  1. Does X-box need a firewall for net play?


    Hello.

    Give me, please, an advise am I need to protect the password of my internet account while playing X-box on-line? E.g. the PC has firewall against troyan spies, and what about X-box? Could smb. steal my password for Wi-Fi router through internet connection of
    X-box? Thank you for advance.

    :)

  2. failed connection to live,intermittent problem.

    Have you tried resetting your router to factory defaults? Theres usually a button somewhere that needs to be held in or a tiny button that needs to be pushed in with something small (a pen nib for example) it may be something as simple as a router firewall
    issue. Another thing worth trying is putting your x box outside the routers firewall (into the routers DMZ) theres plenty of how to's on the net for this

  3. Guess Player on X-Box Live?

    Is there a way i can have a quess player play on my x-box live (Modern Warfare) with me on the same x-box?, playing the split screen together, my daughter has her name in my x-box as well for her games but can't play together on on x-box live or does she
    need her own x-box? i can only play on my name to play the game.

    i'm new to the x-box live stuff.

    Thanks

    Ac adapter keeps overheating on my s console

    I bought the x-box 1 year and 4 days ago. Does x-box cover it with their warranty or do I need to spend 30$?

    GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas no longer play on my 360 Elite

    Mister Mascot,

    My console is always connected to the net, as I said above,none of the discs are damaged, the HD is always on the console unless I'm trying to see if it is causing a problem. I have game saves from all those discs except GTA 3 because I deleted it to see
    if that might be causing the problem, it still plays all my 360 format games but will no longer boot up the ones from the original X Box format. X Box Live does not prompt me to install any updates.
