[WrathTheLoki]

I'm trying to ftp my xbox... I've tried EVERYTHING.    I tried turning on and off noob-sending... passive mode... I've tried adjusting the boxes ip address... I've tried using anonnymous mode, using password... changing name and password... changing the port adress... ALL of it!  It just won't connect!   I've tried smartftp and flashfxp...  neither will work!  It stinks!   Can someone PLEASE help me... I've gotten it to work before... but it's been like a year...   Please help.   -Wrath

Change your xbox to static ip and put in 192.168.1.200 as the ip, and then change your pc ip address to 192.168.1.201 .

Launch up flash and try to connect with  username: xbox
                                                                 password: xbox

First, thanks for this guide!
2nd I'd like to say that :

Having 2 NICs connected to your PC, HELPS ALOT TO SOLVE THE XBOX UNCONECTABLE FTP!

I was trying to connect to my xbox for the last 3 weeks, with only one NIC in my PC and I never got it to run. Untill I've passed trow this thread, added another NIC, loaded my Unleash-X, started XBMC, to see if it helped, at first I didn't notice s**t, until all of a suden I see NEWS scrolling down , I was WTF?! I went to the Weather option and it worked! ****! first thing I did... IS TO BACKUP MY XBOX "CDRive", "EEPROM", "UDATA" and "TDATA" folders!

THANKS TO THE SMDEPOT FORUM USERS!

Glad to see it works

My Window XP Computer setting for TCP/IP

IP address: 169.254.244.201
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

Please help..
I really don't want to change the setting in the computer I have other stuff already configured
for the network.

[Snafupossum]

make your xbox's network settings like this, going through the hub

IP address: 169.254.244.202
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

[CCassell]

Where in the unleashX menu is this done?

I may already have a printer set at

 IP address: 169.254.244.202
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

 Guess I coud set it at

IP address: 169.254.244.203    or   169.254.244.204
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

I assume that would not make a difference on 203 or 204

I will try this tonight. I hope this takes care of the problem.
Please get back to me on how to mod the FTP settings on the xbox

Thanks,
Clay

what exactly is a router. how would i do this if i had wireless?

[Snafupossum]

router is what splits your internet to all the pc's / xbox's in your house, and wireless is the same as wired, you just need to know the ip address of what you want to connect 2

Man it has been awhile...

Glad to see my guide has helped people out!

When time premits, ecpect Version 2 of this guide with way less spelling errors!

[drfweega]

I actually made a V2 of this guide myself but I haven't submitted it because I wanted yours to remain here NOS--- . Welcome back.

[AngelAssassin]

about the LINUX.... i have the game save for splinter cell on my AR memory card, so i just load up the game and go to the game save and it sould download the program??

[drfweega]

You have to copy the gamesave off of your memory card onto the xbox then launch splinter cell and choose that gamesave to load. Then you will get a screen with all the options like backup eeprom install softmod etc. First you want to backup the eeprom then install the softmod. All of it is straight-forward so it won't be too hard.

[AngelAssassin]

Also someone said something about ftp with internet explorer and i was wondering what that had to do with anything. but i tried to do what they said with putting "ftp://xbox:xbox@192.168.0.3" into the adress bar and nothing happened. plz help.
