Hey!
I've been trying recently to connect my Xbox 360 to the Internet.
Since my room has only one ethernet port used by the computer, I thought that making the computer server Internet to the Xbox would be a great idea.
Here's the setup I've tried:
(Home router) -(Ethernet cable)> Windows 10 PC - (USB cable)> USB to ethernet adapter -(Ethernet cable)> Xbox 360
I changed the proper settings in Control Panel to share the connection that the computer receives with the USB to ethernet adapter assisted by the following guide:
http://support.xbox.com/xbox-360/networking/win-computer
(I followed the Internect connection sharing part, not bridging)
I restored the Xbox networking settings to default and tested the connection - And it worked! I can access the internet through my Xbox 360.
But here's the catch - I tried to connect to the online servers of the new Guitar Hero live game, and it constanly refuses to let me in. It claims that there's something wrong with the servers. Meaning, it has some trouble connecting to the internet (it does NOT work..) .
To actually make sure that there was nothing wrong with the servers I changed my setup and got rid of the computer in the middle:
(Home router) -(Ethernet. cable)> Xbox 360
Then I tried to access the game's server - and it finally let me in!
So here's why I'm clueless -
On one hand, the Xbox dashboard is certain that I have a fully operational Internet connection, and indeed I've successfully connected to all the features of Xbox Live.
On the other hand, Guitar hero's servers are unreachable (?) when using this sort of setup.
What could be causing this?
Thank you so much!
