hacked modem and xbox

[abracadabra]

hello,can anyone tell me is it possible to connect xbox to hacked modem,i know the ps3 does but i tried a couple of xboxes and cant get them online,i know you need subscription,would you have to get new subscription when you change to a hacked modem,they keep saying trying to get ip address,them they time out,thanks for any help

reboot modem then try getting ip

no probs ,will do,i think he did try that,no joy

i play my xbox online with "hacked" modem all the time so it does work, sounds more likely to be a issue with ur xbox not modem, make sure ur xbox is set to get ip and that automatically and like bad said make sure u reboot modem befor turning xbox on

[Bad_Ad84]

sounds like ip address is assigned to another device, modem reboot should sort it.

[its through a router,would that matter

[Bad_Ad84]

if its through a router, could be a router issue.

try directly connecting xbox to modem first, if that works its router prob

if it's through a router i have seen some in the middlesborough area and probably others where you have to go into the routers config page and clone the mac address by simply hitting clone mac address.

I installed broadband at a friends house and his router would not connect until i hit clone mac, as Bad_Ad says if it connects via direct connection to the modem then look through the routers settings etc.......always reboot everything though, power off 360 and all that........
