Randomly Disconnecting from Xbox Live

Hey there Pwnz! I understand you are having some issues connecting to LIVE. When you get disconnected, do you find that it happens when you do something, like load a game or app, or does it seem random? Does it disconnect if you simply leave it on the Dashboard?

You also seem to have tried a lot of steps, including UPnP. Did you also try steps for port forwarding as well? If so, please discontinue one of these, as they do not play very well together. Let me know if that helps, thanks!

I have not yet tried sitting in dashboard as sometimes it takes a long time for a disconnect but I will try that tonight, if I had to pin a time on any given disconnect I would have to say they happen the most during the switch from a game to a lobby. For example as a game ends and its taking the players to the lobby or as the lobby starts to bring players into a game, not sure if that matters or not.

As for the UPnP, I will turn that off and keep port forwarding - if that fails I will do it the other way around.

For further updates should I post in this thread again with results?

Absolutely! This is your thread and any information relating to your issue (changes, steps you've tried, questions you have) should go here. Let me know about how those tests go, thanks!

I have tried both UPnP only and Port Forwarding only and seen no results, I still seem to be randomly disconnecting

Alright, thanks for testing that out Pwnz! I think it might be best, given the number of steps we've tried, to start from scratch and work our way back up. Try resetting your network hardware and the console's network settings to factory defaults. Then set everything back up one step at a time until you get a working connection. Sometimes doing all these steps at once can be the cause for network issues. Let me know how that goes, thanks!
