This is kinda strange to be asking ftp help but i have no idea how to set up the network on vista so i can ftp. Could anyone help.

Shouldn't be any need. Do you have a router networked or were you using two NIC cards before you got vista? I have a router and never changed anything when going from xp to vista and everything worked as it did before. What is your setup?

Im the same as the guy above, i didnt need to alter anything to FTP from vista.

>.< im on dial up and that is why im having troubles. I dont have a router.

so phone line for internet and ethernet port for ftp? Setup a static IP for your xbox.

that is why it doesnt work. Vista is trying to find the internet through my xbox instead of trying to look at it like a home network. That is why i cant connect. It always says limited connectablility.

Do you have a CD Burner?
If so, why not burn the maps to a CD-R/RW and pop it in your xbox,
and copy the maps with your dashboards filemanager.
*assuming that your xbox dash can read file CDs*

I was having this problem too when I tried to set-up my FTP on XP, what I did to fix was I hooked everything up, and let it show up as a new LAN connection with 'limited connectivity' and then double clicked on it from the 'notification area' (area next to the clock) and then adjusted my settings like so:


(Also, just so you know, I'm still using Windows XP, that's just a vista theme.)

Ok just to make sure turk do you have a cross over cable going to from your eathernet port on your pc to xbox. I would set up a static ip on the xbox and then use a cross over cable and then ftp program like flash ftp. BTW a cross over cable is different from a regular cable because two of the wires are reversed on one end of the cable.

connect a xbox system link cord to the ethernet port in the back then set ur xboxs ftp to stactic then type in ftp://xbox:xbox@IPGOESHERE in the address bar. walla u love me

Just to let you know a xbox system link and a cross over cable are the same just cross over is the more technical name.
