xbox live / pc router problem
Discussion
Hi All,
Apologies first - cross posted this into the computer games forum also.
Rcently had virgin cable broadband set up which runs into the lounge where the xbox and tv is.
PC is upstairs so bought a wireless router to get that online also.
Now when i'm playing online on the xbox - COD4 - I keep getting cannot connect to host errors.
this seems to happen mainly when invited to a party game.
The xbox is plugged into the router and the router into the modem. The pc upstairs runs from a wireless usb thingy.
If i unplug the router and plug the modem directly into the xbox i don't seem to have any problems but obv that prevents both the pc and the xbox being online at the same time.
the router is a SMC NETWORS BARRICADE N ROUTER.
Anyone shed any light on how to solve this problem?
oh i checked my system settings and the on most peopel seem to be compared about nac(??) is set to open.
Thanks in advance
Dan
