Title: Socket Programming - What Ip, Why Cant Ping The 360?
Post by: No_Name on January 07, 2010, 11:49:00 AM

The system rejects ping requests by default.

The networking stack is protected as well on the system side to prevent open communication.

Is the network stack included on a hardware level, and protected similar to say.... what a hypervisor might do?

I'm really hoping a network stack won't have to be written by hand, that was a major let down for the Dreamcast's emulation scene.

an interesting topic is



i also tried

 // Start up the SNL with default initialization parameters
        XNetStartupParams xnsp;
   memset(&xnsp, 0, sizeof(xnsp));
   xnsp.cfgSizeOfStruct = sizeof(XNetStartupParams);
   xnsp.cfgFlags = XNET_STARTUP_BYPASS_SECURITY;


without success...my socket server is in listening mode and is waiting for accecpt a connection...it actually works...i can quit the program at any time...or open the 360 menu....
