I'm sure someone here knows how though.

My 360 has not yet been banned and I'd rather like to keep it that way. At the moment, my secret involves keeping the ethernet cable unplugged ;)

The down side of this is that I stream a lot of media through the xbox and currently have to disconnect my broadband from the phone line each time I want to watch a video streamed from my NAS.

But it occurs to me that Live must use a specific port or that I should be able to tell my modem/router to block the MAC address of the xbox from accessing the internet.

So, my question is: is there a single Live port I can disable, or is there a way of blocking the 360 entirely... while still allowing local area network access?

EDIT (a couple hours later):


Right. Solved my own problem.

Set a static IP and then blocked all ports for that IP on my modem/router.

Xbox connects to the NAS and all other LAN items, but testing Live connection on the box itself comes back as a fail even for detecting the local network.

I also have an unmodded (and unbanned) xbox360 with a HDD that has my xbox live gamertag, let's call it GamerTagClean.

I want to know if I can do the following safely, without screwing up GamerTagClean:

1) Create GamerTagJunk.
2) Move HDD to banned xbox360
3) Play games offline on banned xbox360 using GamerTagJunk
4) Move the HDD back to my unmodded xbox360
5) Play xbox live with GamerTagClean

I've read in other posts about people having saved games,data,etc. corrupted on their HDD once they've been banned. I'm just wondering if the corruption is done at a gamer tag level or the HDD level.

Obviously I don't want to try the above scenario if it will screw up my valid GamerTagClean and my ability to save games and download content to my HDD when using my unmodded xbox.

Does anyone have any insight to this?

I really, really, really do not want to corrupt GamerTagClean, but would still like to be able to save games on the modded xbox with GamerTagJunk. ]]> Xbox 360 Support SuperMarshall http://www.se7ensins.com/forums/xbox-360-support/157334-effect-gamertags-moving-hdd-between-banned-and-unbanned.html http://www.se7ensins.com/forums/xbox-360-support/157268-get-banned.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 02:14:35 GMT so i have unlocked a couple achievements on some games like 10 at the most but not all at once. i also hexed my gears rank from 22 to 100 but ive... so i have unlocked a couple achievements on some games like 10 at the most but not all at once. i also hexed my gears rank from 22 to 100 but ive reached 24 about 4 times because i would reset my level. and now i hacked a achievement but it didnt give me the award for it and now im worried attention will be drawn to me. should i worry? please help :( ]]> Xbox 360 Support Fallentrooper http://www.se7ensins.com/forums/xbox-360-support/157268-get-banned.html http://www.se7ensins.com/forums/xbox-360-support/157262-please-help-fast.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:47:57 GMT I have tried everything, but I can't seem to get out of this one party screen.

I've had the same settings for the past 3 months and I'm sure nothing has changed. I have my connection bridged with my xbox and pc. xbox>Pc>Router and I'm on my pc right now. The fact that I can get online with my computer but not my xbox makes 0 sense. Has anyone else had any trouble? I'd call support but wtf do they no. ]]> Xbox 360 Support Doeboy278x http://www.se7ensins.com/forums/xbox-360-support/157256-cant-connect-xbl.html
