Re: "Invalid Connection Data" Message XBOX 360 acting as an MCE

Bill,
The network trace is reporting TCP checksum issues when attempting to
communicate. This can be caused by the router or network card. Lets look the
network card first.

Please review the settings of your network card and disable checksum
offload.
Please set the Ethernet card in the MCE PC to run at 100/Full duplex,
instead of the default of Autosense/1000/Full.

Once these are set please connect the PC to the Xbox, start a netcap trace
and try the setup process again.

Thanks

Bill,
I am looking at your trace today and have a couple questions for you.
Was the PC directly connected to the Xbox during this trace?
What type of network card is installed in the Sony Viao PC?
Are there any messages being reported to the event viewer during your
setup
attempt?
Are you using the Norton Internet Security Firewall or do you have other
Internate Security Suite items installed?

Thanks

Todd,

The capture using netcap has been sent.

Thanks,

Bill

The network trace appears to be garbled. Could you capture a new
trace
using Netcap? (my current favorite tool for such things). Steps:

1) Install the Windows XP Service Pack 2 Support Tools from the
following
link
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=49AE8576-9BB9-4126-9761-BA8011FABF38&displaylang=en
2) Once installed, open a cmd window and change active directory to
the
Support Tools directory
3) Start the network capture using "netcap.exe". The /n: parameter
specifies
which network interface should be monitored. To discover the network
interfaces on your machine type "netcap /?" The interfaces will be
listed
at
the end to the executables help details.
... Example: C:\Program Files\ Support Tools>netcap /n:1
4) Conduct the steps to reproduce the problem you are seeing (attempt
to
get connected). Once complete return back to the command window and
hit
the
space
bar.
5) E-mail the trace to the same address (msft_mcx at hotmail) and post
back
here once you've done so

thanks,.
Todd

Todd,

Did you receive the 2 emails I sent you...packet capture and
DvcConn.logg
file?

Thanks,

Bill

Todd,

I have Norton Internet Security 2006, I have opened all the
ports I
have
found in the various kb articles such as 911728 and followed the
instructions
found on Symantecs website from top to bottom. I have also
disabled
all
aspects of it on many occasions.

I have opened ports on the Linksys router and taken it out of
play
by
direct
connection of the PC and XBOX. Still the same thing...I get the
"Invalid
Connection Data" Message on the XBOX 360 when I try to connect.
What
I
find
interesting is everytime I boot up my computer I get a
notification
in
the
tray in the lower right hand corner asking me if I would like to
make
a
connection to the new XBOX 360 it has found!!!

I have followed the steps in KB911739 many times...for a while I
had
to go
through the process in the article just to get the XBOX to not
blow
past
the
8 digit code after getting the "Invalid Connection Data"
Message.
After I
deleted the entry under device table (one time only) in the
registry
it
stopped blowing by the 8 digit code but for each and everything
I
try
I go
back through the steps in KB911739 to ensure nothing is left to
chance.

I have a packet capture available that I attempted to email to
you...I
took
a guess at your email address so who knows if you will get the
email.
