+ | == Requirements == | ||
+ | |||
+ | a) Xbox 360 console. | ||
+ | |||
+ | b) Xbox 360 headset (for voice chat). | ||
+ | |||
+ | c) CTWUG connectivity. | ||

+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | == Instructions == | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1) Connect your Xbox 360 to CTWUG: your Xbox 360 must be linked to CTWUG to be able to System Link with other CTWUG users. Use a standard CAT5 Ethernet network cable to connect your Xbox 360 to your network switch or router (the same switch or router that connects your PC/notebook to CTWUG). If your PC/notebook is directly connected to CTWUG, you may need to buy a network switch to allow more devices onto your network (R150.00 for a D-Link 5-port 10/100mbps switch). Note: you do not need to worry about the IP address configured on your Xbox 360, just make sure the network cable is connected). | ||

+ | 2) Install XBSlink on your Windows/Linux PC: we use a application called XBSlink to link all Xbox 360 via CTWUG. Download and install the application from here: [http://www.secudb.de/~seuffert/xbslink/xbslink-download]. After installation, start the application. If your Windows firewall asks for network access for the application, click allow. Configure the application: | ||
+ | - Capture device: Local Area Connection (your NIC connected to your Xbox 360 via switch/router). | ||
+ | - Local IP and Port should be fine by default. | ||
+ | - STUN and Port can be ignored. | ||
+ | - Use STUN Server to discover NAT type: disabled. | ||
+ | - Use UPnP NAT: disabled. | ||
+ | - Use cloud server to check incoming port: disabled. | ||
+ | - Advanced forwarding of broadcasts: disabled. | ||
+ | - Sound notification when node joins: enabled. | ||
+ | - Always forward MAC list is not required. | ||
+ | - Chat settings: enter your Nickname here. | ||
+ | - Auto switch to chat tab and sound notification are optional. | ||
+ | - Check for updates can be disabled. | ||

Overview
System Link is a form of offline multiplayer gaming on the Xbox and Xbox 360 gaming console over a LAN (local area network). The purpose of this is to have multiplayer gameplay on multiple consoles, which allows for a non-split screen multiplayer gaming experience and far more players in one game than a single console can support.
Requirements
a) Xbox 360 console.
b) Xbox 360 headset (for voice chat).
c) CTWUG connectivity.
d) Windows/Linux PC.
e) Xbox 360 game(s) with System Link capability (see list below).
Instructions
1) Connect your Xbox 360 to CTWUG: your Xbox 360 must be linked to CTWUG to be able to System Link with other CTWUG users. Use a standard CAT5 Ethernet network cable to connect your Xbox 360 to your network switch or router (the same switch or router that connects your PC/notebook to CTWUG). If your PC/notebook is directly connected to CTWUG, you may need to buy a network switch to allow more devices onto your network (R150.00 for a D-Link 5-port 10/100mbps switch). Note: you do not need to worry about the IP address configured on your Xbox 360, just make sure the network cable is connected).
2) Install XBSlink on your Windows/Linux PC: we use a application called XBSlink to link all Xbox 360 via CTWUG. Download and install the application from here: [1]. After installation, start the application. If your Windows firewall asks for network access for the application, click allow. Configure the application:
- Capture device: Local Area Connection (your NIC connected to your Xbox 360 via switch/router). - Local IP and Port should be fine by default. - STUN and Port can be ignored. - Use STUN Server to discover NAT type: disabled. - Use UPnP NAT: disabled. - Use cloud server to check incoming port: disabled. - Advanced forwarding of broadcasts: disabled. - Sound notification when node joins: enabled. - Always forward MAC list is not required. - Chat settings: enter your Nickname here. - Auto switch to chat tab and sound notification are optional. - Check for updates can be disabled. - Click Save Settings when done.
3) Join the CTWUG Xbox 360 community: When step two is done or if additional assistance is required, join us on IRC to arrange a gaming session. We can be found on the CTWUG IRC server (irc.ctwug.za.net) in channel ctwug-xbox360.
