Re: [Xbox] Re: need some help

i think u read that wrong, i said ICS is the only way to go, it will actually make your speed faster than your ISP allows and they can't detect it, trust me

OMG Proph, we just agreed on something! ;-)  Although to be fair, I only have my friends word that ICS was unreliable.   Personally I wouldn't even attempt it as I didn't think it would even work at  all for hosting games, which is pretty important.  I do believe you can also do it via bridging though which might be as  reliable.  But it still makes more sense to connect the 360 as directly as  possible.  Especially many people (not me, as we already know) do not have  the 360 and PC close to each other so it wont necessarily help.    As for PCs being on all the time - I still recon that's a minority.  Certainly  few people would leave a laptop on all the time which is what had been  mentioned as being potentially used in this case.  Alex.  On Tuesday 22 April 2008 17:11:08 PRoPHeTiZeR wrote:   
aren't pc's on all the time?  plus, using ICS is just crappy/laggy  Alex Atkin wrote:     
A friend of mine connected his 360 to wireless via his PC.  He recently bought the 360 wireless adapter and its MUCH more reliable and less laggy.  So if you want the best possible performance, use a wire. If you can settle for a little worse, use wireless. If you are DESPERATE to get your 360 online without spending any money, use your PC or laptop.  But it should be a last resort and its silly needing to have your PC on just to go on Xbox Live.

seems like i can't upload files, but paynestalker, when i get back from work i can email you a text that will tell you how 2 connect the 360 to LIVE through your laptop(its easier on 360 then it is on original trust me lol) or alternatively you can buy a £20-£40 wireless bridge (they generally use ethernet connection and some are made specifically for game consoles)  --- In Xbox@yahoogroups.com, "Eric Lee Charles" <paynestalker@...>  wrote:

   You can try looking through the xbox.com forums.  That's             
where I got          
most of my info when I was looking for an adapter for my kids'             
xbox last          
year.  I had a couple of older USB adapters sitting around, but             
neither          
worked.  I just ended up buying the MS 360 one.  Thanks, Nelson  <http://profile.mygamercard.net/nelzp> [image: nelzp0929]<http://www.goozex.com/trading/asp/join.asp?

on what's          
worked and what's failed?  I was reading some stuff on a burnt-             
out Linksys          
game adapter as to what had to be tweaked on it to make it fly,             
so hearing          
that someone's managed to use off-the-shelf stuff has me really             
curious!          
  Since the only real plug-in is the Ethernet on the back (or             
would USB          
work, anyone try that yet?) what adapters are out there that'd             
plug into          
that port?  Are we talking access points or full-out like             
router/hubs that          
are just turned into access points instead of being used all the             
way?  I          
have a pile of all of the above, it's older 802.11b stuff but if             
I found          
the way to make'm fly right then it'd be worth buying the cheaper models             
vs. the          
MS and Linksys stuff!  On Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 10:25 AM, Nelson Pacheco <nelson@...>

You either need to plug in the 360 directly into the router or               
buy a MS          
360              
wireless adapter which cost $100.  Some people have been able               
to get a          
normal wireless adapter to work, but it's one of those hit or               
miss type          
things.  Thanks, Nelson    From: Eric Lee Charles Sent: Monday, April 21, 2008 9:47 AM To: Xbox@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Xbox] need some help  what is up fellow xbox lovers  last night i hooked up my wireless router so i can use my moms
