hm, it does work with 90dns, but i couldn't get it working with DHCP, it throws out an error (2019-1308)trying to connect to lan in-game...it only works for me when i manually set the ip , mask and gateway..wich is kinda inconvenient, cos i have to switch between my "standard" connection for ftp and xkai one.. both with 90dns at least tho

2019-1308 error?

I've noticed this happening when you have more than one network set to auto connect on the Switch that you're capable of connecting to, e.g. wifi AP + LAN adapter connected, or when XLink is intercepting DHCP over wifi.

You have to start Xlink anyways and it remembers static values.
No big issue long term.

Doesn't work for me at all, started with the web UI not opening (127.0.0.1 refused to connect. Tried with my ip as well, didn't work), thought maybe I should try setting up switch first, nope, the DNS is incorrect it says on switch.

 

[S3phi40T]

Will this be fixed soon? Really want to play some matches with some people. Haven't been able to connect to anyone at all today.

Use static IP. It helps a lot.

yeah, that is the error im getting when trying to connect with dhcp...but the only autoconnect option is checked on my local network..my manually created one for xkai is off, xlink also sees the switch with no issues

Yeah I did, it's not working, like I said even the web UI is not opening let alone anything else, and the user interface is constantly stuck on "Looking for Kai Engine" even though it's on.

So Smash in not working right?

it has no lan mode

On Windows? Right click the xlink icon in the system tray and launch the ui from there. If you dont see the icon, the engine isn't running.

I see the icon, I launch the icon, but it keeps saying : "Looking for Kai Engine" even though the Kai Engine is running.

Hmm, close XLink via task manager and restart it.

Tried that a bunch of times, tried restarting the pc, uninstalling npcap and installing winpcap, with winpcap the engine refused to launch at all. Went back to npcap at leas the engine launched with it. Whitelisted engine in the anti-virus and windows firewall, it's not working. Lan-Play works, but this one doesn't.

Try going into configuration and put your credentials.
Also try swapping from gui app to web.

Tried both the app and the web, web browser just gives me " 127.0.0.1(also tried my actual ip) refused to connect", and the app is stuck on "Looking for Kai Engine" (and yes the engine is running I can see it in task manager and the icon bar), so I actually can't enter my credentials.

127.0.0.1 is LOCALHOST - ie: it is the machine you are running it on, it will never talk to any other networked devices.

so the app / web UI cannot see your NIC (network interface connector ) on the PC. If you look in control panel / network / change adapter settings - is there an entry for LOCAL AREA CONNECTION? There may be many (especially with VPN etc. software installed) you're looking for one which will have some info about the chipset - most common is Realtek. eg: mine is Realtek PCIe GBe Family Computer.

If you click on it it should open the Local Area Connection Status window, select DETAILS at top half of window - it should have info like this:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix: home
Description: Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
Physical Address: ‎E0-D5-5E-xx-yy-zz
DHCP Enabled: Yes
IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.3
IPv4 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Lease Obtained: Wednesday, 12 December 2018 10:52:51 PM

IPv4 Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
IPv4 DHCP Server: 192.168.1.1
IPv4 DNS Server: 8.8.8.8
IPv4 WINS Server:
NetBIOS over Tcpip Enabled: Yes
IPv6 Address: fd30:7496:3ab3:4f00:787c:a855:4e1d:cca2
Temporary IPv6 Address: fd30:7496:3ab3:4f00:901a:1d12:2563:1669
Link-local IPv6 Address: fe80::787c:a855:4e1d:cca2%23
IPv6 Default Gateway:
IPv6 DNS Server: fe80::1%23

xx-yy-zz are not valid numbers in the Physical address, I removed them, just in case of security issues.

you should be able to see the IPv4 address for your NIC and also from memory the physical address needs to be entered into Xlink KAI (been a while since I set it up).

I remember using xlink kai on the first Halo on OG xbox...

I followed their tutorial in the op, nowhere it mentions that I need to enter my Physical Address, also the tutorial says that to connect to the web UI after installing the engine and running it, and I quote : "This can also be accessed by typing in '127.0.0.1:34522' into the address bar", and it doesn't work. I tried my ipv4 address as well, it doesn't work.

I haven't set up Kai in a long time - nothing to do with his channel, but I'm literally just watching a youtube video by modzvilleusa so maybe that might help?
