hey,
Im wanting to go live on my xbox 360 but i have Bigpond wireless broadband.. the little usb thingy.. so it doesnt have any ports to plug the xbox in..
Ive tried following guides on the net on how too do it through a laptop.. with the laptop connected to the net and connected to the xbox, and bridging the connections.. but always seems too fail the xbox live tests.. The ip one.
so im stuck sad.gif
If anyone knows how to hook it up? or even if its possible.. could yah let us know
cheers.

hi brett im on live and the way that you are trying to set it up is not thw way to go plus you cant, what you need is modem router and a land line hooked up to the internet, then plug you modem router in to xbox and sign to a xbox account and it should work, if you want more info. just call on 0431878230 ill be glad to help

Cheers Mike

remember he has 3g wireless modem not just a wireless dongle. and netgear are the only ones that i know that make routers that a 3g dongle can be plugged into and shared via wireless or ethernet.

well i cannot get ADSL broadband at my house, so taht is the reason i have wireless broadband,
I know Bigpond has new wireless modems that create wifi signals and have ports to plug in cords for live ect. but that is $300 for the new modem

and the router paul showed me, i found was $240. so im most probably going to go for the Netgear router.

cheers.

WOW i never thought it would of been that much.... isn't it just a router with a usb port in it? haha
Im pretty sure its a 'N' router which means faster speeds? like 108mbps instead 54mbps.
