I modded my xbox by making usb ports on it and kingroach's ndure exploit 3.0. My computer is permanently connected to the internet via a router. The router has no free ports anymore, so I put another NIC in my computer and made a crossover cable. Now my setup is like this:

I also did a "route -p add" which should route all trafic on subnetmask (snm) 255.255.255.0 between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.3 correctly but I think it was already working.

The output of a "route print" command is this (may not be correct English, mine was Dutch so I translated a few words).

Internet on my xbox doesn't work. In xbmc I set the dns server to my WAN dns server. FTP access works perfectly. Any ideas on how to do this? I'm on windows xp.

Get an ethernet switch. Much easier.

I would put all the Layer 1 devices on the same Network. ie 192.168.0.XXX.

Also, you may need to add a gateway to your XBOX to let it know to push outgoing traffic to 192.168.0.10.

You can also set 'static routes' in the HOSTS file.

what u are doing is rwe-enventing the wheel. Go buy a 10 dollar switch from any electronisc store and plug it in 1 port of you router. that will give you more ports. your dhcp server can hand out 255 ip addresses easy.

let me know ifthis is not an option.....

By "layer 1 devices", do you mean everything attached directly to the router? What I'm doing now is putting everything on 192.168.1.***

I have the gateway set to 192.168.1.22 which is my second network card's IP. I'll try changing it to 192.168.1.10 (which is my first NIC to the router).

What do you mean? I did use the command "route -p add blahblah". Not exactly sure, but I think it routes all trafic on the network to and from 192.168.1.21 (xbox) through my second NIC.

Yeah I would.. but there's no more space in the tube to pull another wire through. Mine and my mother's CAT5 cable already go through it, and (I think) 2x coax. There's no room left, getting those 2 CAT5's was a hell already.

no no no....

You get a 20 dollar 4-port switch, and put it next to your XBOX. take the cable coming from the Router, and plug it in the uplink port of the switch. then plug your XBOX and pc in the other open ports. easy solution.

these devices give u extra ports. no configuration.....

Yeah well I could do that but I installed everything now hardware wise. I'd rather wanna know how to get it working with 2 NICs.

Can you tell me:

- do I put my 2nd NIC and xbox on 192.168.1.*** or 192.168.0.***, if the stuff directly on the router is on 192.168.1.***
- is there need to use ICS or can I just place them in the same subnet with my pc as gateway for the xbox?
- what's that static routing in the HOSTS file got to do with it? Isn't that meant to influence dns requests only?

Well, if u want to do it this way, then before u can even get things going, u are still missing 1 critical piece;

You need a cross-over cable between the XBOX and the NIC on the pc. you can not physically connect to nics w/o a crossover cable.

routers, switches, etc automattically swap the TX and RX. u will that cable before we contnue. i think that is your only problem.

I'm using a crossover cable.

did not see that in the drawings or posts...

Can u ping the XBOX ip from the PC?

Can u ping the other nic?

nic1 (to router) 192.168.1.10 w/ ics
nic2 (to xbox) 192.168.0.1
xbox 192.168.0.2, gateway 192.168.0.1, dns 192.168.0.1
