VPN /Proxy re-direct on MW3 on Xbox360?

George Bernius · Feb 23, 2019

Hi all,
I recently started seeing more modders and hijackers ( Mr. Invisible ) on MW3.

Now, when I start MW3, I get logged out of XBOX-Live, and have to re-sign-in once multiplayer is selected.

When I return to the Home page, I frequently have to re-sign-in again.

Also, the number of 'available games' in the lobby has gone from 20-100, to hundreds and thousands of 'available' games.

And now I drop into "Superman" games, where you can jump onto the roofs.

A) Did I get hacked?

B) is there a wash/wipe/update to remove the proxy re-direct?

Thanks from the Sp00ndom.

Try performing a hard reset EXACTLY like this. Hold the power button on the console for 8 seconds or until the power shuts down completely. Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes. Plug the power cord back in and restart
the console.

Hi, and thanks for reaching out. My name is Miguel O., hope to help you today!

Xbox does not support any class of VPN or proxy the only way to do it is by using a router, in case you are looking to use a VPN for security reasons

I must say that using a VPN trying to circumvent regional content restrictions is against the Community Standards for Xbox.

I hope that answers your question!

I was just gonna use it for security reasons, but I suppose that's a Ouch for Xbox since Playstation and Nintendo offers it. Thanks for the answer

NanoTechSoldier, this is, in my opinion, not correct. A VPN masks your IP. You are thinking of a Proxy Server, which doesn't always conceal your originating IP address. A proxy has all the routing taking place between you and the proxy open and available
to anyone looking, whereas a VPN, by definition, is private. Xbox Live would not care where you route the traffic after it hits the public facing address of the VPN connection.

Do you use any proxy or VPN on your network?
