OK.

1. Don't put your password for everyone to see Smile

2. Don't use XBMC while you try diagnose the problem
3. How did you 'allow' XLink in your firewall? - it's crucial
4. In the Kai Config. Tool, automatically select the network card your XBox is connected to.

I've allowed xlink full access in my firewall.
I've been in the game Top Spin using system link when I have been trying to diagnose the problem.
My xbox is connected through my Netgear router.
Everything works perfectly, except for it says Network Reachable: Not Yet.
It says xbox is configured propely.
I have port forwarded 30000 in my router to my computers Ip address. I have tried just about everything & it still says Network Reachable : Not Yet

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

When your network says "Not yet", what area are you in? Try and change to arena mode and see if it detects the network from there. And you are also showing KaiNIC=0, change that to KaiNIC=2 if you have not already and uncheck PAT.

I switched the settings KaiNIC=2 & I unchecked PAT.
I changed it arena mode & it says the network is reachable.
After I have selected the area I want to play in.
I put in the game disc & go to system link & it still show no sessions available.
Any ideas?

Thanks
