Ever since I have upgraded to AVG 2012, it will not allow my xbox 360 to use the media off my computer. I am unable to use Windows Media Center(WMC), Windows Media Player, etc.. When I tried to setup my xbox 360 to windows media center, the WMC set that the AVG firewall is blocking the connection between the xbox 360 and the computer. How can I fix this without turning off the firewall.

Hello Rainwalker,

Is this issue occurring when Allow all Firewall profile is selected?

Please add your XBOX IP into IP whitelist as described in this thread (similar issue).

Should the issue persist, please follow these steps:

1) Download AVG Firewall diagnostics utility
2) Run "avgfwdiagx.exe"
3) Press 5 to "Create diagnostics package"
4) Then please provide us with created diagnostics output

Thank you.

The Firewall profile is on small home or office network. I have set the Xbox IP in the IP white list, but there was no change. I have used the AVG Firewall diagnostics utility and the file was to big to attach so I used the other tool to upload it. the file should be Rainwalker394.7z

Hello Rainwalker,

Please confirm whether connection with XBox is working when AVG is disabled.

Also please check this FAQ for more information about how to resolve the issue.

You may also whitelist Xboxs IP (192.168.1.3) and see if it helps.

Should the issue persist please gather new diagnostic data as described in my previous post and provide us with them for further analysis.

Thank you for your cooperation.
