Title: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on October 09, 2011, 03:24:29 PM
I don't know if anyone has tested this but whenever I do System Link on Gears of War 3 one of the systems gets booted off Xbox live while the other one stays connected.

My router is setup according to the Xbox Live sticky only difference is a few wireless settings.

As for the Xboxs one is wired and the new one is hooked up via Wirelessly.

As for the Gamefuel stuff again from the sticky but I don't know why I get booted off Live on System Link (essentially its a Lan).

AFAIK Nothing shows up in my log with Firewall & Security, System and Critical are checked on the other 3 arent.

I've even hard coded in the IP, gateway and DNS for the xboxs I'm also using openDNS for now.

EDIT: I've had a second look at the sticky and I've removed the rules for adding additional xboxes, I had 2 gamefuel rules xbox 1 and xbox 2 which maybe caused the issue but I need to test this and report my findings later on.

Are you connecting the xboxes to the router or do you have a external switch by chance?
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on October 09, 2011, 04:58:47 PM
Both are connected to the router one is hard wired and the other is wireless.  As for a switch I don't have one.  I just tested it again without the rules and it still happens.  If we are not using system link no d/cs occur.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on October 09, 2011, 05:09:55 PM
So your trying to use one xbox on XBL and the other 2 on system link and the one xbox is being disconnected from XBL when the other 2 go to get on system link?
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on October 09, 2011, 05:19:16 PM
No I have 2 xboxes one is wired into the router the other is connected wireless.  System link for Xbox games is for lan parties but we are using it atm since I can't afford to pay for 2 Xbox live gold accounts.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on October 09, 2011, 05:33:12 PM
So when your using system link, do you have other xboxes online for these LAN parities?
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on October 09, 2011, 05:37:39 PM
It's just those 2 xboxes plus 2 computers and a laptop but most of the time they are idle.  I might check outgoing the Xbox forums if they have more info lol
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on October 09, 2011, 05:44:49 PM
Let us know...maybe someone on here can check your router settings to be sure. This is a first. Most of us have single and multiple xboxes however mainly play XBL and don't play system link. I have 3, maybe I'll fire them up and see what I can do to reproduce this problem.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on October 09, 2011, 08:29:48 PM
Well my router settings are:
802.11 Mode - Mixed N/G (used to be B/G/N but I no longer have B devices in use)
802.11 Band - 2.4 Ghz
Wireless Channel 11 (used to be Auto but a neighbour's wireless is overlapping on Channels 1 and 2 :P)
Transmission Rate - Auto
Channel Width - Auto
SSID Hidden
WPA2 Personal TKIP & AES

Gamefuel
Auto Classification Enabled
Auto Uplink Speed
As for the rules I'm using the ones from the updated section from your sticky.

Advanced Wireless:
Transmit Power - High
Beacon period - 100
RTS - 2346
Frag - 2346
WMM Enabled
Short GI Enabled
Extra Wireless Disabled

WISH - Enabled with all settings on

UpNp - Enabled

Thats about it for settings I suspect there might be something wrong with System Link but I'll have to email xbox about it or see if their forums have any solutions.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on October 09, 2011, 08:32:36 PM
You can disable SHORT GI and WMM. You can disable WISH if your not using it for stream video over wireless. I don't use it and havn't seen any issues with it off.

No I have 2 xboxes one is wired into the router the other is connected wireless.  System link for Xbox games is for lan parties but we are using it atm since I can't afford to pay for 2 Xbox live gold accounts.
According to the instructions, they either all have to be wired, or all wireless. Thats because when wireless and system link, it creates a ad-hoc network. And when they are connected wirelessly, they aren't connecting to the router at all, but to each other.

Oh is that the case?  Thanks for finding it out I appreciate it but I think its kind of dumb why I can't have a system link with Wired and Wireless =/  I might have to hard wire in the new 360 Slim to test.

As for the Short GI and WMM I enabled those for testing but I also read what they did in the help section.  My brother watches a lot of online streams on our family laptop so I'm not sure if that helps with the traffic or not.

