Xbox wont connect to AT&T... help?? [SOLVED]


Recommended Posts

We go at&t/uverse yesterday and all has been working fine. All computers, laptops, iphones, whatever has been connected to wifi successfully but my xbox and my brothers xbox will not get a signal. The xbox routers we have worked fine with xfinity/comcast. The xbox routers also recongnize the 2WIREXXX but when connected see no signal and fail the network test almost immediately.

What I have tried:

Going to advanced config settings (http://XXX.XXX.XX.XXX) allowing the cisco router (AT&T's main router) to authorize passage of the XBox through the firewall. no avail yet...

I cant be the only one with this issue, and don't even suggest calling uverse.

Tried manually adding the MAC Address and still didnt work.

Ypu shouldnt go advanced setting unless you EVERY single detail about your modem and all. Go to advanced. Scroll all the way right and restore to factory defaults and go back and search for your wifi. Click it and retry again. If still doesn't work then follow the troubleshooting they give you

it isnt just "enter the password" and it works. The new modem has firewall settings where it blocks my xbox. I think i know how to resolve it. The IP and Mac Address of my xbox router and xbox were restricted by the AT&T modem, and no, i do not need to restore factory settings since it didnt work when i had changed nothing. And what i changed doesnt hamper anything, it just put less firewall restrictions and allowed detection of the xbox. But i still need to allow the xbox IP to be recongnized by the modem.

Sheena, the xbox detects it fine, the modem isnt allowing the signal to pass.

and there are NUMEROUS people with my same issue, yet uverse hasnt changed anything, must be because their support costs money even over the phone...

OK, I finally got it to work.

The issue is that Xbox consoles can only deal with WEP protection or no protection at all. Uverse internet comes set with the wireless password on WPA or WPA2 security, this being more secure than WEP, but not good if you want to play XBL.

With the http://XXX.XXX.XX.XXX (advanced config number on the modem) you go to the site, then go to LAN -> Wireless, and then scroll down to security type, it will have a drop down bar with WPA and WPA2 as the default, set it to Shared WEP since Open WEP essentially has no protection. The password to wireless will be the same and just enter it on the xbox like normal and it should work.

I dont know if the MAC address and allowing the firewall to pass XBox application is also a reason it worked, but with those 3 things my XBL is connected and working.
