Dave Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 What speed are you using, and does it work alright for online gaming? I might be stuck on 512kbps. Just done a quick search that suggests 256kbps is all you need, but wondered if anyone on here had experience of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen927 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I'm on 512k and when I was thinking of hooking up my 360 I asked around and everyone I spoke to said it would be fine unless I was hosting a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 512kbps worked for me for about 2 or 3 years until i got a faster connection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissy Bee Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Online gaming will be fine, not much data is sent back and forth while playing so it's only ping that's important (which will be fine on any cable set-up really). Updates and new maps will take an age though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maze Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Dave, at my parents place I play at 1 mbit connection (broadband) which is the lowest broadband connection available there... played fifa08 there and that went just fine Just remember to play wired and not wireless, it's a huge difference. I could even chat live with those I played with just fine. Hope that helps! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Nothing wrong with it, i used 512kbps for about 4 years and did all the downloading, xbox live etc everyone else was doing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 It's fine for browsing (and hopefully online gaming), just takes an age for downloads. Oh well, do it overnight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
