FTP/ Networking Question??? Ask Here...

Hmm, well mine doesn't turn off of flash orange and green...but i'm stilol having those FTP troubles...

 

Lelouche....
I feel your pain.....

 

chunkhead & lelouche......


Finally I can say I DID IT!

This is how:
I got sick of fooling around with ips and re installed evox into my xbox using the slayers installer disc that i backed up ages ago.
what happened was, it restored the DEFAULT IP adress, subnet, gateway, and DNS. I did this because i couldnt remember what they were originally or i would have changed them back manually instead of reinstalling evox.

Any way to make it easier for you lelouche, here are the defaults:

XBOX

IP: 192.168.1.200
Subnetmask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 194.63.248.1
DNS: 217.13.7.140

INPUT THEM INTO EVOX SETTINGS & DONT CHANGE THEM
make sure static IP is enabled (YES)
Now for the PC settings (static) I changed the IP to :192.168.1.205
I inputed the same subnet, gateway and both DNS's exactly the same as on the xbox settings. In SIte manager of FlashFXP, I changed the ip to match the xbox ip.
I pressed APPLY & then Connect. It worked!!!!!!!!!!!

Well i hope it works for you too. Chunkhead thanks for all your help, without your knowlege, i would still be stuck at optusnet wondering what an FTP was......

 

Those IP addresses shouldn't have made any difference. It must have been a corruption on your Dash! Glad you got it to work though...

 

@CHUNKHEAD....

O.K ive gotten as far as ftping into my xbox using FlashFXP.
I was transferring fight night round 3 from D: to a folder on my PC. I transferred 1.3gig out of about 2.5gig without any problems, until I got this error message:


421- No More Users Allowed.
Connection failed (Connection lost)
Delaying for 120 seconds before reconnect attempt #1
Connecting to my xbox -> IP=192.168.1.200 PORT=21 (attempt # 1)

I thought it may be a firewall prob. I have Norton and i disabled the firewall, but after 1 hr it turned itself back on again.(I thought 1hr would have been enough time to complete the transfer)

I turned off the firewall again but i keep getting the same message??

 

Norton should burn in HELL!!!

Norton is basically a virus!

3rd rate software that infects every pat of your computer, from general Windows areas to the registry. Absolute bastard to get rid of!

Anyway, firstly, I'd delete Norton. Seriously, a waste of time.

If you want a firewall I recommend 'Lavasoft Personal Firewall', almost identical to Zonealarm, but without all the headaches. You should also turn off the Windows firewall, all it does is stop basic things happening (Like your FTP). If a hacker is smart enough to get into your computer, Windows firewall will be least of his issues!

 

Chunkhead....

Im a little reluctant to delete Norton, although I agree with you.
Norton is a major pain. Its the second time ive had Norton, the first time I did end up deleting it!!
The reason for my reluctance is that my wife spends alot of time on the net, and she doesnt know what to avoid when it comes to viruses and spy ware. I was forever cleaning up after her. Had Spybot, it was great but she didnt know how to use it and was allowing bots and blocking critical operating procedures!( i admit, spybot sd is not very clear as to what its blocking and allowing, youd have to be a computer programmer some of the time.)

If it will solve my problem ill delete, but i paid $170 for the bloody thing!!!

 

If you are worried about spyware and viruses then use Firefox.

When you get Firefox, install the following extensions:

Adblock Plus
Adblock FiltersetG
Remove It Permanently
NoScript (This is the best)
Dutchblock

I promise you, if you get these you will have almost no popups, spyware, malware etc.

I run Adaware and Spybot once a month, somtimes they find one, but mostly not.

 

Hey,
My computer is connection to my Xbox Soft Modded Dashboard, I'm using XBMC, so basically EvoX. Anyways I can watch movies from my computer on my xbox, and listen to music and view photos. I can also connect to my computer or ftp to my xbox via my PC.

However I have been trying to backup a game lately, but each time the game is in the drive of my Xbox the PC, using FlashFXP as the FTP, loses connection with my xbox. I am using a Cat. 5 UTP cable. If i'm not mistaken this is a Straight Through cable, it's the latest version of XBMC and my Network Assignment is Default (Dashboard). I can connect whenever except for when there is a gaming running.

 

Is your Xbox setup to auto run the game when inserted? It won't work like that. The FTP connection must stay open.

Turn off the Auto Play in 'Settings' and try again. You want to insert the disc, Xbox will recognise it, but stay at the dash!

 

Thanks that worked.

 

No problem! I like when they are easy fixes like that!

 

hey i got some probs and need some help

i got xbox connected directly to comp w/ rj45 crossover

im runnin internet through usb wireless

(if u look at this website my setup is just like setup E)

ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!!!

 

What do you mean by "LAN Connection"?

If your NIC is installed in the PC correctly, it should be available to configure.

Check your 'Device Manager' for a conflict...

Here's mine:

As you can see, no conflicts.




If you type 'ipconfig /all' into a CMD prompt, you can also see your NIC info...




If you can't get adapter info then your NIC either isn't installed correctly or is missing drivers!

 

ok i went through CMD to check the status
and its really weird

when i get to the same spot that you have circled, instead of my NIC card (which was working perfectly until i had to reinstall XP on my comp), instead of my NIC card it has my wireless USB ("Linksys Wireless-B USB Network Adapter v2.8")

And where on ur CMD screen it says "Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection" mine says "Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection"

is my NIC card not installed? missin drivers?

 

i went through to my add hardware

and where it says my NIC card the only driver installed is the wireless USB one

i was wondering if you could tell me how to install the Ethernet driver

i believe thats the problem but i have no idea how to fix it

 

Have you got a NIC onboard (built into the motherboard) or are you using a PCI one?

Motherboard ones will have drivers on the CD that came with the motherboard, the PCI version will require a download from the manufacturer.

However, in your device manager, the card should be visable, just conflicted.

If it's a PCI card, re-seat it into the motherboard, it may be loose.

 

Hi, Does anyone know how to set up a Mac to FTP into a xbox?

 

Sorry I should say using a crosover cable, so direct Mac to Xbox.

 

The MAC setup is the exact same as PC. Ensure that the IP Addresses are on the same network and then just use an FTP client for MAC.
