Guys,

I am going crazy trying to resolve this issue.  I setup port forwarding with the following ports open:

TCP:  53,80,3074
UDP: 53,88,3074

Also, set the Xbox 360 configuration with all static entries (IP, GW, DNS).  In addition, just as a test I enable DMZ for a couple of minutes as a test as well, with no luck.  The XBOX 360 is hard-wired to the router.  I have no PC's issues with my other systems connected directly to the router.  Also, if I bypass the router, I have no dropping issues at all, using the same ethernet cable.  My download speed is 15mbps and around 3mbps on the upload.  Is there any other options within the router I should change?  Any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

What firmware do you have installed on the router?

[snapper]

I have checked around at past posts regarding Xbox Live issues and I didn't find a working solution yet.  Anyhow, here is the router information:   A1/A2      Firmware 1.21

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Check to see if SecureSpot is enabled, if it is disable it. You could also try to disabling DNS Relay, after doing so reboot the XBOX so the changes with take affect.

Where is the option to disable the DNS relay?  I will try that first before upgrading the firmware.  Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

[snapper]

I found the DNS relay option and just disabled it.  I will let you know, if that worked.

Thanks again

Just curious how you have your network setup? Are you running off the MAC table, or do you have a static IP assigbed to the Xbox? Are you letting DHCP assign ip's?

I have an XBox 360 on my network and have no disconnect problems. I'll list my setup:

• DIR-655 Hardware: A3 Firmware: 1.32NA
• XBox 360 using wired connection

Setup - Internet

• Advanced DNS Service Disabled
  
• Use Unicasting Enabled
  

Setup - Network Settings

• Enable DNS Relay Enabled (Shouldn't matter, but I use OpenDNS for my DNS servers under Internet Setup.
  
• DHCP Enabled using MAC reservation
  
• DHCP Alway broadcast Enabled
  
• NetBIOS Disabled
  

Advanced - Port Forwarding/Virtual Server

• Port Forwarding not setup for XBox 360 or XBox Live

Advanced - QOS Engine

• WAN Traffic Shaping Enabled
  
• WAN Manual Uplink Speed
  
• Connection Type Auto-Detect
  
• Enable QoS Engine Enabled
  
• Automatic Classification Enabled
  
• Dynamic Fragmentation Enabled
  

Advanced - Firewall Settings

• Firewall Enable SPI Enabled
  
• UDP Endpoint Filtering: Port And Address Restricted
  
• TCP Endpoint Filtering: Port And Address Restricted
  
• Enable anti-spoof checking: Enabled
  
• Enable UPnP Enabled
  
• Enable Multicast Streams Enabled

Advanced - SecureSpot

• SecureSpot Disabled

Unfortunately, disabling the DNS Relay option didn't work.  I even tried to configure the QoS for Xbox as priority 1.  Still having sporadic issues with it.  My DIR-655 A1/A2, it must be the first of its kind.  I guess at this point I will upgrade to firmware 1.32NA and let you guys know the result.  As a side note, I installed the 1.21 firmware (without securespot).  I know if I upgrade from 1.31 on, I cannot downgrade the firmware, which I was hesitant on doing.

I forgot to mention, I have a static IP assigned to my XBOX.....FYI

Guys,

Regretfully, all of my attempts to fix my router problem are coming to an end.  I am opting on buying a new router for xbox 360 live.  Any recommendataions?

[lessblue]

wow, so many issues with this d-link firmware. great piece of hardware that is crippled by the firmware.

for a new router, get a cheap asus and flash with dd-wrt or tomato. or get a buffalo router and do the same.

No issues here....

Another thing to try, would be connecting your XBox directly to your modem. There is the possibility that it's your ISP/modem that could be causing the problem.
