Hello award ward,

To get a wireless internet connection for Xbox live, you will need a high-speed Internet connection such as cable or DSL and a router, gateway, or wireless access point (WAP) that is compatible
with Xbox live. If your XBOX360 console is first generation, you will also need a Xbox 360 wireless networking adapter. If you are using a wired connection, you will need a network cable. Plug the network cable into your router and the other end into your Xbox 360. On your Xbox 360 console, navigate to "MY XBOX" and then select "system settings" Next select "Network settings" and then select "Test Xbox Live connection" Select YES when the prompt appears asking you to update your software. After you become connected, there are two choices: Free membership of Gold membership. Once you are connected, navigate back to "My XBOX" and select your avatar and then select "Join Xbox Live" If you need any more help feel free to contact me. Thank you for using Fixya

only way i solved it was to go into advanced configuration and turn off firewall when i want to use it for gaming. specifically black ops.

If there is a firewall or a router between the Xbox console and the networking hardware, and the Xbox LIVE test reports a NAT problem, you may have to make configuration changes to enable communication on the specific network ports that are required by Xbox LIVE. This will not guarantee that this will give you an "open" NAT status, but it may help.

If you are using an Xbox LIVE-compatible or Windows Vista-compatible device with the correct firmware installed, you do not have to manually open any ports. For a device to gain "compatible" status, the device and the firmware must perform specific functions with Xbox LIVE. These functions include (but are not limited to) setting NAT to "Open" and having the ability to connect multiple consoles to a single router. For more information about how to find out if your networking hardware is compatible with Xbox LIVE, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 944293 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/944293/ ) How to find out if your networking hardware is compatible with the Xbox LIVE Service If your device is not on the compatible list, you can try opening the following ports:

• TCP 80
• UDP 88
• UDP 3074
• TCP 3074
• UDP 53
• TCP 53

For information about how to configure port settings on a firewall, a router, or a gateway, please see the documentation that was included with that device or contact your network administrator or local technical support for help. You can also check the xbox.com official forums to see if other users have the same problem.

If you use a Windows Vista-certified or Xbox LIVE-certified device and the NAT status in the Network Status area of the Dashboard is "moderate" or "strict," verify that the device has the current firmware. For information about Xbox LIVE-certified devices, such as the correct firmware version for the device, please visit the following Xbox Web site: http://winqual.microsoft.com/HCL/ProductList.aspx?m=v&cid=712&g=d

Suggestion: <b>MTU Error</b>

This issue occurs if your router or the gateway is incompatible with Xbox Live, or if your router or the gateway has an incorrect MTU setting. Note: Xbox Live requires a minimum MTU setting of 1364. We recommend that you try out the steps shown below.

Things to try:
1. Ensure that you have properly setup your connection to Live by using the Connectivity Wizard http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/connecttolive/xbox360/connectionmethods/webconnectivitywizard.htm
2. Visit the following Web site to determine whether you have the correct firmware version that has been certified as compatible: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/connect/routerlanding.htm
3. See the router or gateway instruction manual for information about how to change the MTU setting to 1364, to do this, or to determine whether your router supports this feature, see the router support documentation or contact support for your router device.
4. If you share a connection with a router and a modem, try a direct connection without the router.

MTU stands for "Maximum Transmission Connection". Some routers and/or network gateways are incompatible with Xbox LIVE, while others may be compatible but merely need to have a setting changed. If you compare your router to the list of routers at the following web address, you can confirm whether or not your hardware has been confirmed as compatible with Xbox LIVE by Microsoft:

http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/connecttolive/xbox360/homenetworking/equipment.htm

Whether or not your hardware is listed as compatible, it would still be a good idea to check your instruction manual for the hardware you are using and see how (if possible) to change the MTU settings. Microsoft suggests that the MTU setting should be 1364. Using untested hardware or hardware not listed as compatible may still work, however, future updates to LIVE may suddenly make your hardware incompatible, as updates to LIVE and the Xbox console are made to work with the specifications of tested and listed compatible routers and gateways.
