Alright, it might get a little bit complicated but not to difficult, anyone is free to use it, modchip is NOT required don't flame me and say that 56k slows down Xbox live, IT DOESN'T the only thing it will do I give dooba a chance to play on Xbox live. You must have a pc running WinXP Pro, WinXP Home, Win Me, Win 2000 Pro, or Win98SE

You will need:

A Router OR A Crossover cable-
(I recommend using the crossover cable, routers don't always work with this, crossover cable is also called a Patch cable)

An Xbox-
(duh)

An Internet Connection-
(This tutis based on how to do it for a modem, but you can also follow these steps for any internet connection)

An Nic Card-
(This is a networking card, usually built into the motherboard)

This is how the setup should be.

Windows ICS Connection



Connecting Using Windows ICS
Windows Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) allows you share one Internet connection with multiple devices, such as your Xbox. You need to use a Windows ICS connection (1) if your cable or DSL modem is USB-based, or (2) if it is an internal PCI modem (56k):

Scenario 1: USB-Based Modem
Follow these instructions if your modem is USB-based.
Scenario 2: Internal PCI Modem (56k)
Follow these instructions if you have an internal modem connected to a PCI slot on your PC.
If you do not have one of these two types of modems, you are better off choosing a different connection type.

About Windows ICS
A Windows ICS connection uses Microsoft® Windows® Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). Use ICS to set up your PC as a host computer through which your Xbox console accesses the Internet. ICS essentially allows you to use your PC like a cable or DSL router. However, you must connect your Xbox console through your PC, and always turn on your PC before playing games on Xbox Live.

Xbox Live is supported through Windows ICS for only Windows XP, Windows Me, Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows 98 SE. Depending on your operating system, the ICS software might or might not have been automatically installed when your PC was configured. The steps to enable ICS differ based on what operating system you have.

Steps will go in this order:
Win XP
Win 2000
Win Me
Win 98se

Windows XP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To use ICS to share your Internet connection, the host computer must have one network adapter configured to connect to the internal network, and one network adapter or modem configured to connect to the Internet.

Log on to your PC as Administrator or Owner.

In Windows XP, ICS is automatically loaded during installation.

On the taskbar, click Start, right-click My Network Places, and select Properties.



Dial-Up

1.) Below the Dial-Up heading, right-click you ISP (internet service provider).


2.) On the shortcut menu, click Properties and then click the Advanced tab.

2.) On the shortcut menu click Network and Dialup Connections.

Note: You can rename these connections anything you want.

4.) On the back of your PC, connect the correct cross-over cable from the network card with the red X, to your Xbox console.

5.) Turn your Xbox console on.
When you right-click My Network Places again, the red X should be gone. However, you don't have connectivity yet.

Note If the red X is still there, plug the cross-over cable into the other card and check to see if the red X has disappeared.

1.)In the Network and Dialup Connections dialog box, right-click the Local Area Network connection and from the shortcut menu, select Properties.

Sorry bub, but a crossover cable is NOT a patch cable. They are completely different in how they work. I know what I am talking about, I have 2 extra patch cables and one crossover cable, and unless you have a router or another device that can alter the signal paths, (so it doesn't matter which you use because it has auto-detect and configures itself accordingly) then you will need a crossover cable if you are going from PC to anything other then a router, switch, gateway, or auto configuring hardware. Otherwise, you need a patch cable unless otherwise stated.

[CowboyNinjaPirate]

don't flame me and say that 56k slows down Xbox live, IT DOESN'T the only thing it will do I give dooba a chance to play on Xbox live.

You're right... it doesn't 'slow down Live' however it does ruin the game experience for everyone in the room with what ever jerk offs try this.

I used to have a 150K connection that worked okay for live (not for hosting tho) and on a slow night my Bike on MotoGP would glitch and jump around the track like a bugger on everyone elses screens.

Its not worth using 56K it really isn't and it shouldn't be encouraged.

[ChiTownPlayer]

I agree using 56K would not be good for the other players in the LIVE session. Also the glitching will not help either and you might get some feedback sent back to Microsoft for cheating as this may eventually knock you off LIVE. Broadband is the way to go!!

[Don_Rico]

Broadband 4 life....
Hehe, just ordered 24mbit/s.

[SQ2 Sterk]

would wireless 1500/256 connection be good for xbox live

[Muthas]

The speed is enough but wireless, well, that could be the problem. If the connection is good with interrupting then it could be fine. But when your playing and someone uses a wireless phone turns a microwave on or something like that things could get laggy.

[taylor410]

Really? I have never experienced that problem.

[AIR MCNAIR 9]

There are enough problems with connections not being up to par as it is. PLEASE do not do this.

[DeadOneWalking]

Well, base it off the game. Some games only send like 5K if that over the net. (Position on the map, and the name as well as what weapon is held) Now, something like DOA 4, don't bother. But if I was stuck with Dialup, I would just use that for the market place.

[Muthas]

downloading from marketplace with 5KB/sec takes a long long time -_-

[DeadOneWalking]

Ya, I know that. But, if someone really wants something, it can be done.

[Muthas]

Including downloading PGR3 demo of 1 gig

[cskeller07]

do not run live on a dial up connection that is by far the stupidest thing i have ever heard of. it will take u 5 min alone just to sign into live let alone play
