Network Sniffing....
« on: November 14, 2002, 07:13:00 PM »
We've been doing some testing on #xboxlive.  I put a sniffer on my network.  During the network connection test I show the XBox getting its IP via DHCP, then setting up UPNP on my router, then doing a query for as.xboxlive.com.  It sends an AS-REQ to that IP and gets back a KB-ERROR packet.  It then sends a DNS query for macs.xboxlive.com.  It sends several AS-REQ packets to that IP with no response.

If you ping either of these servers you'll get 50% time outs (most likely just dropping ICMP) and 50% destination unreachable.  Ban or not, the servers are having problems.
