i have noticed that this sometimes happens if you join a room, and then its full when you join, that causes it to drop you back, but it lags a bit.

you can fix this by going into the advanced options and setting the refresh from 30 to 5 seconds.

that should help anyway...

i cant even use boxlink cos it just stays on waiting for xserver data, i can still play tho using xlink so i knw that my pc is detecting the xbox etc

bizzare, maybe someone else can assist...i havent seen that before...

if your box is on the same subnet, you shouldnt have a problem...

you do have rc2 of boxlink, right?

Odd.

2 things to check..

1.) As jz said, make sure u've got the latest of both parts (2.2.4 and Bo-XLink RC2)

2.) Make sure no firewall is active on your LAN connection.. i dont mean normal firewall as in checking ure connection to the internet - but stuff like the XP firewall being turned on for the internal LAN adapter (wouldnt think its possible - but in certain cases it is)... If you need to open a port for Bo-XLink on your LAN (i dont mean forwarding - but open the port in an internal firewall, it's 34520 UDP) ...

I honestly doubt if either of those 2 are the case .. if not, it could be that you have no contacts in messenger mode?? I'm not sure - i thought i fixed that problem - but maybe...

If none of this works, let me know and we'll break out the www.ethereal.com and take a closer look at where it's fucking up..

Cheers
