    Default Read the gamespy FAQ

    Yo dude.

    First your firewall wont stop you from playing an online game. Only Hosting a Game would be affected.

    If you must host... foward ports 6500 6700 or 6800 (read the faq for Gamespy and Xbox) to your PC's IP address or put you PC IP address in teh DMZ of the router/wireless thing you have.

    BTW you must have 128K Upstream to host just 1 connection to your XBOX.

    Hope this helps

    Can you even choose the game to play? ex. Halo, THPS. Try re-installing gamespy cause that happened to me.

    List of games where?

    In the Xbox or Gamespy arcade?

    You must likt the games in Acrade and join the game in arcade then go to the XBOX and run multiplayer in Halo.

    It does work...
