He's saying there's no Red/White for the sound input. He could get video with RBG but no audio.

So all of a sudden, after working fine for 4 months, my X-Box is constantly disconnecting from XB Live. Sometimes almost immediately after signing in and other random times up to maybe 20 minutes. WTF? The network is OK, because others using Roku have no issues. When I ran the tests last night, it seemed my network was OK, but it wasn't getting through to the interwebs consistently.

I am wondering if Comcast f'ed with the modem. It wouldn't be the first time.

Maybe your Xbox IP has changed? Double-check and update port forwarding if necessary.

I set the router up with triggering, so if the address changes, it won't matter. There have been some very odd Comcast issues and they are morons, I had two laptops, a PC two iPod touchs and an iPad all running trace route apps (like PingPlotter) simultaneously. Depending on the destination, I saw 30 to 100% packet loss. I chatted with someone who told me there were no issues in the router's logs and it had been functional for over 30 days. Since I had it unplugged for a while, prior to running the traceroutes, I knew they were completely ignorant.

I don't remember. That was early December. I probably can't find them with that POS UI.
