Just thinking, is the new Sky package - ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã26 for calls, TV & broadband, compatible - just what does Xbox live need?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think NTL used to do a "Live" package with 2 IP addresses (one for the Xbox & one for the PC), but pretty sure a lot of people just used a router instead, presumable with the Xbox in the DMZ, so it can see any traffic that is not routed to the PC.

all you need for Xbox live is a broadband connection.(but you might want a router so u can be on the computer and xbox at the same time).

 

 

 

i live in the United States, so i can't help you with specific companies, because they are probably all different.

According to every source I could find, all you need for XBox Live is broadband and an ethernet cable, the only barriers being wireless and satellite connections that will mess up your connection stability and latency. ISPs do not need to provide specific support for Live, since Live is designed to work with any connection that is fast enough.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Furthermore, Google thinks AOL Silver is compatible with XBox Live.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edit: One other thing I should mention is that ISPs firewalls can block the ports used by XBox Live, but this is quite rare and you can quite easily check broadband packages for this using Google (as above).
