 |
|
I have Cute FTP and tried to transfer some music and video files to my modded XBox (Evolution X). I had no luck, even though it was a direct connection (laptop-XBox) and the IP was correct.
After many attempts, I went to XBox Scene and did not find anything that helped, or answered the question to my problem.
Can anyone help me? |

Is the Xbox at the Evox dashboard when you're trying to connect?
What happens when you try to connect to your Xbox?
Are you using a normal ethernet cable or a crossover cable?
What are you entering for your username and password when you try to connect? (I believe the Evox defaults are xbox/xbox) |

| Try FlashFXP rather than CuteFTP. |

Good point, I was probably assuming incorrectly that the OP was using one. |

| Yeah, it must be the wrong cable, as I tried Flash FXP with no luck. |

Forget flash FTP. Go with AceFTP. It's free and super-simple to use.
As per your problem, did you configure your IP address in windows first? For instance, I use 192.168.0.123 and my Xbox is 192.168.0.2. Ain't nothin' gonna work for you if you don't configure it each time you connect the machines. Also, I find that I must power up the Xbox only AFTER I change the IP address on the comp., connect the wires, etc. But maybe that's just my setup. |
