Have you tried using Google's DNS servers as mentioned a while back in the thread?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Anyone know how to fix a STRICT NAT on the Xbox One as i now get this after installing a trial modem?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Last resort, try factory reset of the X-box One.

Worked for me with the SH2ac trial.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Well i tried a hard reset before not sure if that is the same thing you mean, don't really want to delete EVERYTHING. :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

All mine had to go, factory reset.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Unfortunately i can't do that or i will revert to the old style dashboard, loads of people have the same issue, not tried my 360 yet.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Battlefront definitely not for me :(. I'm trying so hard to like it but the gameplay for me is just plain boring. Does look good and seems to be pretty stable online.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Have you tried turning off the wireless connection then adding a new one? That ficed my NAT issues.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I tried that last night and it still left it on Strict, strangely if i turn the firewall off on the new device it goes to Moderate, also a person has said even though it is being reported as Strict on the Xbox One he can STILL host games which isn't meant to be possible.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

A reset wil revert but as soon as you install the preview app the NXOE should install at next boot, as you're still on the NXOE release cycle.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Don't plan to risk it, more hassle than it is worth as the 360 is also displaying as moderate or strict and it never did with the normal SHs.

Someone has also said that even though their X1 is showing as restricted they can STILL host games which isn't meant to me possible if Strict. :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I factory reset my console after getting upgraded to NXOE and I didn't lose it. I think you need to opt out to revert back. You can factory reset whilst on NXOE and you end up with a clean NXOE. It definitely made my experience much smoother. You just lose everything saved to the console so make sure games are on external.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I don't really have issues with the new dash apart from MKVs not playing smoothly, but i can avoid that by fast forwarding 30 seconds.

Are you on the new SH too?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

No I have the first generation Superhub still

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Silly question, but is UPnP enabled on your SH2?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Yes, well it is on my Trial Modem, never had a problem on any of the other 3 customer SHs.

This is purely down to a new kind of modem on Virgin Media, hopefully a firmware will fix it.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Have you guys on the new dash been using the One Guide to change channels and stuff?

If you have never tried it or even never run your TV through the X1 i really recommend that you give it a go as it is the fastest experience at flicking through channels i have ever experienced and i think it is rather good.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

How would I set the TiVo up to run through the X1? Might give it a go tomorrow morning. Wanted to do it since I got the X1.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Think i followed the instructions when i got the Xbox, you basically have to plug the HDMI from the Tivo into the back of the Xbox in the correct slot and then from the Xbox to the TV then you set it up, although it was years ago so i cant remember what gets asked first.

You will need to tell it your make of TV Box though, try these instructions but it was dead easy.

Make sure you select 50hz in the settings or you will get a judder.

For the old dash board but it will likely be similar.

http://support.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-o...set-up-live-tv

http://www.techhive.com/article/2858...op-boxdvr.html

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Thanks. All I found on Google was US results, nothing for Virgin Media. Will test it tomorrow.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

It is really hard to explain it all and i may say it wrong.

1. Take HDMI that went from the Tivo to the Telly and put it into the back of the Xbox, in the labelled slot.

2. Then take the other HDMI from the Xbox to the TV HDMI slot.

3. Go settings on Xbox then TV & One Guide, One Guide.

4. In One Guide select TV lineup and put your details in.

5. Come back out and go to Device Control this is where your cable box should be entered correctly and also your TV should be showing your exact model if you have never done that before.

6. Come back out and check Audio & Video, make sure 50hz is ticked.

7. Come back out to the settings and go to Display & Sound, 50hz needs to be ticked in there too.

Then when it is all up and running you select One guide which should bring up TV then with controller(i use the media remote which uses Kinect) you can move the left nob to the left or up or down then you can change channels and generally get used to it and learn how it all works, you can even set channel favs, switching channels is so fast, well it is compared to my V+.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Tried the Oneguide yet mark?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Will try this on my xbox later

I solved this by giving my xbox a static IP in my router and opening certian ports, which I will dig out later.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Hit a block when I realised you need Kinect to setup the TiVo with console. Don't have Kinect so will have to abandon that. Thanks though for the instructions, will bookmark that post and save up for a Kinect.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Why do you need Kinect to setup a tv box?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Xbox One uses Kinect as an IR blaster for channel changing etc.

Without Kinect, the console cannot control the TiVo or any other STB, which makes routing the STB through the console rather pointless, as you can't use OneGuide and still need the STB's remote.


There is a way without Kinect, though:

Xbox One also has a port on the back for connecting an IR extension cable.

