    If an update was requred and you didnt update, you would not be able to play online - so basically your firmware is uptodate.
    on the media update if you on a South african live acount, it wont let you download the media codecs, - sign up for anote free live acount but set the country as USA or UK and it will download when you try and play a media file.
    Some times the internet is so slow, it would be faster to just fly to Google's headquarters and ask them this $h1t in person.!

    nevermind...i got the locale sorted out, but still no luck...everytime i want to update the media codec, it just does nothing.... it looks like its just going to start the download and then the dialog box just pops away...

    You can download the update via their website under the support section. Did it for a mate of mine, worked fine.

    Sent from my GT-P7100 using MyBroadband Android App

    Try a creating a XBox live account online with your pc. Set you local to the U.K. Then retrieve the gamer tag from the xbox and then try DL the codecs.

    I tried to play a BRRip vid through my USB stick and I noticed the odd hitch. Would that be the xbox or the USB?

    Could be both the console and the video file, I dont use my xbox 360 as a media center persay but I do use PS3MS if I wanna stream movies on the fly. A very handy program I must say.

    Hi,

    I have connected my xbox360 120gb through my acer aspire 4315 laptop using my vodafone 3g k3565-z modem. I have been getting nat setting errors when I test my xboxlive connection. Keeps telling me that I have a nat setting set to moderate. I have scrounged the web for answers and finally found out that my apn must be set to unrestricted. After a 5 minute call to 082 155 they did it over the phone no mess no fuss. I have received the confirmation message that my apn is now unrestricted. My reception is not hot and I get two bars with an hsdpa connection fluctuating between poor and good.

    I want to play online with a friend in the same town but we cannot connect.

    I can't interact with users online while playing online and I can speak to them through my head phone during a game, but a guy who lives a kilometre away, I can't.

    How can I get an "open" nat setting, instead of open?

    I have litteraly tried reinstalling everything on my laptop, I'm running win7 and 3g updated software.
