Xbox Live connection issues with Eircom and Netopia
Do you face any issue with your Xbox Live connection?
Is your internet service provider Eircom?
Are you using a Netopia router or modem?
You might face some issues with Xbox Live connection when your internet service provider is Eircom and your router or modem is a Netopia one.
Actually this might happen to you because your router needs configuration.
So let's go through the steps to do this router's configuration and you'll find your Xbox Live connection fine after this.
- First we'll need to go on the PC.
- And open the internet Explorer and type 192.168.1.254 in the address bar. Now you've accessed Netopia's settings page.
- On the menu to the left you'll find Firewall, click on it and select Low then save the changes.
- On the menu to the left you'll find Expert Mode, click on it then Yes to enter Expert Mode.
- On the menu to the left click on Configure, then Advanced then NAT.
- Now you'll find Service Name so scroll down the menu until you find Xbox Live Games. Now click Enable then Enable again.
- On the menu to the left click on Configure then Connection.
- Then on the main page scroll down until you find UPnP and check that box.
- Then Save.
- And finally turn off the Netopia router then turn it back on again.
Now you'll go on Xbox Live and everything would be working fine.
I hope this helps you.
And Enjoy Xbox Live...!!!
