    I have read guides etc to connect pc to xbox but it seems impossible
    i have a chipped xbox running evolution x
    crossover cable running straight from pc to xbox no router
    pc set to
    pc ip :192.168.1.100
    xbox ip :192.165.1.103 for some reason it wont stay at 192.165.1.105
    both subnet masks to 255.255.255.0
    both gateways to 192.168.0.1

    if anyone has any ideas it would be great.
    cheers fimbo

    try this

    On pc:
    ip 192.168.1.100
    subnet 255.255.255.0
    gateway is blank
    DNS is blank

    On xbox set "STATIC"
    ip 192.168.1.101
    subnet 255.255.255.0
    gateway 192.168.1.100
    DNS is blank


    Use flashfxp

    you have to change it to "static" NOT DHCP. then change the ip address and save. then reboot => settings. then check ip again.

    use static ip yes
    how can i tell if it is dhcp it doesnt say that on the screen.
    so why has my ip changed
    by the way i have never connected my pc to an xbox before or to an other pc do i need to leave the internet on to do it.

    in blue writing at the top which i think is my pc i.p it says
    192.168.0.3
    also near the botoom in white writing which i think is my xbox i.p it says the same
    192.168.0.3

    if i alter the white ip adress and come out of settings then back into the settings menu it returns to 192.168.0.3
