XBOX 360 WPA or WPA2 WRT160N questions

Hello. I'm going to buy a wireless adapter for my Xbox 360 and I have a few questions.

The Xbox 360 works with WPA2? If not and I turn it on for the WPA, I have to reset all my devices (1 laptop, 1 office, 1 Wii) with a new security code?

Yes, you need to change all settings match those of your router.

  • Xbox 360 slim connect to the interface on WRT160N wireless - g

    Hello:

    I bought a new Xbox 360 Slim a month ago. Before that, in anticipation of the console to my new wireless capabilities I advanced and changed my old WRT54G (1.1) for a wireless-N router WRT160N allowed.

    When I plugged the console for the first time it was a nightmare to configure wireless settings... It wouldn't connect, in every possible way... And when I finally made a connection that he deleted just after 1 hour (I think it had something to do with the renewal of WPA key, if you must ask) I've updated the firmware and all was good again. BUT! It only connects to wireless-G... I have the router located on 'Mix', so she accepts my notebooks 802.11 G and my 360 Wireless N, but just, it detects the router mode G and connects like that...

    I tried EVERYTHING, but nothing works.

    It connects fine, I even get open NAT on the console and play online with no apparent problems, but I need Wireless N, because the router and 360 are too separate, and the signal is becoming weak. Also I usually stream 1080 p content so I need more bandwidth.

    I tried setting that "only wireless n" router, but then the console just does not connect, says he "can't connect to the wireless hardware.

    I could not test any hardware wireless-N, so I don't really know if it's the fault of the router, the console or is that just, they are not compatible...

    Any tips?

    Can't... My only two options are 'automatic' or 'only 20 Mhz'... :/ I can only change the channel on 20 Mhz. But thanks for the tip.

    EDIT:

    OMG, I can't believe it... It is NOT a malfunction N wireless network... This has to do with security... I had my personal WPA authentication method... According to joint works like a charm and everything connects, but the Xbox connect just the wireless G. Under Wireless-N only, it just does not connect. But I tried to disable security, and he comes to connect n wireless!

    Now, I switched to WPA2 Personal... it connects perfectly on Wireless N even if I set the 'Mixed' router and broadband radio and the way to the car.

    My problem is solved, however, I got to know is always:

    Why he doesn't connect WPA enabled?

  • Xbox 360 questions (Modern Warefare 2) online

    Hello, I request assistance with my Xbox 360 and Windows 7 online game, I would ask on Xbox.com, but they may not appear too willing to help.  Anyway, I recently had the home edition of Windows Vista, and my online game has worked very well.  I then upgraded to Windows 7 and everything went downhill.  After playing MW2 (Modern Warfare 2), I click on finding a match, it works generally the first few times, then after I exit a game, he finds no match.  Sometimes, it works just after that I have first turn on my Xbox!  Sometimes a friend can't join my games, or the Xbox Live party!  I have forwarded ports 53, 80, 88, 3074' on the port protocol.  My NAT type is (open) and I have my size MTU to 1365.  I did everything that I've seen other people say.  It is that I did not did nothing that everyone says to do.  I sent my Xbox IP port, have all the correct information, the function "Test Xbox Live connection" my Xbox Live is "on" no NAT problem.  I have my connection to the Local network and my connection Wireless Bridge.  I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate.  I tried to restart my router and restore to the factory settings.  If there is anything that I did not, please tell me.  I also uPnP 'Active '.

    Thanks in advance

  • Microsoft Xbox 360 Controller For Windows (wired connection) Hardware questions

    Hello, I bought the controller the year last of the Thailand, and I currently live in Bangladesh. It was greater at all times and served me well until today, it started acting weird, all of a sudden.
    It is not a problem of driver for it, but it must be done with the controller itself. See, when the wire is same slightly shifted, the controller disconnects. It's probably something wrong with the wire, correct? But, what do I do now? I can't play anything or use the controller. It works, but the part of the wire where it connects to the controller seems very fragile and disconnects to the slightest budge. Please, any help is appreciated! :(

  • Xbox 360 controller for windows question

    Im looking forward to buying the windows xbox 360 wireless controller. I would like to know what microsoft and other games is compatible with the pad at the moment. IM in the current world of warcraft and halo so far. I want to know if its worth buying.

    my pc is
    Quad Core AMD phenom x 4
    6 GB of ram
    640 GB hd
    Windows vista 64-bit

    Hello AxeMankd,

    I have the 360 controller and it works with all the games that are supported controls for controllers.  Most recent games have even profiles of controller for the 360 controller.  The only game that I wasn't able to use it with was the Call of Duty 4, but who were able to evolve with an update on the side of the games.  There has been some problems with some games and wireless controller but not the wired version.  It was a driver problem which is probably not a factor now.  I have not tested version wireless with my PC because I have not bought the wireless PC part, but I don't have two types of controller.

