I am connected to Road Runner via a new Netgear CG814WG v2 wireless modem/gateway. Of course, I am using a hardwire connection. Problem is, with a incredibly frustrating level of regularity (some nights every match) I get dropped out of matchmaking. Seems to occur betwenn step 2 and 3 (configuring game). I get a message that I am not connected to XBox Live and am propmpted to run the troubleshooter. Nearly every time the troubleshooter comes bak Ok, and I am right back into XBox Live. Only occurs with Halo2 - other games (Gears, Rainbow Six, G>R>A>W>) run with no issues. Anyone have any idea if I need to change some sort of setting, is this a bad router for Live, or perhaps just a bad unit? I had the same problem and had RR technical support come out and replace the router already. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm having the exact same problem. I am on a brand new wireless modem from Road Runner as well... my Xbox 360 is hardwired to the modem and my PC uses the wireless connection... no problems with ANY games OR the PC connection... ONLY on Halo 2. I have noticed, however, that when my connection is dropped, all the lights on my modem go out... except the power light of course... it's like the game forces my modem to reboot. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated... this is becoming aggravating

i have a very wierd problem. Everytime i try to load a map it takes like 5mins to load if its a small map and up to 15 mins to load a large map. This is a big pain especially in matchmaking. I can load the maps it just takes a very long time. its been 1 month since it started and i cant figure it out. It has not gotton better. Before i was able to play matches all day with no problems this just happened on day. CAN ANYONE HELP?
