So for online games, Streamyx gives better service depending on the ipaddress that we are on. Is that apparent for games played on xbox live as well? Do most of you guys connect the modem directly to the xbox or PC?

*sigh*

ALL ABOUT XBOX LIVE HERE

Doesnt really answer any of my questions

As long your ping to tmnet is ok (via command prompt) , and the NAT is open , you'll be no problem playing with Malaysian . Maybe Japanese and Singaporean as well .

it depends really. obviously you'll get better connection with closer players like in singapore, HK or japan. but so far, i've played with a number of american hosts and the connection was still good.

so far, UKs connection kinda lags a lot.

and i'm connecting my modem to a switch, with 2 other pcs connected as well. sometimes my pcs, and xbox will use the connection simultaneously, but still smooth online play.

Don't forget those Aussies.

+ korean also...
polaying gear with them also fun wehhh

my

router - wireless port - pc & 360

wow......

he's good right...

mine using ICS(shared connection) . ...u set ur PC to 192.168.0.1 and in ur dashboard, set IP manually and set gateway to 192.168.0.1 ...(don forget also to set ur DNS )...my modem is Aztech DSL 600ER...so far no problem at all playing Halo 3 on XBL... but, i'm using my kondo's ISP, so not sure for Streamyx.

i cant control.. i must get an xbox360 tmr for the orange box and halo!

I can ping perfectly ... but my NAT is always moderate, sometimes if im lucky .. i will get open.

even after port forwarding the necessary ports, my NAT is only moderate. In the end, i just DMZ my box and my NAT is now always open.

Whats DMZ ? can teach me how to use it pls

my NAT is always closed its so sad = (

Refer to your modem manual (you'll find the DMZ tab in your modems settings page), practically it opens up all ports. If you DMZ your pc ip you're more likely to say hello to hackers.

some router lets you set open DMC to a certain IP~

so my Xbox 360 is open DMC... Maybe sooner or later Hackers starts to hack on each xbox360

djinn, how bout ur place? u hv multiple 360s behind a single router... so only 1 box has "Open NAT"? does enabling uPNP on the router allow more than 1 box to have "Open NAT" ?

yeaa..he is really good...lol....

nope, to enable all four xbox 360 or more.. I just make the main ip (which is known as 192.168.1.1) as open nat~ so all xbox 360 is running on open nat.

UPNP also can be done, but you have you key in the ip from your xbox 360 la~

some modem doesn't allow multiply "Open NAT" and I have no idea why they want to do that.

I use an adsl gateway (modem+router) connected to my pc and to the xbox separately. Both pc and xbox have static ip and ports forwarded for whatever.

If you forward your ports properly, you'll have open NAT. I have no problems playing games with gamers from Japan, Indonesia, HK, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia or even US. Of course, to do this gotta stop all connections on the pc. Halo 3 seems to work great with gamers from anywhere. GoW though, is a little picky. Some games are lagged to hell with users from US,etc.

well at least halo 3 you can still look for "good connection" features turn on if you want to look a good match..

I'm hoping epic will do these in thier gears of war 2

thier rank match system is freaking lousy

Edit: remembered what the problem was. Billing address.
