p.s) im up for some TOC gaming... only game i got which is compatible with X-connect is Halo.,.. but thats more than enough to keep me going for a while..

My user id in xb-connect is 'FizzA' so keep an eye out for me people...

[knowlson]

yep thats about it!

I used 2 ethernet cards in my machine one to the router one to the xbox using a crossover cable and worked straight away!!!

I have added you to my contacts in xbconnect fizz my name is knowlson on there also

[jamesholden]

Why do you need a PC?

If you have a router, just plug a standard RJ-45 cable into that and to the back of the xbox, as regards the PC's just put some £5 network cards in them and also attach them to the router.

If you have a router, then plug the Xbox directly into that.

If you only have a switch or hub then you might need to connect it to your PC.

They need a PC as they are playing the unofficial x-box live.

I unfortunately play the official x-box live as i didnt know about the unofficial stuff till recently. Doh.

Jim...you cant use a coughchippedcough x-box on the official live as you'll get banned like a mate of mine :D

[Bibbs]

You can use chiped 'boxes, copied games .. even hacked games on a hard disk ..

My logins are either "bibbs" or "australian_*****" .. depending on machine.

I mainly play Halo ..

There seems to be a problem with ntl vs any other provider though.

if anyone likes to play on the best games console (your powerful p.c) then i will happily send you some i.p addresses of my favourite COUNTER-STRIKE servers, i often play on.

could meet up and have a knife fight, or just chuck a few grenades at each other!