For me, I have WMM enabled, as well as WISH since I stream a lot myself.  Don't forget to check Enable Multicast Streams under Advanced --> Advanced network also.

Short GI is not a 'cut and dry' setting.  I find my network works better with it off.  Test it yourself while your brother is streaming.

Does XBL use multicast addresses? Maybe Netflix in the 360, but I don't see how it would work through XBL itself.

Is multi-cast used on the LAN side only or both LAN and WAN?  ??? I only thought it affected the LAN side.

Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on October 12, 2011, 04:48:49 PM
Just tested it again and I still got d/c even with both boxes hard wired.  The 360 Slim automatically switches over to wired and disables wireless if you plug in an ethernet cable.

Looking at that xbox page again it says to use crossover cables which I dont have.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on October 13, 2011, 06:56:33 AM
How about using a external switch in conjunction with the router? These are recommended.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on October 14, 2011, 09:56:03 AM
I don't have a switch but I could buy one that is reliable and good quality lol

I did see a Cat6 Adapter that changes the cable to Crossover but its by startech.  Only thing is I only have 1 system using Cat6 and its my personal computer plus the cable isnt long enough to reach my other xbox lol
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on October 14, 2011, 09:59:00 AM
I would recommend getting a swtich to add on to the back of the router. This will clear up your issue. No need for cross over cables and adaptors.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: RocNrolla on October 15, 2011, 05:52:43 AM
Before Xbox Live came out, back when the first xbox was Launched we had LAN parties to play the original Halo. If we connected two xbox's only directly to each other it had to be a cross-over cable. If we used two or more Xbox's we used a switch or HUB and used regular ethernet cables.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on October 15, 2011, 08:49:21 AM
Thats probably still the case between one vs one xbox. Just easier to use a switch or a hub now days.  ;)
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on November 18, 2011, 02:53:35 AM
Well ever since I gave up on System Link I finally got myself a deal on a 3 month Gold sub for only $10 :P

Anyways I still suffer from random Xbox Live D/cs but it can happen at random it seems to happen more often when both xboxes are on (btw both are now hard wired).  I'm wondering for the Gamefuel rules in the sticky should I still use the Xboxa/xboxb rules or just stick with the updated ones?  I'm wondering if that will even change anything.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on November 18, 2011, 07:05:46 AM
You could try the old ones however I and other use the updated configuration and have multiple xboxes.

Maybe someone can review your router settings with you using teamviewer. (http://www.teamviewer.com)
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on December 13, 2011, 02:14:02 PM
Any status on this?
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on December 13, 2011, 02:20:43 PM
Still havent figured out the issue myself but I might have to try it with DNS relay on.

Afaik if the first Xbox is connected and then the 2nd Xbox comes online the 2nd one always gets booted off sooner or later but I can reconnect right away.  It might have to do with the router or my modem (Motorola SB5100) but I'm not sure which is the cause

Did any users have issues with an SB5100 with the DGL-4500?

Switched the Wireless mode back to Mixed G/N and the other xbox got booted off once wirelessly but so far so good no d/cs.  Only issue I seem to be having is connecting to a Party if its not my brother's xbox guess its the way the router prioritizes the network.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on December 15, 2011, 07:28:33 AM
No the router is working ok. Member what I said about getting a new cable modem and checking the cable internet lines for tv line splitters. Have you talked to you dad about that?

I use the same set up on the router for me and my roommate and we game just fine. Glad the wireless is working well.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 05, 2012, 07:17:37 PM
Well my dad just recently called Shaw about some channel packages and now we got some cheaper deals.  But they are sending us their Wifi Modem which I don't need but it was the SB6180 Modem right?

EDIT: the package they gave us comes with the Wifi modem and apparently we are going to get 50 Mbps but thats after the new modem is in place.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 06, 2012, 07:01:46 AM
THe SB 6180 is good too. The one I had mentioned was 6120 which isn't made any more however the follow on to it is the 6121. The 6180 is even better man. Kewl, need to get it if you can. You don't need the wireless that comes from the ISP though. Keep us posted.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 08, 2012, 12:10:15 PM
Well just got the new modem today and its included with everything such as the Coax cable, ethernet, power adapter etc.

