Answer 2

Two possibilities:



You have ICS set up wrong (or the windows firewall is blocking the X-Box - turn it off), or the X-Box is complaining that ports 88 and 3074 aren't being forwarded to the X-Box. If that's the case, you can't fix it - the college isn't going to forward 2 prime ports to you (unless you happen to own the college). (You can only forward a particular port to a single computer on a network, and there are probablyundreds of other students who would like those ports forwarded to them.)



You can always buy your own DSL or cable internet service.

Answer 3

you can't fix it. it's just telling you that the connection to the xbox is limited because it's slowed down to 100Mb/s with the xbox.



make sure you're xbox has an ip and gateway assigned to it or make sure you have dhcp services enabled on your laptop.
