168.1.X right? DNS gets the Router IP (Gataway) ...but do i need to do something more ..like on the Router interface? and second question do i need to update dashlaunch .. I am on 3.09 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyblackout 30 Posted February 20, 2014 If you're using Internet Connection Sharing to connect your xbox to your network via the laptop, then it should pick up an IP address automatically (if DHCP is enabled on the router). If you decide to statically set the IP Adress you need to be on the same subnet as the router. So if your router is 192.168.1.1, then your laptop and xbox needs to be something like 192.168.1.X. It's always best policy to have the latest software on your RGH/JTAG (especially if you plan on using link). Dashlaunch 3.11 and FSD 3 v775 are the latest.
