just wondering exactly how this works. i know it connects straight to a broadband connection, but.....

im living in student-halls and have managed to "hack" into the university network (ie surfing for free ). to avoid detection, we "abide" by various regulations and practices etc. so to intent and purposes we "are" legit.

i have an ethernet connection in my room...could i connect my xbox through this?

i really want to play PGR with peter and trooper etc etc!

say it is so.

yes you can.

You might need a hub or a router.

Ive got a chaep 4 way netgear Hub.

It works a treat

Do it, then post a note and Ill give you a game.
I had an amazing session racing ferraris on the full 14mile Nurburgring this afternoon..,...honestly its awesome. Pisses on GTurismo from a height and a half.

Info on all the standard ways of connecting here. L33t hacker types may find others

edited to say - you will need to buy the Live startup kit. £40 from a store, or you can probably buy online at the site above.
