For example, I have a 2mb DSL line going from phone port - modem, which obviously gives me internet access.
How does XBOX Live work? What connection/s are used? When you're connected to XBOX Live does it act like broadband/cable where by you can use your phone at the same time etc.
Thanks. |
XBox Live is pretty simple to setup and use. All you really need is a subscription card (you can get 'em at Best Buy, EB Games, etc., or you can get one of those free trial cards that come with games sometimes-- you should have received one in your Madden 2005 box), and an Ethernet line running from your modem or router to the XBox (XBox has the Ethernet port built-in). Then you just start up Madden, go to 'game modes', select 'play online', and the EA server will walk you through the setup process.
I'm pretty sure you can still use your phone when you're connected to XBox Live, though online gaming is a bit of a bandwidth hog.
