linksbox and internet prob
 

hey everybody. i am usin unleashx, and i want to be able to connect to the iternet with it directly from a modem. i use dsl by verizon. how do i find which ip address i tell the xbox to connect to, and where in unleashx do i put pppoe settings(user\pass), or does it automatically use the pppoe settings i use for live? also, i want to be able to maintain a conection after leaving the dash so i can run programs online, mainly, the web browser linksboks.

well, if it is directly connected to the modem, set the ip to autodetect. The IP should be set up on the xbox automatically. Xbox live should also be set to "auto-detect". Username and pass are xbox/xbox by default.

ya well, its on auto detect, and it says "unable to retrieve file:HTTP STATUS 10060" xbox live works fine whenever its on autodetect though... another thing: the user and pass for my isp are NOt xbox\xbox, and even xbox live wont connect if if i dont give it the right user\pass. maybe if i put the isp user\pass in the ftp settings it will use it for http as well?

I am a bit confused. I mean when you ftp to your xbox, the username and pass are xbox/xbox. I though dsl was a constant connection, you need a username and pass to connect online with your PC?

When you leave the dash, the connection is lost. The next program you use has to connect again.

exactly. with the type of dsl i have, i need a user\pass to connect. its kinda weird lol i get 200-300KBps downstream and about 40-50KBps upstream from a normal phone line lol (only bad thing is u have to connect)

hmm, is there a username and pass option for xbox live? I never really noticed. I have no idea whether you can enter in a user/pass to connect online for any xbox dashboard, just to connect to your xbox.

ya there is a user\pass option for live. my xbox wont connect to live if they arent filled in. its under PPPoE settings.and ive been looking all over for a tut, but i cant find one.

would it be cool if i post my unleash x config.xml file here, and maybe someone familiar with unleashx could tell me what im doin wrong?

sure

there and btw there are the correct amount of spaces between the < things and the left side but it took them out when i pasted it in.

and btw quall, dsl IS a constant connection, but because if you have a dsl modem you can connect from ALMOST any normal old phone jack in the usa, it needs a user\pass to make sure someone didnt just buy the modem off ebay or something. once you connected its a preety decent speed tho,and you can talk on the phone. plus its only ten bucks more than dial up, and it uses the msn premium browser and its compatoble with live, ive never had lag issues on live.
