Please log in for more thread options Hi, I just wanted to add a post to let everyone know that my problem is
fixed, and to thank everyone for their suggestions. Also, to provide info on
what fixed my problem to help others who might be having this problem.
Although I had the Windows firewall disabled, my PC seemed to still be
blocking UPD Port 1900 traffic. I discovered this by using PacketMon from
AnalogX.
I went into the Windows Firewall settings, to the exception list, and to the
Exception for UPnP Framework, UDP Port 1900. I changed the scope from subnet
to Any. Applied those settings. On my next attempt to add the 360, it
worked the first time. I hope this info helps someone else out there having
this same problem.
Thanks again for all the suggestions.
