I've searched to see if this is anywhere else, couldn't find anything.

So here I go. I'm using a wireless connection to hook-up to XBOX live. On the "Test Xbox Live Connection" screen, everything is fine right up until "XBOXLIVE". I've solved this problem by taking down the router's firewall. But I'm keeping it up to protect my network.

Is there any other way around the firewall so I can connect my 360 to Live without taking down my firewall?

open the necessary ports in your firewall to allow XBL to work.


Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908874?sd=xbox to find out which one to open.

I go through my IP Control Panel to do so, right? Forgive me for being a moron, but I can't seem to find where those settings are.

Nevermind, I found that out. Is there a specific name I have to use for the application?
