    xbox live :'(
    So, everything in general usually works really well with regarding to xbox live, but i went home for like a week and when i came back and tried to play it said an update was needed but it was unavailable. And then on the connection test it said that it cannot connect to xbox live :/ No idea why as it worked fine before

    Any ideas of what i can do?

    Saw the Same issue with GFWL Marketplace, but I can sign in.

    This is likely to be the cause... http://www.lancs.ac.uk/iss/gatechange

    ISS are (finally) removing the webcache/proxy from the interface with the rest of the world, as they have other monitors in place. There will be complaints/hiccups along the way, but it means that NAT services don't work that well at the moment. Hold with it, things will be easier eventually.

    Regards,

    We (in networking anyway) are always happy to hold our hands up and say it's a fair cop. This time I doubt it's us, mainly because I haven't actually changed ResNet yet. This has just bust because MS have presumably changed something else to be none proxy compliant.

    I do the work to remove the proxy requirement from ResNet tomorrow morning at 7am, during which ResNet will loose access to the internet/network for a brief period.

    I suspect Xbox Live will play ball after it... if it doesn't.... well... we'll have to dig into that more but I doubt they'd be much more we could do to make it work.

    Also I'd just like to touch on the NAT not working well. You often have problems at the moment because there's too much NAT data for the device to cope with. We're replacing the device which does that NAT as well as removing the webcache requirements.

    But as always, this is not going to make "Strict NAT" go away permanently. We can likely never do this.

    My bad, this seems like an odd move from MS, in that case.

    Thanks for the response.

    GFWL works as normal, so I assume that Xbox LIVE will as well.

    EDIT: this is using no proxy settings.

    Hey I have Xbox as well, and when I got a new one it wouldn't let me download the necessary update when I was on campus. The error code was 80151103. It wouldn't let me download my profile or connect to xbox live...anyway Microsoft were bloody useless, so if you ever get it, just go to a friend's house (off campus) with an open nat type, and it worked there! Now I don't have any problems, aside from trying to connect with other people with a Strict Nat Type :/
    Feel free to add me on xbox, be cool to know other Lanc Uni people with Live :P PickVanCleef is my gt :P
