We just set up another 360 in the house and tried to play Gears of War via system link tonight. We couldn't get a game started, we could see each other (tried to host with both systems) but each time we went to join a game it would come back and say it lost connection with the host.
Our original 360 is connected via wireless and the new 360 is hard wired into the router. My router is a Buffalo WHR-HP-G54.
I have the 360 that is connected via wireless on DMZ, with all updates applied to the system and game. I also have a static IP set for it.
The new 360 has a static IP and the ports 88, 2074, and 3074 forwarded. The system and game have all the updates applied.
UPNP is toggled on for the router....
We tried doing the "hard drive maintenance" (on both systems) to see if it would work without the game update. No luck... We then updated the again and tried, still no luck.
With all that said (I don't think I left any detail out...), any ideas on why we can't get system link going?
Thanks guys
