hey, i need help trying to ftp into my xbox, i need help with what type of software to use, how to find out what my xbox's ip address is and all that sort of thing. can someone please help me!!!! Thanx Spider15
Not to sound like a prick there are several posts about this already, if you just look around you'll find them.
i no that there are other forums and stuff about them but they dont work for me and i get lost and confused most of the time
Hey, well the best program to use (my personal favourite) is FlashFXP. Your xbox's ip addy should be 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.2.
Ok, well you will have to explain to me how you are connecting the Ethernet cable to the Xbox. What i am doing is, because i have broadband and have a modem router. I change the modems... IP: 192.168.0.1 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Defult gateway: Left with nothing in it. This is the start of the process, but i need to know how you are going to connect your computer to the xbox in order to give you are specific guide on how to do it.
basically (if you havent been told yet) your router should be 192.168.0.1 what your router does is issue your computer AND the xbox separate IPS through dhcp so your pc will be something like 192.168.0.2 and your xbox will be something like 192.168.0.3 the gateway on the pc AND the xbox should be 192.168.0.1 your subnet mask is correct... should be 255.255.255.0 on all machines if u are confused.. just know that your router's firewall needs to be set to allow it to accept connections in the private network and that your pc and xbox IPs should be 192.168.0.x (x not equal to 1) you probably have been told already... this is just a quick note on procedure remember you have to set your xbox settings to these on EACH dashboard you are using.
ok if u are using a crossover cable (like me) then the same thing applies basically... u would set your EXTRA ethernet card as the router... meaning: extra e.card: IP - 192.168.0.1 sub - 255.255.255.0 gateway - the ip of your primary internet source (your REAL IP) OR you can leave the gateway blank for it (its only needed if u wanna be able to access the internet on ur pc AND the xbox together)\ xbox settings should be the same: ip - 192.168.0.x (x not equal to 1) subnet - 255.255.255.0 gateway - 192.168.0.1 (ip of the card above) you should be set with those settings... remember the set ur firewall correctly
ok wat is my 'EXTRA ethernet card' is it just the port in the back of my computer?? and how do i change the IP, subnet and gateway?? ip - 192.168.0.x (x not equal to 1) wat does x not equal to 1 mean??? thanx spider15
if you only have 1 ethernet card do this: plug in your crossover cable to the xbox and pc. once your pc picks up the connection, go to my network places and open the settings for your network connection by pressing the properties button. in the window for your device go to 'General' tab > scroll down to internet protocol > click 'properties' when the properties window opens, choose 'use the following ip address' ip = 192.168.0.1 subnet = 255.255.255.0 gateway = doesnt matter since you wont be able to get online anyways dns = dont worry about it click ok and exit all the way out. now go to your xbox and insert: ip = 192.168.0.x NOTE: THE 'x' SHOULD BE ANY NUMBER OVER 1 (thats what i meant by that earlier statement) subnet = 255.255.255.0 gateway = 192.168.0.1 dns = dont worry about it check your firewall... u should be good to go
i guess i should mention. You can click on your network device and find your way to the 'internet connection sharing' window and that should set the pc part up FOR you... ull still have to set the xbox up tho. ^^^ probably easiest
okay thanx 4 that, just one omre thing to edit the xbox settings with the ip and all that do i do that in flashfxp or what if not how do i cange that?? thanx spider15
in flashfxp you need to quick connect: server or Url = 192.168.0.x (whatever u set your xbox to) user name = xbox password = xbox thats all... u should be fine... bed time for me
i did all that but its still not working, i put in the Ip addresses into the xbox and the computer but it keeps saying 'timed out'
what dashboard are you using? then we can tell you how to change it in your dash // you will change your IP address on your computer like he said 192.168.0.1 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway Leave blank for now. Next you need to change your IP address "INSIDE" your xbox In Evolution X its under settings, youll see where it sais IP address set it to 192.168.0.2 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway 192.168.0.1 Now, with the crossover cable connected start up Flash FXP go to quick connect, for site address put 192.168.0.2 Username: xbox Password: xbox connect...
