Just set up Xlink Kai to try and play across my broadband connection.

I have a wireless broadband connection , but am on a wired lan.

XBOX connected to Xlink KAi through ethernet. Can detect XBOX OK.

In the diagnostics mode the Network reachable reads "not yet".

My ISP control the router on the hill and I have discussed my problem with them and they tell me they have port forwarded on a particular port 9056 on TCP and UDP as I have requested but it is still not reachable.

Is there any way for me to tell if the port forwarding is working. They have only recently set this wireless broadband service up and I dont believe there are any other users trying to do this. I have had no problems doing peer to peer stuff.

Can see all arenas and ping results. Does this mean it is working. XBOX doesnt see any games when it appears people are hosting an waiting. Being trying halo 2.

Any suggestions would be great. I can PM anybody my public IP and port if that will help.

Turn PAT off. That should do the trick.
