Hope this is in the correct forum...
Okay - getting closer to getting Kai working...
My setup:
V1.0 XBox with MA SoftMod
Dashboard: Avalaunch .49.2
XBMC Nov 30th build
DHCP: IP address is 192.168.0.3
Connected via cable to router
PC
Windows XP Pro SP2
NO firewalls
30000 UDP port forwarded
Kai VII
DHCP: IP address is 192.168.0.2
D-Link 802.11G router
PC is able to connect to Kai service. When XBox connects from Avalaunch or from XBMC, the UI drops, indicating that I'm connecting successfully. In Avalaunch, I can see arenas count down and get numbers next to game names that support SYSTEM LINK. In XBMC, I can browse arenas and get chat, etc. When I start a game that supports System Link, I never see any games listed.
I noticed that when I am connected to Kai, before I start a game, I go to my PC and ping my XBox. It pings just fine. As soon as I start a game, the XBox can no longer be pinged. This indicates to me that my XBox is dropping connection as soon as I start a game.
Dang it. I gotta get this workin'.
