Title: Xbox live keeps disconnecting
Post by: Khare on 19 October 2011, 15:49

As title, every 10 or so minutes it'll disconnect from xbox live. Not sure if it's xbox live problems or my router problems.

Google the router setting for XBL. I had to mess about with port forwarding on mine when I first got it.

I keep getting it even though I've opened up the ports AND enabled DMZ for the xbox. I don't understand  :undecided:

I've connected it wirelessly, but I night have to try using a cable to see what happens.

I had similar issues with a wireless connection after an xbox update a few months back. The only solution I found was to use a wired connection instead.

TBH - I bought a home network adapter and the connection is loads better.

I've always run mine wired and TBH the occasional issues I've had have always been router settings related  :smiley:

Yeah I think wireless creates lots of problems. My PS3 ran wired and never had a problem.

I've just wired the connection and no issues whatsoever. Need to buy a longer cable and run it around my room now  :smiley:
