How to Tether Your Android Phone to Connect to Xbox Live (PC+Wired)

[robhlittle]

has anyone done this successfully with osX? if so, please help!

[CrazyKenny134]

Ok guys I found out all the MTU crap and why it doesnt work and stuff.. The latest verson of PDANET 3.2 has been giving problems for a lot of people not letting them connect. So what you should do is get the version 2.45 off there website and follow the exact thing he says in the video and you should be good.. If you got anymore problems just message me.

[oDECREEx]

I just tried this step for step and it doesn't even get to the internet,:/

[LNB21]

I have windows Vista and I still keep getting the same MTU error message on my XBox. I tried to set it to a few numbers like 1500 and 2000 but it still gave me the same message. Any ideas?

[foxxkid89]

How do I get 3.0 if ice already updated to 3.2?

[foxxkid89]

Mtu would not work for me either. I did this so many times ugh... Mine won't even give me ethernet option.

[JPVBV2010]

Network Connections:An error occured while Internet Sharing was being enable

[1morganneil1]

[1morganneil1]

my MTU isnt saving

[bradleycheshire]

[coheaproductions]

how do you get NAT type to be open instead of strict?

[spityogame103]

I have easytether on my phone I pluged it into my laptop and it gets its internet like that. What do I do after that????

[alsomeguy13]

this didnt work for me.i did everything you said like restarting and it never worked.i restarted my xbox 10 times and still did not work.can you please help.

[MrMonkee1994]

Since I have one of the newest updates of the Xbox dashboard I cannot configure my network settings on my Xbox unless I am already connected to the internet. Please tell me how to fix this..

[bostonsportschik]

If you have a Sprint phone just download it from june fabrics. After you download it, just set your to allow USB Storage so that you can view your files on your computer. Go to your download file in your phone and start the download. The install will load it to your phone at the same time.

[bostonsportschik]

****Do not update to PDA Net 3.02**** This method won't work with the new upgrade. Just download either 2.42 or 3.0 again and you will be fine. Upgrading will cause the X-Box live to disconnect and never work again.

[IamN1ckk]

@bostonsportschik Thank you so much, I tried to connect to Xbox live for 2 hours with PDA 3.02 then read your comment installed 3.0 and worked on the first try, I only had to enable internet connection sharing.

[CrazyPerson1236]

@bostonsportschik ever?

[wzsoccerplyr]

Wait a minute. When I go to the network thing, the PDA Net shows up as a Broadband Adapter and not a Modem like yours does. I know this is my problem bc I use a USB Modem to play Xbox Live and I have to do the network sharing via that. PDA Net doesnt have that for me. Any help? PDA Net v. 3.02

[wzsoccerplyr]

@wzsoccerplyr Alright nvm, had to download a older version. Seems now that the modem is there, choosing the Local Area Connection under the PDA Net Modem sharing isnt there, just the 3 check boxes???

[BabusSuein]

This did nothing for me

[Mw34xbox360]

Its not on sprint andriod market

[Coles109]

I did all you did too and nothing. :( please help

i restarted my pc and xbox but still nothing. pleeeease help.

[marcodamexican1]

[NJA119988]

dude i just conecter my usp and my phone to my xbox and a screen showed up saying use as internet connection.. Then im connected to xbox live.. Lmao.. I got android to

[bobbtav]

how do you do it if you have vista cause some things are a little different

[MrMonkee1994]

@bobbtav It's pretty much the same thing, the only thing I saw that was different was the network and sharing center. Instead of whatever he say go to you go to manage network connections..

[mjisurdad]

Halo 3 ftw

[beastly12345678]

wtf my thing wont show a sharing tab so how can i get it to share with my xbox

[MrMonkee1994]

@beastly12345678 I had to disconnect the network I was using to get the sharing tab to pop up

[TheMGProjects]

hmm for some reason i can connect to xbox live and download updates, but i can't join party's and i can't join or find games. Anyone know the problem and how to fix it?

[millerc96]

I got internet running I just can't get the mtu right can anybody help I think it might be the application for the mtu not anything else

[Rhettanks]

which is ethernet

1.broadcom netlink

2.atheros

3.pdabroadband

[CallHimSmoke]

@Rhettanks Broadcom is your ethernet

Atheros is your wireless and pdabroadban is your phone

[lilphilli12]

i got a broadband error

[D3MOLISHOR]

Everything was successful except for the MTU SETTING ERROR. . .

[OPreaper69]

Drtcp give me 4 options

1:gigabit

2:microsoft virtual ----

3:pdanet broadband

4:Broadcom-------

which is the ethernet???

[tdeleedesign]

do you have the mac version, connecting using wireless connection or ethernet connection?

[ibEsHIZZNIT4232]

when I put in the same post number, it tells me to use a different one. even when one's UDP and the other is TCP.

[internziko]

so... had to downgrade to PDAnet V 2.4.2. just googgle the apk file and either download it straight to your phone or install it with an app installer... but...IT WORKS!!! :)

- windows 7 x32

- sprint evo 4G (truly unlimited data..lol)

[nrsolja1022]

The MTU program doesn't pick up my ethernet connection. Where would I find it?

[lucask84]

oooomggg... your the man. ive been working on this for hours... literally! thanks a ton, works great!!!!

[pauliojr]

DUDE!!! HUGE THANKS!!!!! I did this with Windows XP and worked like a charm. I ran across a few "problems" while doing this, but when you want X Box Live you will figure it out lol.

1. Was the initial installation of the PDA program.(Add RUNONCE as a folder in registry)

2. Couldn't find where to edit ports. (Network Connections,Right Click,Properties,Advanced,Sett­ings,Advanced,Settings,Add Port

3. Make sure you pick the right adapter when running MTU program!! Pick 2 if you need to.

THANK U!

[thebestatMW3]

of course its legal y would yur phone comp. give u tethering then

[MultiBulgarin]

is this legal?

[Frankiebboy]

Good vid if your 17,how about, a 'click Yes' and done?

[DeejayGrubby]

@AceMathias How can I install 3.00 version ? I already have 3.02 . Please help me . Message me or something . Please !

[AceMathias]

for anyone having MTU errors. This can be fixed by ensuring you are using version 3.00 of pdanet. (do not use either version 3.02 or 2.45).

Do not install on phone first. Let the windows version install on phone too.

Have successfully got working using windows 7 64 bit.

Good Luck everyone else.

[MadHardRecords]

Help, I can't get past internet on the 360. It says it can't access the internet. It says there is a problem with my connection. I did everything you said and it didn't work. Plus on the MTU thing on the computer, it doesn't say Ethernet. So then I just reset the faculty settings and it turned to automatic. My xbox has no problems with my IP address or DNS, it just can't get internet. My laptop and phone can still get internet though. Please help?!

[gohoggyourself]

@MadHardRecords You need to find your ethernet device on the list, for instance, mine is an Nvidia device.

[DreamWeeder]

Your a fucking retard kid you don't use 3g when bridging dumass troll

[barbell23]

[Futuresoldier121]

Damn it!! I need a pc!! Lol

[JarrettGuy]

ok i have a iphone 4 that is jail brocken thru cydia. i downloaded and purchased the "full" addition to pdanet. The iphone 4 allows pdanet to "Broadcast a WIFI hotspot" so this means anywere you are "if in range" you can connect to the internet. and after all that good stuff you simply connect your ethernet cord, and internet connection sharing and bam its all automatic. Studys show iphone work better than droids or any other mobile while using "PDANET" so iphones are recommended. messg 4 help

[jblackbird09]

EVERYBODY USE PDANET VERS 2.42 AND U CAN PLAY ONLINE MULTIPLAYER.

[jblackbird09]

can connect but nat type is strict.

[WezzzzuR]

can you use easytether instead?

[carlsgtp]

worked once, but laptop went to sleep and now keeps giving me the mtu error. any help?

[prettygirlz1234]

what are the ports for ps3?

[rhettthom15]

Doesn't work for me, it keeps saying the MTU isn't high enough. I've restarted my xbox and it still doesn't work.

[brianadams90]

Worked perfect for me! Thanks man. I used Faveset Klink on my Optimus V. Everything was the same except for the modem name!

[Jdawg5215]

do you need the extra plan for att thats like $40 or is it just with standard 2gb service?

[CheerleaderLy]

I tried this for my brother's xbox and it didn't work at the end. ugh. we are at a hotel anyways and leaving tommorrow.

[dfreshboi12]

i have pdanet and currently using it to power my computer with internet witch works totally fine. but the problem im having is trying to connect it to xbox live i have my ethenet cord running from my xbox to-pc . then i bridged. the pdanet to the local connection on my computer it says little to none action then it says ip address conflict with another device hooked up says the connection is only running 100mpb whats going on please help

[FreeFragSGS]

Why can't the phone be plugged in directly via USB? People are going to look for that before looking for this. Your video's title is just going to waste time.

[1fartmonkey1]

You have to call Verizon wireless and add the tethering option. This should cost an additional $20 (I live in CA) to your monthly bill/with a 2gb monthly limit. This should be about 40-80 hrs of game play a month. Good luck

[campbellcorpse530]

I keep running into problems with this. Do I plug my ethernet cord directly into my computer to the xbox? I can't check to see if my connection is public because when I type in my ip address it wont come up. Is my computer supposed to be the modem? I have the right cord for the xbox tether. This has been a pain for two weeks now. If anyone can help I would appreciate it!

[biglaban]

if u dont have home inet the pdanet can be downloaded from their site through the phone it will save to your sd card all u have to do is mount the sd via the usb cable open it on ya pc goto downloads an u will c pda net click it the installer will take over

[001535gogojon]

[WolfaRiio]

[Zelement911onrs]

it says for me something about making sure my router's MAC filtering allows your console's MAC address or is disabled. i dont know how to do this. can anyone help?

[marlboroman420420]

[Haves1234X]

okay this helped but i did the reset and still got the MTU 1364 error... could it be because i have v. 3.02 of pdanet? also i changed my MTU in CMD to 1492 and checked to make sure i changed it and i did... but it still comes up with the error... is it because i have to change it on my phone 2 not just my computer? EVO 4G

[oshin9X]

when i put in the ports it says number of ports already being used

[ever6]

@oshin9X

Hey use 54 for xbox 1 & 2 and also use PDANET 3.0 FOLLOW THE VIDEO AND IF YOU GET A ERROR ON DNS 8.8.8.8 Use 192.168.1.4. Man it took me many days and hrs and finally it works no issues. roll back to 3.0 PDANET. PDANET 3.02 doesn't work and causes errors.

[kitty38116]

I still dont understand... this is a OLD xbox I have the SLIM Xbox and I have a EVO 3d with the hotspot, so do I still need to use PDANET and a ethernet cord?

[Arev0]

@kitty38116 no just turn the hotspot on and make sure the xbox detect the hotspot

[Astindan]

Are you a Husker fan? I am, and btw good video.

[kitty38116]

I must say...This was a great video and well explained! Thanks so much! I got the pdanet up and running, now im working on the xbox part.

[chickenturtle1]

[jet100c]

[Crewshot]

your the shit MAN THANKS

[hahaveryfunnyOHYEAH]

@huskermania oh yeah and my connection to the internet on my phone does work well using PDAnet.

[hahaveryfunnyOHYEAH]

@huskermania i followed your directions up to the T and for my xbox I put in 192.168.1.5 IP,

Gateway 192.168.1.4 and finally both DNS 8.8.8.8 with the ethernet cord plugged in both computer and xbox and I can only connect to the network and not the internet. What should I do?

[hahaveryfunnyOHYEAH]

and by the way if these methods dont work I may have to settle with regular wifi.

[hahaveryfunnyOHYEAH]

@huskermania how is the gameplay on any games? How smooth does it run? If you can figure out how to speed up the connection let us know, please!

[Elxsive]

How do u get pdanet 3.0

[Lyndea23]

i am also having trouble connecting to the servers...suggestions anyone

[chazf1777]

Rolled back to 3.0 and connected to xbox live but not the game's servers?

Anyone??

[xaceflowerx]

I did it! thank u very much!

[forestpaintball]

is this free ?

[Smubbs]

this faggot has abandoned the video

[BKaneda]

Installing a prior version has gotten rid of the MTU error, however it presents a new problem. I cannot find a server online, even though I have friends currently playing on those servers. Also I get a error code on Marketplace that bared its head back in '09 and was apparently fixed.

Suggestions?

[FLSoco]

! IMPORTANT !

Version 3.02 of PDANet disables XBox 360 Access!

An "MTU issue the have with XBox 360 users they hope to correct in the future". Please revert to 3.0 if this error happens to you!

[XxHooksxX]

@FLSoco

Thanks, I was about to give up!

[halo3357hiii]

@FLSoco DUDE YOU SAVED ME BIG TIME! i just got rid of verizon broadband today cuz it was slow and because of your comment i got pdanet to work with my xbox! xbox live is now up and running! thumbs up for your comment.

[melikeFoW]

If i has the internet to download the usb thing on my comp i wouldnt need this would i? Dumb

[Apacxxx]

@melikeFoW you download the 'usb thing' onto your phone. then to comp.

[TheRwbarthel]

I have done this step by step, and all I get when doing this is that there is an error on the network or that the modem doesn't allow the console's MAC address. Is there a way that I could fix that?

[ac13farmy]

didnt work, followed all the insructions and still says i dont have a sufficient MTU setting. tried it 5 times now and still nothing.

[dfriedel89]

It worked fine with an older version of pda net but now i'm constantly running into the MTU error with version 3.02. Please help.

[joe735]

Consistently running into MTU issues. Using EasyTether, but all other settings are correct, even set the Local area connections MTU to 1500 through the command prompt.

[MrDertay]

I cant for the love of me get on. I test connection it dont even go to internet let alone try xbox live. I followed the steps over and over... when I do the settings on the PC for the LAN it forces me to use a DNS servers isntead of leaving it on automatic and Im using windows 7 32bit

[BKaneda]

Why is there no response to the people that are having MTU problems. It seems to be something that a lot of people are running into...

[Fightstats]

It wont connect to Xbox Live due to a low/high MSU setting. Help?

[Streakingmonk77]

Have you ever done this with connectify or some other hotspot program? I would just like to avoid cables if i can.

[n00bminecraft]

the dns servers don't work for me

[SNova007]

will not allow me to use the same port number (53) on xbox 2 even though it's on UDP. Suggestions?? Also.. I went out and got the wireless router for my xbox360 is there a way to use that instead of the ethernet cord???

[halo3357hiii]

@jeremyscottraines i have the same connection, Slow as !@#$ but it uses 30 Mbs per hour so youll be fine..

[206RideBMX]

can you make a newer video using pdanet 3.02 because im finding it difficult to do. (:

[deadsexy1985]

@TheFallenmetal8 Hey I found a way...but you have too root your android..Idk if you want to do that...but I just rooted yesterday and I'm playin haha :)
