The fsd feature or the game feature? System Link is when you connect 2 or more consoles in a local network, or with something like LiNK/xlink kai etc. LiNK (the fsd feature) is probably deemed better because you don't need to run a pc client and there are probably more ppl here because it is essentially ALOT easier to setup then xlink kai...

irishdave 236 Posted March 23, 2014 also, very few use xlink now, hence one of the modivations behind LiNK. If your router doesn't allow port forwarding, and you can't join a room, consider a new router. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So i need to bridge it but im having some troubles. I asked about that before here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obveron 6 Posted March 23, 2014 If you have two routers (modem router, and wireless router), you need setup port forwarding on the first router (your "modem") to the static IP address of your 360. It's rare that modems are just modems these days, if it's a modem and router in one (the norm) then you probably have two NATS (one from your modem/router and one from you wireless router). Just be sure that the "modem" is forwarding your LINK ports to you xbox. No need to setup anything on your wireless router, but if you can turn off NAT that might help. Make sure that your client xbox has the gateway set to the IP address of your modem, and DNS set to the IP address of your modem. You want to skip all routing/NAT features of you wireless router and just use the NAT of your modem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hansolo77 17 Posted March 23, 2014 The one benefit xlinkkai has is that it will work with UNMODDED xbox's. My friends up in Canada and I play Halo 2 together with it every now and then. You can't use LiNK with Unmodded consoles, so the only people you can connect to are other people running FSD. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