Its a Cisco DPC3825 Docsis 3.0 Gateway but it won't work until I activate it through Shaw.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 08, 2012, 12:16:37 PM
I think that has a built in router...
It does have a DMZ so you could put the 4500 in the DMZ.
Makes having 2 routers on the line harder. Up to you.
The Cisco has QoS for gaming and such, might try the Cisco and see how gaming works. Might make the 4500 useless however you could turn the 4500 into and AP.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 08, 2012, 12:23:37 PM
Eh I think I'll give it a try w/o the 4500 and see how that goes.

Edit: Well I could put the 4500 near my own computer since I have a 3rd PC thats not even hooked up online but its ancient now lol
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 08, 2012, 12:25:56 PM
Keep us posted. Use the 4500 as a wireless AP if the Cisco works for gaming. You can use the port information in the XBL sticky on the Cisco QoS. Might look different but can be use the same.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 08, 2012, 12:27:12 PM
Looks like the Cisco router/modem has WPS according to the online manual I'm reading but I don't think I have any devices that support it so no point.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 08, 2012, 12:29:08 PM
Turn it off. Not sure if they are on the list of effected Mfrs of that vulneratbility.

Checked, Cisco isn't. Linksys is which is a division of Cisco.  ::)
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 08, 2012, 12:32:30 PM
I could ask Shaw if their SB modems support their new speed packages however, I'm guessing they might've made them only work with the Cisco modems.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 08, 2012, 12:34:49 PM
I would. You have 2 fully loaded routers, in all honesty, you only need one. All SB 6 series modems from Motorola are DOCSIS 3  supporting. I have 3 models my self for testing.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 09, 2012, 02:18:35 PM
Finally got the modem up and running seems like Shaw was busy for the day.  Anyways I'm trying to reconfigure the QoS stuff for xbox live/psn but seems like the Cisco setup offers me: Filter, Forwarding, Triggering and DMZ.

I'm assuming I would use the Triggering page since I have more than one xbox going online and I've also made sure that UpNp is enabled.

EDIT: this is going to be a bit more confusing than I thought the Xbox is reporting my NAT is now moderate instead of open.  It used to be strict but that was due to a port forwarding rule which I've removed.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 09, 2012, 02:58:38 PM
Try using the Triggering.

Might just put the 4500 in the DMZ of the modem too.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 09, 2012, 03:09:28 PM
Triggering actually made it worse lol

I fixed it by only using UpNp no NAT issues now.  I just gotta figure out what to do with my DGL-4500 maybe turn it into an AP like you suggested.

EDIT: Maybe UpNp isnt working like I thought the newer xbox is reporting a strict nat with UpNp on might do a test with Triggering again later on.  The ports should just be 53 and 3074 though for both protocols.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 09, 2012, 09:22:22 PM
If you only have one xbox, then use port forwarding.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 14, 2012, 10:48:32 AM
You get the 4500 set up as an AP?
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 16, 2012, 12:30:05 PM
Nope already having issues with the Cisco modem :D  Wireless seems to be dropping but I suspect its heat related and has nothing to do with the settings.  My dad was complaining to me about it lol  Called up Shaw and their tech suggested I do a factory reset which of course made it work again.  After that I reloaded my saved settings but the only thing I changed back was making the SSID broadcast.  Other WiFI settings were 2.4 Ghz on a wide 40 Mhz channel using Wireless CHannel 11 and the Wide Channel is using 7.

If this modem keeps dropping the wireless I think I'm just gonna ask if they can give us the SB6121 or the SB6180 since the 4500 had 0 issues after you tweaked it lol
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 16, 2012, 04:56:21 PM
OK, keep us posted. I have the SB6180 now. Great modem. My ISP doesn't bond 8, yet, so I guess I'll wait for that. I would ask your ISP what bond they support before getting the 80.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 16, 2012, 06:10:57 PM
You mean like the Channels? I think the Cisco DPC3825 only does 4 atm but I'm pretty sure they have one that can do 8.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 16, 2012, 06:27:26 PM
Ya. Channel bonding. Need to see if the ISP has this or supports 8 chl bonding.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 18, 2012, 10:46:19 PM
Ugh the modem is starting to piss me off having so many Xbox live issues atm at one point I had a strict nat, now its moderate and the other xbox is Open nat.  All I've done is add port 53 to port triggering in addition to 88 and 3074.

