    I know I am not brain dead, but after trying every suggestion here, I sure could qualify as such. And I have torn out the remaining hairs on my shiny head.

    Somehow, on my xbox's settings, the IP address shows as
    192.168.1.4
    No matter what I input to alter this, after reboot, (and yes I went to bottom of screen and saved before exiting), the screen reverts to this:
    TYPE Static
    IP 192.168.1.4
    Line Status 100/Full Duplex
    (Lower down the screen):
    IP 192.168.0.1
    Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
    Default Gateway 192.168.0.1
    DNS 192.168.0.1
    DNS 217.13.7.140
    Setup Delay 1

    I am using a direct (crossover) cable from PC to Xbox

    FlashFXP settings:

    Site Name
    xbox
    Port 21
    IP Address 192.168.0.1
    (Alternates):
    192.168.0.101
    192.168.0.2
    192.168.0.201

    I am unsure what I am doing wrong, why the settings I have input do not save, nor why this is so frustrating, yet so many oithers are breezing through it.
    Has anyone invented a simple program that can sense all the settings and either do them or help idiots such as me do it more easily?

    Any help is appreciated.
    (Rogaine is useless now) :)

    What dashboard are you using?

    I'm not sure why it's not saving, but if your xbox's ip is staying static at 192.168.1.4, you should set your computer's ip to 192.168.1.1. Another thing to ensure is that your subnet mask is identical to that on your xbox. It's really strange that your xbox has two separate ip's, but the first one, I imagine, is the address that you should connect to using your ftp program.

    Perhaps a simpler solution would be to change your dash. I use UnleashX, which works very well. XBMC sounds like it works well, also.

    You'll want to set your xbox's ip address to 192.168.0.2. The computer should be the host. You could also try commecting through windows explorer. Just open "my computer" and type in "ftp:192.168.0.2".

    Also, did you manually configure your system's ip?

    what is your network configuration.. do you have a router?? or a hub????

    This is very simple kindergarten level basic networking.

    I can see where you are going wrong.. but you will have to learn it yourself otherwise we will be back at square one every time you reboot either pc or xbox

    Going straight from pc to xbox
    no router or hub
    I have successfully reset xbox to 192.168.0.2
    Still flashfxp not connecting

    Maybe this is kindergarten stuff for you, but there are a few of us who are afraid to say what our issues are for fear of being insulted with comments like that.
    I, for one, gave up on the xbox for quite some time due to that very reason.
    When asking for help, I heard comments ranging from newbie, rookie and google it to dang you are stupid.
    You will have to learn it yourself is something I never thought I would hear on a forum.
    Aren't forums where people help each other with advice?
    Where would forums be if every question was answered with
    Go find out for yourself?
    Hopefully that was not your intent.

    I recently softmodded my xbox. Im trying to ftp via a crossover cable.
    xbox -
    static
    ip - 192.168.0.3
    subnet mask - 255-255-255-0
    DNS 1 -192.168.0.4
    Laptop -
    firewalls off. lan properties configured to
    ip - 192.168.0.4
    subnet mask - 255.255.255.0
    *connection refused - ping 100% loss*
    windows explorer ftp failed
    I have read countless tuts on the matter and none of the configurations suggested have worked. some say make the xbox ip and pc ip THE SAME others say set as above. i've tryed so many configs that im begining to think its the laptop itself. Is a desktop a requirement for ftp? I dont know what else to try.
    any help please

    I have my xbox connected to my Sky modem and that wirelessly gives me the internet on my laptop. I had it working a few days ago when rebooted my xbox with SlaYer 2.7. I reinstalled everything, made xbmc my dashboard and so on, FTP'd it with CoreFTP. Turned my xbox off then put it back on and it wont automatically pick up the connection again.

    The light on the front of the modem keeps flashing on and off too... The modem model is a Sagem.

    Ive looked at a million forums but they all have similar problems but not exactly mine.

    I know this a problem that pops up in forums all the time put they dont specifically help!

    Just wondered if any one would like to help me please?

    Hello everyone.
    I've read the forum but I just cant find an answer to my problem. I've bought an xbox 360 with iXtreme 1.6. When I try to run the DVD with Slayer EvoX or anything similar I get this message: "This original Xbox game is not supported on your Xbox360 console...etc". I would like to install this Evox because I'd like to make a FTP connection to my pc. I really dont know what to do.

    Does the xbox have to be modded either with a chip or soft to use FlashFXP? Mine isn't modded so when i try to connect it says that it is connected but then loses connection before showing any files.

    Surely your xbox is at the very least softmodded ?...

    (If it's modded that is) don't bother with FlashFXP, there's better out there, for instance (free) Filezilla from http://filezilla-project.org/

    strewth.. how many more times do we have to post the same basic networking guide? Wish the admins would get their fingers out and bring us the updated forums so we can close all this repetitive garbage down.
