good afternoon

is your xbox locked?

already tried these options?

Solution 1: Reset the networking hardware

Turn off your Xbox 360 console and network hardware (for example, your modem and router).

Wait 30 seconds.

Turn on the modem and wait for it to come back online (one minute).

Turn on the next hardware (eg a router) and wait another minute.

Repeat step 4 for each additional networking hardware.

Turn on the console, go to My Xbox and select System Settings.

Select Network Settings.

Select WiredNet or the name of the wireless network if prompted to do so.

Select Test Xbox LIVE Connection.

If you get the same MTU error, try the next solution.

Solution 2 (wireless only): Improve wireless signal

If you're connecting to Xbox LIVE using a wireless connection, the MTU error might be due to a weak wireless signal.

Check if the wireless signal strength needs to increase. See how:

On the Xbox 360 console, go to My Xbox and select System Settings.

Select Network Settings.

Select WiredNet or the name of the wireless network if prompted to do so.

Select Test Xbox LIVE Connection.

If the signal strength is one or two bars, try increasing it.

Wireless signal strength in one or two bars

Follow these tips to increase wireless signal strength:

Remove the router or gateway from the floor and walls and metal objects (such as metal file cabinets).

Minimize obstructions in the straight path between your Xbox 360 console and your wireless router or gateway.

Reduce the distance between the console and the wireless router or gateway. Ideally, networking hardware is located near the center of your home.

Change the position of the antenna on the Xbox 360 Wireless Networking Adapter (external adapter only).

Turn off wireless devices. If the router uses the 2.4 gigahertz (GHz) band, try turning off wireless devices such as 2.4GHz cordless phones and Bluetooth devices.

Try changing the wireless channel. Wireless routers and gateways can broadcast on different channels, and one channel may be clearer than another. See your hardware documentation for help changing wireless channels.

Add a wireless repeater to extend your wireless network range. You can increase signal strength by placing a wireless repeater midway between the router and the console.

Switch wireless signal bands. If you have a dual-band router and an external wireless adapter, try switching the router to a wireless protocol that transmits in the 5GHz band (wireless A or N protocol). See your hardware documentation for help changing the wireless protocol.

Add an Xbox 360 Wireless N Networking Adapter (Xbox 360 S console). If the wireless router is not near the console, an Xbox 360 Wireless N Networking Adapter may improve signal strength. When you connect a wireless network adapter to an Xbox 360 S console, the console will automatically use the wireless adapter instead of the built-in Wi-Fi.

If you get the same MTU error, try the next solution.

Solution 3: Simplify Setup

The router or gateway may be having difficulty sharing an Internet connection. To find out if this is true, try simplifying the configuration.

Do one of the following:

If you have a wired connection: Temporarily disconnect everything but the modem cable and Xbox 360 console cable from the router.

If you have a wireless connection: Temporarily turn off everything connected to the wireless network except your Xbox 360 console.

Test your Xbox LIVE connection:

On the console, go to My Xbox and select System Settings.

Select Network Settings.

Select WiredNet or the name of the wireless network (if prompted to do so).

Select Test Xbox LIVE Connection.

If you don't get an MTU error message after simplifying the configuration, the router might be having difficulty managing multiple connections. To try to solve the problem, try the next solution.

Solution 4: Check the MTU setting

Xbox LIVE requires a minimum MTU setting of 1364. Make sure your router or gateway has an MTU setting of 1364 or higher. To do this, log into the router or gateway and check the MTU setting. See the documentation provided with your router or gateway for information on how to make this change.

If you change the MTU setting on your networking hardware, reset it and retest your Xbox LIVE connection.

If the MTU setting on your router or gateway is 1364 or higher, try the next solution.

Solution 5: Open network ports

The Xbox 360 console uses network ports to communicate with Xbox LIVE servers. if you are

I tried disconnecting and reconnecting, but I still get the same "Connection Failed: Connection to the server was lost. Exiting to main menu." message. Is this problem due to an update by the Minecraft people? I just tried out Turbo Thunder and it works.
It seems like only Minecraft is affected.

... to be clear, the prob I'm having is the "connection failed exiting to main menu" messgae whenever I try to load my world.

Yes I have. My Xbox one automatically asks me everytime to download my profile once it fails on the the getting xbox 360 info. But once it tries to download by connecting to xbox live it then fails. Saying the internet isn't working. It is. But I regardless
I double check it to be sure.

Honestly this is too just stressful of an ordeal to be about. But im gonnat try and redownload my 360 profile on the 360 itself. If that doesn't work I give up.

Sorry for the last response. I tried what you said. Everything seems to be good when I test my connection. I then did what you said. After that, I tested my connection and everything is still green. I then joined a minigame and I'm still getting the same error. "Connection failed. Connection to the server was lost. Exiting to the main menu."