You'd need something like this:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...=sr_1_2&sr=8-2

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

You can use the Xbox controller to use the Oneguide, i do agree it is better with the remote which needs Kinect though.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

You don't need Kinect for the Media Remote as such - you need it for the IR blasting so that the console can control your TiVo / Sky box / whatever.

Doesn't matter if the Xbox One controller can navigate the OneGuide if there is no Kinect for the console to then control the STB.

Whether you use the Media Remote or the controller for the OneGuide, it's the Kinect (or separate IR extender thing as I linked to earlier) that actually controls your STB and other devices.

No Kinect (or IR extender) means that the OneGuide is pointless as you still need to control the STB using its own remote.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

On right I understand now, glad I have Kinect then as it is far better navigating a channel list than my slowwwww V+, wonder how I will feel when I get a TiVo though?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

So I could still connect the TiVo through the console, but use the remote instead of Kinect?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

You could as that is how i have always viewed tv through it, however you can't use the OneGuide so it will be just like watching normal tv with instant access to the console. I recommend it i cant imagine going back to just having tv and no console on.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I don't see the point without Kinect or an IR extender. It just means you need to use an extra remote (and more power) to watch TV, with the only benefit being freeing up an HDMI port on the TV.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Another update for the new dash was installed last night, still not fixed my MKV issues though.

Battlefield Hardline now available on EA Access.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

If there is anyone who opted for the new dash and hasn't got it yet, then expect to get it in a day or so as everyone who opted in will now get it.

When is the new dashboard & backwards compatibility come to us mere mortals :D

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Late November I think.

Have you never signed up for the Xbox preview? If not why not? Hehe

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

How do I sign up for the preview.

---------- Post added at 11:25 ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 ----------

I think I need a invite from someone whose in it.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

You maybe too late as i think they're slowing invites, i will invite when i get home although i think i did this for you months ago, check old messages.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Just invited you into the preview program, this doesn't mean you will get the new dash before it is released in November though, you should get a message about the program though at some point.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I don't think MS is taking anyone new at the moment :( It cut it right down last month or the month before due to so many people applying (probably for the BC).

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

You would have thought they would remove the 'invite button'.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

oh well £2 difference

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

- 5% not that it matters i was just pointing it out as i hadn't been on CDkeys in ages. :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Apparently the current build of the new dash has a bug where you cant format an external drive, for it to work it must be done before the update.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

In todays latest Xbox One new experience update there is an MTU issue which is reporting it as 510!

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Just set up the TV through the console. Some slight lag for me, but not a huge deal breaker. Also it's a shame that we can't access recorded content through the one, so I have to use my sky remote for that :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

You can set the console to go straight to TV in the settings if you want.

Not sure if there is a point of having TV through the console without Kinect and a media remote though as Matt said, i have both so it works well.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I've got the Kinect sensor. Can you change channels via voice commands?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Yes you can, whether you will want to keep doing that is another matter, trying saying something like .... Xbox watch Sky One

It should work, but you need to make sure you have told the console what sky equipment you have in the options?

You can also use the left stick on the controller to move up and down on the channels which is super quick.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Don't know where else to post this so any advice would be very much appreciated, my wee one wants the Xbox one for Christmas and I have been looking at the bundle deals from Argos which seem really good as 3 games come with it. My question is would I be better buying the 1tb with no games or the xbox one 500 with 3 games.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

The 500gb is far too small, so i would go for a 1TB personally.

However even 1tb is kinda small, if it works out cheaper i would go the 500gb route and you maybe able to purchase a 2tb external drive which is about the size of a pack of cards but thinner and plugs into the rear of the console.

This is the external drive i have and many others on this forum. You will have to do the maths on whether it would work out cost wise about the same, but you need the space for the games as they are 30-50gb in size and you get a few free games each month from microsoft with your GOLD account. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Passport-Ult.../dp/B00CSH1B4M

---------- Post added at 16:01 ---------- Previous post was at 15:53 ----------

Amazon are selling the Xbox One 1TB for £298 but without games, i think your son would want some games and they're expensive, so if the games are good you maybe better off with 500gb console 3 free games and a 2TB external drive which you can add at a later date.