Not too happy with this modem atm I almost tempted to ask a Shaw tech to reconfigure the modem into bridged mode.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 19, 2012, 06:43:09 AM
Are there any other options like QoS? Ya, I would ask to get it bridged, if not then maybe a SB modem would be best.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 19, 2012, 02:06:04 PM
There is QoS but its just a simple check box for now I've disabled the port triggering and only left UpNp after that I power cycled the modem but I haven't tested it again today.  I think resetting the device via browser was a bad idea since it had to relock onto the 4 channels and that probably messed with my port settings.

I can let you take a look with teamviewer when I have some time today.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 19, 2012, 02:10:52 PM

Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 20, 2012, 08:18:17 PM
Yeah the modem itself is terrible at UpNp it fails to support more than 1 console lol  If they did it right both xboxes would show Open Nat but unfortunately one is always open and the other one is moderate (this one gets d/c'd).

Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 21, 2012, 11:00:47 AM
I would change out and get the SB 6121 modem man and use the 4500 as your router for gaming. You'll be happy.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 21, 2012, 11:44:54 PM
Well a couple of minutes later I got d/ced but after retesting the connection it seems to be okay so far.  Turning off the firewall on the DGL-4500 might be a consideration later on but right now no need.

Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 25, 2012, 08:25:20 AM
Its doing great had a chance to talk with a Tech in person today and I asked him about the modem itself and the broadband package they gave me.

So it seems like they won't offer me the SB series of modems cause they say it doesn't support the 50Mbps package (I'm calling BS cause the SB6100 series should be Docsis 3.0 compatible).  The only thing they can do for me is setup the modem as bridged mode that way I can use the DGL4500 but theres no need due to your crazy setup lol
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 25, 2012, 08:56:04 AM
That sure is interesting since all 3 of my 6 series modems work on my ISPs 50mb/2Mb package. LOL. Ya they just want you to use there modem and not there is all. The 6 Series modems do and will work on 50Mb speeds and beyond.

However since your set up is working now that we have the 4500 in the DMZ on the modem, you should be good man. Maybe later on, you could try a 6 series modem if you get your hands on one.

Enjoy for now.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 28, 2012, 04:17:54 PM
Well I'm guessing they might have some sort of a contract with Cisco so they can only use that modem for customers or something.

Lately the modem has been dropping my whole LAN/Wireless connections for no reason.  All the lights on the modem are still solid Green and the Lan ports are also blinking.  I wonder if it has to do with the DGL in the DMZ.  It really doesn't help me that logging isn't even allowed/enabled on the cisco modem but when all the computers are disconnected I can't even get into the Modem!  Afaik a 10 sec power cycle always works but this is kind of pissing me off now.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on January 28, 2012, 04:30:57 PM
Thats a shame. The DGL wouldn't be the cause of the modem dropping connections in the DMZ, theres no processing being done by the modem so shouldn't effect the modem.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on January 31, 2012, 02:29:06 AM
Did some research and according to this webpage:
http://troyfontaine.com/2011/11/cisco-dpc3825-from-shaw-clearer-answers/ (http://troyfontaine.com/2011/11/cisco-dpc3825-from-shaw-clearer-answers/)

The poster says there is something wrong with the firmware itself lol  The SPI Firewall is full of fail and I'm betting the DGL-4500's firewall works as intended.

He also mentions that I can set the modem into bridged mode w/o a firmware update from Shaw but I might try that later.

Post by: FurryNutz on January 31, 2012, 06:51:31 AM
Awesome info KKWL. This will come in handy for sure. I would definitely give that a try and get all your devices back on the 4500 if this seems to be a problem.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on February 06, 2012, 03:44:45 PM
Bah my connection keeps dropping its definitely signal interference but I can't figure out what.  My dad contacted shaw and they said when my connection drops and all the lights are On its a signal thing.

