    Xbox 360 Connection Issues


    My pc is not listed when I test connection on the 360. When I try to view a map via my laptop i get the message "windows cannot discover any computer or device." In homegroup my 360 is allowed, well all devices are allowed and I checked in services my windows network sharing or something like that is started. I cannot stream a thing!!!

    make sure that all your ports are open on your router and also via your windows media player sharing options
    what i found is that i had to set up Window Media Center to find myself stuff
    if you don't have windows media center you can get a free ones

    also make sure your ports are open within your windows firewall
    Open CONTROL PANEL and select WINDOWS FIREWALL.

    In the 2nd TAB labelled EXCEPTIONS click the ADD PORT button to open up the following ports for Xbox Live (call them whatever you want).

    TCP 80
    UDP 88
    UDP 3074
    TCP 3074
    UDP 53
    TCP 53

    Which ports are required to be open for Xbox LIVE on your router or firewall