What i do recommend though is getting EA Access this will cost you £20 a year but you get loads of full games you can download in that cost, which again will need alot of storage space!

http://www.ea.com/eaaccess/en_GB.html

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Your right he would want a few games with it and they are expensive.
Thanks SnoopZ think I will go with the bundle pack and buy the external drive at a later date as the Bundle contents: •xbox one console with 500gb hard drive •wireless controller •chat headset •hdmi cable •power supply •xbox one wireless controller •the fighter within •killer instinct •halo: the master chief collection. £384.99 whereas the the TB console is £349.99 with no games.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

See my edit on Amazon i would shop around on price for sure as 500gb will be filled up in a few game installs especially with all the games you get with EA Access(check them), so if you can get the 500gb £50 cheaper else where it may make you get an external too.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Will do SnoopZ.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Oh and register with cdkeys.com . They are often cheaper, as they only give you the download codes for the games. You can also get an additional 5% discount if you like their page on Facebook too :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Thanks MG.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Weenie check out the deals on the MS store, i will look for better ones but check the prices and what extra you get like controllers and games, you maybe surprised, don't rush into buying anywhere yet.

http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/...151024161036:s


This looks good and Limited Edition and in stock.

500gb console, 2 games, 2 controllers(1 limited edition) £309.99 http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/...ctID.311246000

Priced up the deal for you with an external drive.

This limited edition Bundle includes:
500GB Xbox One
Halo: The Master Chief Collection full game download

Wireless Controller and headset

£309.99

External 2TB hard disk £59.99 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Seagate-Expa...drive+for+xbox

Grand total = £369.98 so only £20 more than your Argos deal and that is with a 2TB external drive and 1 less game(which i am sure you could get cheap else where) i think it is a steal unless we can find cheaper.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I got the new Xbox One Elite this week, to replace my Day One launch console.

The Elite controller is lovely :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I heard it was awesome but can't justify paying £150 for a controller considering that is half the price of a console lol.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Thank you so much I would never have came across this deal in a million years so once again A BIG THANK YOU SnoopZ.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

You're welcome the console itself looks like a good price especially with the extra controller and if you get the extra 2TB external it'll keep your son happy, he can buy any other games with his christmas money!

Let me know if you go for this deal or you find something better?

You can currently get £36.75 off if you link to the purchase via http://www.topcashback.co.uk/microsoft_store/ offer ends in 2 days though!

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Yeah, it's pricey on its own, but the console bundle itself is a good deal considering you get the controller plus a 1TB SSHD console. I'd been wanting a new console anyway (my Day One was getting very noisy, and I'm on my 3rd PSU), so thought I may as well go for the Elite.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Luckily my console is still silent although I did pay for the 3 year warranty if something goes wonky.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

I have the elite controller pre-ordered , it's got really good reviews too , hopefully will turn up on Tuesday so I can use it for halo 5 :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

£120 is the cheapest i have seen it in the UK, what did you order yours for?

As SnoopZ says I also have a WD 2TB HDD it's easy to install.

I fact I'm planning on getting another one to install 360 games when the backward compatibility is launched.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

How is the Elite compared the Day One? I really wish Microsoft would trim it down and allow as to put HDs in.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

The New Xbox Experience dash is set to launch for everyone on November 12th.

Hopefully they will fis the stuttering media issue while playing MKVs by then so i don't have to use my work around.

http://www.neowin.net/news/new-xbox-...is-november-12

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

It's good, but I agree it'd be nice to have a smaller console!

I also wish that MS would redesign the awful PSU.


I am *very* impressed with the controller, though, more than with the console itself.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

What's so good about it? Any improvements if you're not going to be remapping the controls?

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

The build quality is *far* superior to the awful Day One controller. It has a true "premium" feel to it.

The paddles are *very* useful, even if you don't care about remapping other buttons.

e.g.

On Destiny, I have X and A mapped to the back left and right paddles, enabling me to reload or jump without taking my thumb off the right stick. I also have the bumpers mapped to the front left and right paddles, enabling me to use my grenades, melee, and super without having to take my fingers off the triggers.


You can choose from a variety of pre-set profiles, or create your own. The controller itself can store two.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Mine shipped yesterday so its currently waiting for me at home, can't wait to try it out on Halo 5 :)

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Yeah, I imagine that it'd be great for Halo just as it is for Destiny :)

I'll be making a Halo 5 profile for when I start it this week.

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

Totally agree with your comments , very high build quality, now have reload, change weapon and jump on the back paddles so I don't take my finger off the thumb stick, turned look sensitivity up a considerable way to allow for the longer stick which clips in very snug, overall very pleased with my purchase :). Took a bit of getting used to but had a game of team slayer and went 23-11 which is my best yet also had a 12-3 but the other team was garbage !!!

Re: The Xbox One Thread
 

All Games with Gold starting November 2015 will be backwards compatible and can be played on the Xbox One.

The first 2 will be Dirt 3 and Dungeon Siege so with the 2 Xbox One games we can expect 4 games in November.

I have been told that the reason it was a 3GB update is i would have missed 1, so going by the number it looks like i missed 2, i last updated at 3PM on Friday so they're sure churning these updated out quick, especially over a weekend!
