How can me and my friend both play terraria online multiplayer without it, saying, unable...

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

Please make sure that you and your friend's NAT Type is set to "OPEN". To check, please follow the steps below:

Settings > General > Network Settings > Test NAT Type.

If one of you is not OPEN, please perform an extended power cycle and reset the network hardware by following the steps below:

"1. Unplug the power cable from the back of the router, modem, or gateway for 5 minutes. If you have a router and a modem, unplug the power cable from both devices.

2. Press and hold the Xbox button on your console for 10 seconds or until it turns off then wait for 2 minutes before turning it on again.

3. After 5 minutes, plug the modem or gateway in first, and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

4. If you are using a router, plug in the router and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state."

Can I ask you a question ?

Not long after posting this question I am now unable to go online and play Black ops or to see my friends gaming avatars.

My loading screen for for multiplayer on black ops locks up or just spins without loading.

I am able to play other games in multiplayer though.

Thank you for the reply. So on my Home Xbox, any user is able to use multiplayer online. On the non-Home Xboxes, even if we are both signed on to the console (our profiles are both signed in), only my son can play multiplayer online, and I am unable to. Is that correct? I get confused since both of us can be signed in at the same time on all of our consoles.

Is there a way for us to be able to have him have the benefit of playing available games on his PC and me being able to Call of Duty online multiplayer on all my Xbox’s.?

Thanks for your help.

Xbox Live Gold is ONLY required for playing online Multiplayer, participating in parties and getting and playing the free Games with Gold games.

If you purchased a game digitally, you can download that without a Gold membership. You'll just be unable to play the online multiplayer part (if the game has online Multiplayer).

Ya this makes me pretty upset, my friends and I really really like Terraria and it's really aggravating to play the game without straining my eyes; I hope they fix this soon it's a major disappointment.
