I'm doing my first time connection to xbox live and I'm facing DNS failure. I'm using wired connection through Streamyx modem. Could anyone pls help me on this?
The xbox diagnostic passed on Network adapter and IP address but failed on DNS.

I also notice that in Network Settings we can manually key in the DNS number. Can it be done that way?

Hi string fellow....

Thanks for your feedback. I've tried manually key in the DNS number given just now. Still won't work.
Already reset and the xbox and modem, still the same...
Haizz....now i'm really pissed off....

Is there a way to conform the DNS number inside the modem?

Another things, does anyone ever try using openDNS on their Xbox360?

Hi All...

Thanks again for the feedback...

I've tried put the xbox DNS at auto mode, result still the same.
My connection is direct from modem using cable. Still don't have router or wifi.

After I ran xbox diagnostic test, the result as below:

IP Add: 192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1

As for the DNS setting, regardless if i put it at auto detect or manual keyin streamyx DNS number provided by stringfellow above, the result still the failed.

As for port forward and DMZ, haven't tried yet coz noob about it. The settings is done on PC or xbox?

How to check the DNS# if it is hardcoded in the modem?

Its normal streamyx modem(Telekom punya) only. Model ZTE ZXDSL 831.

Since I'm just using normal modem without router...I don't think I would be able to play around with DMZ settings....

UGPM....

To silencer...

Thanks again for your help....finally I've seen the sunshine.....

Want to ask about Play Asia point topup and gold membership renew, does anyone buying from them? Is there any problem with it?

The price kinda cheap.

Asian version you meant for games or gold membership card?

Need some help here...

I just bought a router linksys wrt45g to connect my laptop wireless and wired for xbox360. I've successfully connected my laptop thru wireless, however I could not get my xbox 360 connected thru wired. During xbox live test connection, my IP test failed.

As for router settings I've tried using DHCP and PPPoE, both setting got connected to my laptop but Xbox 360 still could not recognized the IP Add...

I've tried manually key in the IP add into xbox also did not work. Could some one pls help me.