    Happy fragging I have a simple philosophy: just assume everyone is a piece of _ and then be pleasantly surprised if you find someone who is not.

  • Xbox 360 questions

    Hi I have a few problems to access the media through the xbox 360 in the import directory.

    Installation program:

    Xbox 360 connected to the router via wifi

    mnh410 connected to the router via cat-5e

    Use:

    "My Xbox-> picture library-> Mediahub: PVConnect->Folder->computerName->C->Users->userName->Pictures->"No images found.

    If I navigate on to the same directory of my computer that I can clearly see that computerName\C\Users\userName\Pictures is filled with pictures.

    However, if I try the following:

    My Xbox-> picture library-> Mediahub: PVConnect-> Date-> 2008 then pictures see the place as expected.

    There seems to be a problem with deeply nested directories and it affects videos, images and music.  As an experiment I tried to copy the media to \\mediahub\pictures, \\mediahub\video and \\mediahub\music.  The xbox is able to access files in these directories.

    Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    It seems that the Xbox 360 has a limit of five directories that it can display... Once you've spent that it won't work. The same thing for the PS3. It has a limit of 6 directories. In the short term, you will need to manually organize your files in support of the limit. Longer term, we will have to watch how import us your media and what is the most effective way to do it. We also tried other devices of type DMA and had no problems with these.

  • Satellite A300-1OM - Media sharing with XBox 360

    I'll have some real problems share my media with my Xbox 360 using my home wireless network.

    I used to connect my 360 to the internet via internet sharing with my laptop connected via Ethernet. I now borrow a wireless adapter for the 360 that still lets connect me to the internet on the 360, but I can no longer access my portable music library or find a PC Windows Media Centre when searching for the network on my 360.

    My laptop is running Windows 7 64 bit. When I display 'network' appears from my own laptop, my second laptop computer connected to the network is also shown, and the 360 is also indicated in the devices section of media. Under 'Options of Streaming Media' my 360 is also listed and given full access to my portable media.

    When my laptop is connected directly to my 360 via Ethernet the music library and video library works great, like Windows Media Center.

    Anyone know of any solution to this problem? I guess it will just be a problem with some settings on my laptop as opposed to a problem with my Xbox. Any advice much appreciated!

    Hey bradleyheap,

    To be honest it is very difficult to answer your question. In my opinion, you should ask question biotechnology in Xbox forum o somewhere else. I think that it is not related to Toshiba

    Anyway, if everything works with the LAN cable, you should check the firewall options. Try turning off the Windows Firewall and update the driver WLAN from your laptop.

    Sorry, but everything that s what I can say at the moment.

  • Qosmio G20-139: use the laptop screen to play on the Xbox 360

    Hi I have a question about the monitor function with the G20-139,

    I have an xbox 360 and would like to know if there is a way to use laptops screen to play on the 360 in high definition or composite mode using the monitor function. With the laptop came a composite cable at one end and a sort of headphone 3.5 mm at the other.

    I read the manual about the case and it does not work.

    Any help would be appreciated thanks

    Hello

    The port monitor - where you can connect with the composite cable can be used to display video from your digital camcorder, video game or VCR on the internal LCD screen. It can be used as a line-in port to allow the connection of a stereo device for audio input.

    In my opinion, you also need this cable to connect the Xbox to the Qosmio with composite cable plug-in software component.
    http://www.madcatz.com/default.asp?page=257&CategoryImg=Xbox_360_Cables

    Then to commence the Qosmio with the Monitor-in button that starts the Qosmio player.

    Good bye

  • Is it possible to connect an Xbox 360 console to a HP TouchSmart 520-1030?

    I got this HP TouchSmart for over 2 years. This question comes to mind. Can you connect an Xbox 360 to a HP TouchSmart 520-1030? I looked and looked and found nothing useful on the web.

    Specifications are: HP TouchSmart 520-1030
    Intel Core i3-2120
    4 GB of ram

    No HDMI

    Hello again ScreenNameHere,

    Thank you for responding to my message asking for additional information. The only way I can see to connect your HP TouchSmart 520-1030 Desktop PC would be the use of a USB HDMI adapter. I am also including the IDT High Definition Audio Driver Update for your computer, the USB connection will not have the same sound quality and you want to make sure that you have up-to-date drivers to get the best sound, you can leave the connection.

    Please re-post with the results of this post. Thank you for bringing This problem on the HP Forums. Enjoy your day!