Right now all I've done is take our modem off Auto channel scan and put it on Channel 11 and I'll see how it goes for now.

Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on February 07, 2012, 12:35:34 AM
Just ran it on my mom's laptop and theres like 10 other wifi networks in the neighbourhood.

How should I go about switching channels then?  inSSIDer is saying I'm using channel 11+7 (where 7 is the wide channel).
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on February 07, 2012, 07:02:12 AM
They all on 2.4Ghz? Try to find a channel not being used. If there all on 2.4ghz, I would pick up 5Ghz wiFi adapters and use that radio. Just be aware that 5Ghz is best in line of sight or maybe one wall away. Try and go wired as much as you can. Keep us posted.
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on February 07, 2012, 12:34:50 PM
Yeah all of them are 2.4 GHz networks two of them are Open :P  I've moved my network to channel 3 as there is only 1 other network on that channel.  Theres at least 6-8 networks on channel 11 and about 2 on channel 6 (although this is probably the best if using non-wide channels).

I've moved mine to channel 3 due to this page on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels

I could use channel 5 or 9 but I'm not sure if my speed or signal would degrade, no one in my neighbour uses those.  A majority of them are on 1, 6 and 11
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: FurryNutz on February 07, 2012, 01:39:37 PM
Give the channels that are open a try.
Your area is starting to experience some wireless congestion.
I would think about making the jump to 5Ghz if you can.

Keep us posted.

Post by: KKWL on February 07, 2012, 02:34:17 PM
Trying channel 5+9 now and the RSSI is about 58-62 seems like my neighbour is about 72-82 ish.  Afaik this laptop isnt going at the full 300 Mbps its only 135 D:

Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c
Post by: KKWL on February 07, 2012, 10:21:28 PM
The wireless on the 4500 is disabled as I don't want it to broadcast atm unless it could be used as a repeater.

Seems like a majority of my neighbourhood uses channel 1 and 11 but my neighbour is using 6 and the signal is good but not excellent.  I almost wish I could use channel 12-14 instead literally nothing there :P
Title: Re: Xbox Live d/c

I'm disconnecting like mad with a new game I bought D: RE: ORC but I think its actually the game itself lol  I think sometime next week I'll be switching back to the 4500 as my router and putting my modem into a faux bridge mode.  Although the wireless connection is nice...

Turns out it might've been something on Xbox Live's end but I think the game itself needs a patch to fix the netcode.  Anyways I switched my DPC3825 to a fake bridge and now my DGL is the primary router, not sure if I want to use Wireless N only mode since I have a few G devices.  Only thing I have to re-do is Gaming rules for specific games and maybe make some parabolic reflectors for the DGL-4500 :D

Might use the 4500 on N mode and find you a cheap DAP 1360 or 1522 or even a 615 or some router that you can turn in to an AP for G mode.  ::) Keep us posted.

Those D-Link DAP routers look pretty nice, I'm considering to get one later on and it will probably be the latest one I saw at Best Buy.

Something is up with my router not sure whats going on but both of my Xboxes are not connecting to Xbox Live unless this is on Microsoft's end.  Both tests go through fine on Network and Internet but then it fails at the Xbox LIVE test.

Figure I'd update this turns out that d/c issue was on Microsoft's end lol  In any case my router has been up for almost a month! (27 days so far :D)  Only issue I sometimes have is video streams not buffering too well on wired or wireless.  Not sure which setting I should play with on the router except for the MCS stuff for wireless but its currently on auto.

Good to hear that it's an MS issue.

How are you streaming? console? PC?
Where are you streaming from? service or web site?

Mainly PC and on youtube.  I haven't tested streaming on the xbox lately but my brother has been watching anime on Crackle on his xbox, zero issues there but I guess its only youtube that it happens.

Have seen many issues with youtube. I watched Vexille last night on my xbox connected at 5Ghz to the 4500 in AP mode which is wired to a DIR-645. No issues seen.
