H0TL1N3 1 Posted August 29, 2019 So I'm interested in trying out LiNK on my Xbox. Problem is, I can't. At the moment, I'm running 0.7b r1622. I'm using a Wi-Fi connection, my xbox is able to connect to unity and my dash is 17526. I've tried verifying my LiNK connection with the Nova Module. Every single check is passed, except for the Data Port and the Broadcast Port. They are 3072 and 3071 respectively. I've tried to add them to my Virtual Server on my Huawei B315s-22 router using my Xbox's IP, but, sadly, it doesn't work. The screenshots of it are attached. LiNK itself is Enabled, and the boxes for RSS Feed and UPNP are ticked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 29, 2019 Try other ports. Your router has an DMZ Option ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd have to try the other ports a bit later since I'm transferring files to my console, but DMZ functionality is there.

H0TL1N3 1 Posted August 29, 2019 By the way, which ports should I try? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 29, 2019 Move your Xbox 360 in router dmz and see what happends. Try other ports like 3072, 3074 and so on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 29, 2019 DMZ Should work. If a device is moved in dmz, its the same like your device stands outside of a firewall. All ports are reachable. What kind of internet connection (DSL, cable, mobile) did you use ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 29, 2019 A mobile connection is bad. In most cases you cant forward ports. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 29, 2019 The most mobile provider allocate private IPs for the customers. But if you want forwards´ ports you need a public IP. Its available in some expensive, or special contracts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only to host 😉 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

H0TL1N3 1 Posted August 29, 2019 So... Something happened. I've changed the ports back to 3072 and 3071 on the router and on the console, but during the verification phase the ports still couldnt be reached. I decided to boot up Halo: Reach, and, to my surprise, I could actually see people's rooms and connect to them, but I don't have any idea how to actually play with them 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 29, 2019 If ports are blocked you can always join a game session, but you can`t host a game for your friends. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most games do not allow for joining while in progress Edit: you can also try different port range.. You COULD try ports 8000 and 8001.. The specific ports you are trying could be blocked period.. But others are free Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morpheous 6 Posted August 31, 2019 You also need to enable UPNP within your router settings and in the Nova settings within Aurora. try that and see if all the ports are open and pass. I setup my network with 2 subnets. The 1st network is the cable modem and router, the 2nd network is connected to a 2nd router via cat5 cable. This is done, so i can have my own wireless network for my devices that use wifi like my Samsung A20 phones and ipad tablets and such. can't do that with a LAN to Lan network setup. So i setup a LAN to WAN setup. My network doesn't pass the data and broadcast ports, because of this. It's only when i disconnect the LAN cable coming from one of the 1st routers lan port, directly into my RGH 360, will i pass the Data and broadcast ports. I don't host often anyway, so i don't really care. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then you will pass.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UPNP is activated. Do you really need to respond with such an attitude? This is the gratitude you receive, when someone takes the time to respond to someone, asking for help. Regardless of the fact you already wrote that you had enabled UPNP, it isn't justification for being a prick! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
