Actiontec ActionTec M1000: ​my digital bought games not working

www.pcwintech.com/screenshots-actiontec-gt724wg-actiontec-firmware

The 169.254 series address is chosen at random when the Actiontec gateway is not assigning an IP address.... and it won't connect to the Actiontec under those circumstances when DHCP fails to work (even though, as you said, it is turned on).



A sequential power cycle is the first step here, and is NOT a complete hard reset:

1) turn off the Xbox then

2) unplug power from the Actiontec.

3) Wait at least 30 secs then replug the Actiontec power.

5) Wait 'til the light on the front of the Actiontec which says ONLINE, READY, or DSL is on solid (not flashing), then turn on the Xbox.



If the problem persists, please let us know so we may work on this further.

Hey there Jrocker23! Xbox360italy's link is definitely helpful for connection issues! If you continue to have trouble though you may want to forward your ports (http://support.xbox.com/xbox-live/connecting/network-ports-used-xbox-live) according to the Actiontec
site:



Will my Xbox work with the Actiontec Modem or Router?

Yes, Actiontec Modems and Routers are compatible with the Xbox. However, it may be necessary to forward the ports used by the Xbox, in the Actiontec Modem or Router. Without Port Forwarding, the Xbox Connection Test may report a "NAT" rating of "STRICT"
or "MODERATE", rather than "OPEN".

You can't ask for handouts or free stuff at the forums, also don't post personal data. Read the forum's rules before you post!

The Linksys is connected to the Actiontec, yes. And I believe the Actiontec's routing function is disabled, since I use the Linksys to change the network settings
