Using Xbox Live with NETGEAR Routers
NETGEAR has Xbox certified routers!
Note that the listed, certified firmware may no longer be available; later firmware is likely to work, but is not certified unless listed.

There is no information on what will be certified in the future. But if an existing model does not appear on the product dropdown on
NETGEAR Home Page, then it will not be certified.
If using older routers such as RT311, RT314, RT328, RH348, RP114, or RP334, or if you have problems with connecting to Xbox Live, refer to the
Microsoft Xbox Troubleshooting page.
Other Troubleshooting Information
- Upgrade to the latest router firmware.
- Open ports 88 and 3074. (There are non-NETGEAR sources that say this is unnecessary, however it is.) For a description of opening ports, see [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]How is Port Forwarding Configured?[/FONT]
- The MR314 works with 3.26 firmware, using port forwarding.
- There is no known workaround for the RO318.
