Title: Game Session Not Longer Available...
Post by: AliBaba on December 05, 2003, 06:50:00 AM

Ok, so I installed X-link on my pc and bo-xlink on my xbox. They're both working ok. I can login, i can make rooms, i see my xbox under local xbox. So what's the problem?
I can't join anyone's session and they can't join me. When I am in a room with someone and he hosts a game, for example TopSpin, I can't join the session. I see the session name, but when i activate it , there's a message saying: "This game session is no longer available".

Here's the xtest report:

I think it's got something to do with the UPnP. But I've installed that already by config->software->windows->....  Is there another place where you have to activate the UPnP or something...

Please help

No, just a crossover cable to my pc. My network is working fine... It's just that I can see the game, but I can't join...

You get this message in top spin if the ping is too high,

I have also seen it in other games, but the problem was due to I was using ZoneAlarm firewall.

i dont know how to read a xtest report so i cant comment about that.
