Caterpillar on release day -- I solved it

Hi Guys, After trying a bunch of stuff, I was able to fix the caterpillar error (interrupting game transfer to hdd) by tracing it to the fact that I was being kicked off of Live for some reason. Never happened before... but something in Destiny was causing it to happen. Long story short -- it was my old non-UPnP router. I had opened ports and forwarded and everything, but Live was never happy with it, and when caterpillar happened, I broke down and got a new router. Cheapo Belkin router, $30 at the supermarket, UPnP built in, plugged it and played it. Got through everything without a hitch, and nary an error since. So, if all else fails... try a modern UPnP router. Sethicorn

  • Well, a few days later... No caterpillar errors since putting in the new router, but I have been kicked out of battles a few times due to "connection error" with no code name. Did a bit more research, and have put my xbox into a DMZ, disabled the firewall, and opened/forwarded all the ports specified in Bungie's NAT guide. I have yet to try it again since making those modifications. I'll be trying it out tonight. I'll update here with results. (If I don't update, assume it worked. :).
