Do you use a software firewall? What brand? Have you made any changes to it? No

My xbox is connected to a PC that is running Xlink Kai Engine, I´m trying to get my xbox listed in the detected consoles section with the diagnostics tool, I start halo from my xbox, go to System Link, but the button is greyed out and when I click it, I get this message:
ATTENTION:
You can´t play System Link games without first connecting to an active network or Xbox console.
Could you help me out of this??? |

Okay well Windows XP comes with a firewall enabled by default. Can you make sure that it is off and or set to allow XLink Kai traffic? |

You haven't plugged in your network properly otherwise you wouldn't get this. You use 2 NICS, so follow http://packetme.tk |

if you hold the cable ends in front of you and the colors match up it's a normal patch cable
if the green and orange are reversed, it's a crossover. |

depends, super cheap if you make your own. Super expecnive if you buy a gaming crossover cable
best bet is to just go to your local hobby shop, be it radio shack or whatever and just pick up a cat5 crossover cable. Even some place like Home Depot will have it cheaper than a gaming store. |
