MTU=maximum transmission unit. Have to get into the router to fix it, assuming your box isn't directly connected to the modem.

You need to surf on over to the modem manufacturer's website and see how to adjust it, if it is indeed possible.

Have you tried unplugging your modem's power for a couple a minutes and plugging it back in?

this should do the trick. whenever i have ANY internet or XBL problems the first thing i do is power cycle the modem+router.

lol! if you call the cable company, this is the first thing they're gonna tell you to do. I have friends who've called because they couldn't figure this out.

[musclestang89]

never even heard of the MTU.


hey Fred you play Halo2 any, if so send me a friends request. I think I figured out my probelm. (i think). I went to my routers website and updated it. So far its hasn't gave me any problems.

No problems here......my internet is rolllllling and my 360 is smoooth.

Thats weird I had those kinda problems on my old X box, when that happened to me I would call the X box 1-800 number and they would guide me through the whole connecting process and get it running right. No problems yet with my 360 connecting online, just wish more people had a 360, so could them online. my user id is the same as it is on dfwstangs.
