Help with runing two Xbox 360's, in one house? - Blu-ray Forum

snowball_iv · 07-04-2009, 05:16 PM

Well me and my roommate both have a 360 and both have our own accounts, but when we try to play in the same game on call of duty 4 or world at war. We have connection issues sometimes. Sometimes we both get in the game but usaully we have a error or one gets kicked out of the game.

I was just seeing if anyone can help me? we have cable internet thru mediacom, then a belkin wireless router hooked to that. We have two xbox hooked thru ethernet cords and two laptop hooked up to wireless internet. Any help would be awesome.

Is uPnP turned on?

also knowing what kind of Internet speed you have would help alot also it might be that your connection can't be split that much and it just is kicking a person when it is to overworked.

What is uPnP? I don't know to much when it comes to computers.

And the system link won't help cuz we are wanting to play on xbox live. I will look into port forwarding. Thanks everyone.

Our speed is 54.0 Mbps

ok so 2 360's = you have a router
set each 360 to have a different static IP address
plus you probaly have to open up some ports
www.portforward.com
find your router & click xbox live

i HAD 2 360s (one for me & one for my son) about 8 months ago with NO PROBLEMS

ip address & opening the ports - all you have to do

thank me later by sending me a pack of smokes (marlboro menthols).....the price is driving me to quit...lol
