Re: [WISPA] Xbox 360 issues
Microsoft gets slammed a lot but my communication with them in regards to my xbox and service has been pretty good. I paid for a year of live service in January and lost my xbox in a car fire (iam8up.com/fiya) in February. They refunded the full amount.

On the 3rd unit myself in about as many years. Don't know many Xbox users that not lost one due to the so called ring of death. The ones that haven't bought the fan kit right of the bat.

Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues
Just a little side note here - when it comes to static IP addresses on the Xbox (or a reserved DHCP lease if you're into simplicity and ease =) a lot of people return their Xboxes due to hardware failure and get new units which drops the MAC address and IP configuration you had before.

Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues
Indeed. If someone's connection is crap and they're the host, everyone else's will be crap as well for the duration of that game. Previously an upstream of mine had a bad router that would decide on its own what traffic it would or would not pass without issue. The issue was most noticeable on World of Warcraft, but downloads from various companies didn't work either. All I could do was to have someone play that game at a hop and see if it worked or not. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com -- From: "Marlon K.

Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues
So, if the host of the game is on a bad connection that would screw up everyone? I've got people with 8 and 9 meg connections having trouble. Found out about a play station customer that's having some trouble too. I think that there must be something on our network(s) that is at least adding to the problem.

Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues
Problems with PC games? I believe the vast majority, if not all XBox games are hosted by the users in the game instead of a central server (as mentioned earlier). It's entirely dependant on how good or bad everyone's connection is. Could be your connection quality back to MS central.

Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues
We've seen trouble for months out here. Even with customers on connections that run 1 to 2 megs.

Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues
I believe the Tuesday before or a week before that they launched a bew firmware for the console (100 megs or more IIRC) which could be related, but my stance has always faulted with lousy servers. It explains how it goes good and bad from game to game all day every day.

Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues
Xbox live service has been up and down since Black Friday. It is possible that the host machine is also causing problems, but my guess is that the million new subscribers over the weekend gave the service a pounding. See if they are still having the issues today, as it seems things have smoothed out a bit. -Wes From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Travis Johnson Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2008 10:04 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] xbox 360 issues Hey now Nowhere, ID is really close to me Josh Luthman wrote: The games on those consoles are hosted (network wise) by other players.

[WISPA] xbox 360 issues
Hi All, I've had calls from a number of xbox 360 customers that are having trouble with game play etc. Very long lags, poor pings etc. These calls are coming from customers off of multiple towers and even in different towns.
