I only play Halo's Firefight and Campaign. The multiplayer makes me rage to much. Lol

But, since i got my Razor Onza Controller, it has made up for a lot of things. 

But, wanted to ask. You think it would be better to make the Remote IP Range 0.0.0.0 instead of the 65.52.0.0? I played last night online with the new settings. I was the only one here and i seen a great difference when Battlefield put me on the US servers instead of the across seas servers. I seen a great improvement.

But, what i have seen is this. It makes no sense to me. If you go look at your status for internet sessions. You can see where the traffic is prioritized, the in and out, time out and etc...  Why is the time out on the one's we make a higher priority still go out slower than the regular? 

[FurryNutz]

It seems that the specific Remote IP range and ports is what XBL uses. Using any other ports or global port ranges might not be utilized by the console. All the XBL services seem to be done only thru these addresses.

[Fr0sT]

Oh, got you there. I see what you mean. The ports that we have in priority fall under the range you set. I had that thought, but wanted to make sure.

I wanted to say that when no one is downloading or anything. I see a great difference in gaming with this setup. Since i have prioritized certain ports and my xbox's. It has been running great. Thank you Furry!  

[FurryNutz]

You can put the other deviced in the gamefuel as well and prioritize them if you feel the need too. I have. 

Glad your enjoying the router man. Good times.

DGL 4500 for the wins! Only if we had a bandwidth limiter or a way to cap the router once we reach the ISP limit etc. The more features the more better, after all this is a gaming router.

I was under the impression that to run Two XBOX 360's at the same time that you had to use Port Triggering not Port Forwarding and that you had to configure that under Advanced/Special Applications. Correct me if I am wrong.

If this is correct do you still have to set up port forwarding in the Advanced/Gamefuel?

This is kinda confusing and not very well documented to say the least. It becomes even more so when following the stickies on the site when it comes to setting up the PS3 side of things it basically says to open every port known to man. Searching for the correct ports for PSN turns up something completely different.

[FurryNutz]

Need to only setup reserved IP addreses for the xboxes an use Gamefule rule.

[DrunkJug]

ok I think I can handle that if that is the case.

I was told that you had to use port triggering so that both consoles can play at the same time on the same game. If you could clarify a little that would make me feel better about changing my settings

I don't reserve IP addresses I put in static addresses on my consoles outside of the DHCP range. Any problems doing it this way?

 

[FurryNutz]

Yes, you need to reserve (static) IP addresses on the router, not the devices. Use Gamefuel rules for multiple xboxes, don't use Port Triggering or Forwarding.

Heres what my gamefuel looks like:

I have 2 xboxes at .49 and .50. If I were to add more, then I would just increase the local IP range to include the new IP address that was reserved on the router, so example of .48 thru 50 and so on. My IP address range ends at .50. Just need to make sure that the multiple devices are all in the same sequence regarding IP addresses, i.e. .1,.2,.3,.4,.5 and so on so the Local IP Range will be inclusive to the addresses. If an IP address is out of sequence, say your devices are at .1,.2,.3 and .6 and you set the Local IP address Range to .1 thru .5, The device with the IP address of .6 won't be included in the range in game fuel and won't be under it's management. Seems kind of confusing however once you doing once or twice, you'll see that I'm talking about. This makes it easier later on down the road to add more or less.

The SAE and furrynutz are actual PCs that I've put in to show that you can put other devices under gamefule rules and it will help manage them as well should they be online at the same time as the xboxes. They can still get Internet and will not interfere with the gaming on xbox. 

Let us know how it goes.

I'm going to update the sticky soon. Just got to get my *** in gear.

Tell her to set the bandwidth lower on her netflix account it will consume less GB per hour ETC. Very good feature.
