    Can't connect to friends. Friends can not connect to me.


    Good evening,

    Up until last week I was able to play on live with zero restrictions now I am having an issue where I can not connect to friends in game, or at the Xbox 360 dashboard.

    IE: they can not join my game in progress, I can not join their game in progress, I can not start a party, I can not start a chat, etc.

    I can play on Xbox live just by connecting through the game lobby (COD: Ghosts in this case).

    Prior to this issue I had not changed any settings on the router.

    Things I have/have tried:

    • Resetting router to default settings.
    • Using a different router with DD-WRT installed.
    • I have an open nat.
    • I have forwarded ports.
    • I have the Xbox 360 in a DMZ.
    • I have disabled all firewall components.
    • I've assigned a static IP address.
    • Formatting the xbox HDD/Clearing system cache.
    • UpnP is enabled.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    It can be your internet as well so you can apply the same suggestion and contact your ISP

    Tell you friend to contact his ISP and make sure that his net connection can support IPV6

    I'm having the same problem also. My neighbor and I can't play together in a party unless we have another friend host the party and invite us both. Doesn't matter what game we are playing. We can send messages. I have a wireless connection through Comcast
    and he has a connection through DirectTv. Both use different routers.

    If your friend is trying to host the game that might be the issue you should try to host the game your self. If that doesn't work I will leave a link for you to share with your friend. It will show you how to change your NAT type.

    Here is a link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOEZUFeO-PA&t=2s

    Hope this helps, Happy Gaming!!!

    I bet it's something to do with one of ya'lls NAT settings. Check to make sure that NATs are open on both ends, and all should be good.

    Thanks and Happy Gaming!

    well?
