Unable To Save Network Settings In Evolutionx
« on: December 18, 2008, 12:57:00 PM »

Find your evox.ini and edit the network section:

[Network]

SetupNetwork   = Yes
StaticIP   = No
Ip      = 192.168.1.250
Subnetmask   = 255.255.255.0
Defaultgateway   = 192.168.1.254
DNS1      = 0.0.0.0
DNS2      = 0.0.0.0
SetupDelay   = 0
SkipIfNoLink   = No

Set it up for your network. If you use DHCP then you need StaticIP = No. If you use static IP addresses then you need StaticIP = Yes, and you need to manually set the Ip, Subnetmask, Defaultgateway, and DNS1 (set DNS1 to be the same as your gateway).

Configuring the wireless adapter from your PC is fine.

You might want to find out how the Xbox is modded, so you can work out how to get it to a know state......

I didn't say make changes from the dashboard, I said edit the network section of evox.ini. Directly. FTP it to your PC, make the changes, ftp it back!! If you can't ftp to your Xbox directly, boot with Frosty's Rescue disc and try again.

To find out how the Xbox was modded, have a look here. If none of that gives you a definitive answer then you'll have to open up the Xbox. Knowing how it is modded will help you work out how to fix it. If you don't know how it is modded you'll struggle solving problems..... smile.gif

Just to add closure to this thread, I’ll let you know what I did to solve my problem.

In the end I used Auto Install Deluxe v4.3 to delete the install of evolutionx and installed xbmc. I used the file explorer (in AID) to look at evox.ini (before deleting it) and strangely the ip address was different to that displayed in the evolutionx network settings. Looks like there was some corruption in the evolutionx install that disabled the network settings. After removing it, the xbox boots to the ms retail dashboard and all the network settings options appeared. (I can also change them within xbmc too).

Anyway, thanks for all your help,

Tomaquet
