Help with LIVE please - adsl2+? wireless?

Post by Darwi »

Some help please...

1. Apparently the house I have just moved to is ADSL2+ compatible... but the Bigpond site isn't very helpful in putting numbers to the speeds available. Is it going to make Xbox LIVE better for me?

2. I also want to go wireless... what exactly do I need in terms of modem / router that is best for Xbox LIVE.

3. Can I go wireless and adsl2+?

Thanks in advance...

Faster upload = better, so ADSL 2+ will be better. No idea on what modem would be best, but I use a Billion with the official wireless adaptor and it's great.

I went and bought a Billion 7300G modem / router.

I also upgraded my bigpond adsl to 8000/384 (thought I would give it a try before going down the path of adsl2+).

Managed to get the X360 on line with minimal fuss... although I haven't really given it a good gaming workout yet.
