Re: Tether To Xbox Live!

You can use WMWifirouter and the X-Box WiFi adapter.

Here's another thread asking the same thing in regards to the Mogul-

Re: Tether To Xbox Live!

You could theoretically tether to your computer, then share that connection via ethernet to your xbox, as for a direct usb tether? unlikely

yea, maybe, but more likely than another system. for the most part microsoft drivers can interchange, so It's not a streatch to think that wmodem/inetshare driver for xp/vista wouldn't work.
wait... net share rely's on active sync (i think)
and I'm not sure if xbox would take a modem.

hmm, oh well, I've got insomnia.. and I never liked xbox anyway... taking RARE away from the rest of the gaming community.. shame

Re: Tether To Xbox Live!

I'm confused by this question. If you're interested in connecting to xbox live through a wifi connection through your phone, this is definitely possible with the wireless network adapter for the xbox. Please keep in mind that it is pretty much useless though since most games require full broadband speeds, so good luck keepin up with a lagging red team/blue team if you happen to get a connection in the first place.

Re: Tether To Xbox Live!

If you have the xbox360 wireless adapter, you can definitely tether as others have said with wmwifirouter. However the latency for cell phone data connections is usually around 100-200ms, which are upper DSL to low 56-k levels, if you happen to remember those days.

The bandwidth however should be more than enough, so you shouldn't experience too much stuttering in the game, but expect the 100-200ms latency to impact your gameplay and reaction time (i.e. dieing in halo when you could've swore you shot him in the face first). As long as you keep the phone in one place, the data throughput should be decently stable.

I've tethered my phone to my laptop plenty of times and been able to stream hulu and other sites while on a bus traveling 60mph

Re: Tether To Xbox Live!

For the love of God and all that is holy, if you get this to work, please do not play COD4 multiplayer. I hate when slow connections lag out a server I am in and since I pay for 12MB cable, I hate it even more.

As long as you keep it cool, it'll be able to charge faster than it discharges. The only reason it dies is because the internal temperature controller shuts off the charge when it gets too hot. I usually leave it near a fan or an AC vent.
