Hey Maccabi,
Quick question for you, on my router I can set QoS to prioritize anything, port/IP etc.
Anyway is it better to just set your Xbox IP including all ports to have higher priority over everthing else or should I just set it to prioritize port 3074?
Should I select UDP or Both?
Thanks!

I have an open NAT and high ping levels (<25 MS to most of the Eastern US).
Do I still need to forward ports and/or mess with the MTU?
Why? (short, top-level answer for a non-technical person would be great.. i.e. "it will reduce your lag", etc.)
Thanks!

Thanks... I was kind of hoping someone could answer my question above...
btw, I connect wirelessly to a airport extreme router... modem is from comcast, service is decent bandwith (10 down, 4 up I think?)
I did ping test, usually get very good results for packet loss, ping, etc.
I do tend to play with a geographically diverse group though.. .I'm in New England, but I regularly play with guys in Georgia, Arkansas, California, British Columbia (and way up there in the boonies of BC), etc., as well as local guys (some just 10 miles from my house).

Mac's been sick for a while, that might be why he hasn't answered.
If I were you, I'd forward the ports, but I have no idea on these matters:P
I know he's seen your post;)
Good luck!

To Codhq
a travelling circus came
they bought an intelligent elagaphant
and nellie was her name
one dark night
she slipped her forum chains
and off she ran to intwerwebzstan
and was never seen again..
Oooooooooooooooooooooooo (all together now)
Nelly the elagaphant packed her trunk
and said goodbye to the forum...
off she went with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
Nelly the elagaphant packed her trunk
and trundled back to the interwebz...
off she went with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
The head of a new site was calling
far far away
they met one night in teh silvery light
on the road to mandalay
Nelly the elagaphant packed her trunk
and said goodbye to the forum...
In the words of Mr Adams (RIP) "So long and thanks for all the fish"
