thanx battle pope but i dont know how to do that..
i had this same problem with it on initial setup and it took days to figure out..along with the help of chris...
my router i guess is plug and play..so no setups or anything needed

 

[cjvictoria]

dude... battle pope.. where did you find out the service type and which port to forward???

I've been googling the fuck outta that shit for a week and can't find any definitive answers..

 

[Battle Pope]

Should be on your router's port forwarding screen.

Here's the support.microsoft page on it.

Which ports are required to be open for Xbox LIVE on your router or firewall

the required ports should be open by default

 

[cjvictoria]

Cool thanks pope... My buddie's xbox is going nuts, like... barely stays connected EVAR and if it does stay, it's laggy as piss. I'll forward that to him lol
I might even try that and see if it works better as well.

It's actually pretty funny though, he has a belkin wireless router, and i have netgear... but, last night we fucked around on forge for a while, then watched the replay..

xbl told us I must be the party leader cuz my connection is better. Fucker is always trying to say my shit lags. HAHA!! My shit don't laggg, even though it runs through a crappy netgear lol

 

[Battle Pope]

belkins are shit, wouldn't touch em. I like d-link and linksys personally.

 

[TurboMirage]

we replaced all of our clients' linksys routers with d-link n routers. Linksys/cisco has completely fallen out of the game, much like nortel.

 

[INJEN78]

well im runniing a cisco for the wired shit i have and then a netgear for everyone elses wireless

 

[purplehazin]

hey anybody here drag race on forza if so holla at me if u want to tune,race,trade paints,buy tunes,and i even race for pinks/credits. gamer tags are VI580340 and xXDODXxXBarbosa

 

[eg6sir]

i'm running a wired d-link, my connection is awesome..

 

[Battle Pope]

that's what I've got, an old wired d-link and a linksys access point for wireless.

 

[cjvictoria]

Yeah... my connection to the computer is wireless and sucks balls:


But still for XBOX Live, it works fine...

 

[eg6sir]

wow... i dont know how you play live w/ that connection.. .lol

 

[cjvictoria]

Here's what I've been up to this week:

These make GOOD drifters!

Got a bit dirty during an enduro, but check out the CF

More carbon fiber, this time on a Civic.

And my AB Flug Soopra got some CF treatment too...

One of my favorites right now, this car performs GREAT. I've been toying around with it for a few months now and it's at it's best so far (performance wise)

 

[INJEN78]

thats probably the best CF job ive ever seen..if i had live id ask you to do some of my cars

 

[eg6sir]

you should make it carbon kevlar.. just use a light yellow underneath the lines you put down..

 

[Battle Pope]

Of course the AC Cobra drifts well, it's got like a billion horsepower.

 

[cjvictoria]

you should make it carbon kevlar.. just use a light yellow underneath the lines you put down..

Yo know... I was thinking real hard about that one...

Anyone want a full carbon kevlar car? lol

 

[cjvictoria]

thats probably the best CF job ive ever seen..if i had live id ask you to do some of my cars

Well thanks! That M3 has literally over 1600 vinyls on it! Only takes about .5 hours to do one.

 

[eg6sir]

Yo know... I was thinking real hard about that one...

Anyone want a full carbon kevlar car? lol

i'll take one... i couldnt do a whole car.. too many layers... how about an EG.. lol

 

[cjvictoria]

coming right up. but it'll cost ya... say... 75,000 cr?

oh and btw, for some reason on certain cars, the pattern gets a bit fucked up after I save the design. The EG hatch happens to be one of those cars, and I'm still trying to figure it out on that one. So far the M3 E46 has no issues, and the AB Flug Poopra also has no issues. I have yet to do more so I'll let you all know what I come across as I get to them.
