| ...because I officially have no XBL anymore. Well, I can still log in and look around, do Netflix and stuff, look at my friends list, crap like that. But what good is that junk without gameplay? Your thoughts and concerns are appreciated. | |

| Well that stinks but, WELCOME TO MY LIFE!
If I want to get live I teather 5 Cellphones and the satilite to one computer, then connect that though a shared connection to my xbox. If I do it in the middle of the night when usage is at a minimum I can sometimes get online for gameplay. | |

The signal still has to go from land to satellite, back down to the relay on land, then to the XBL servers, then back to the relay, then up to the satellite and finally back down to earth again. The relay being land based is where the problem comes in. They told me very soon, within the next year, they will have a satellite based relay so this problem will be eliminated and we can play XBL, yeah! I'm talking about WildBlue. Steve | |

| Sweet!, I'm gonna call M$ and wildblue for a timeline on it.
You use the five cell phones as one modem to be used for the upload and part of the download and then the wildblue for the download. I dont know how it works, my cousin set it up. | |

The Xbox person said they didnt know, and refused to transfer me to someone who would. | |

Well, I knew MS wouldn't know anything, it's a WildBlue deal. The guy I spoke to said the technology was already in production and ready to go, but they were waiting on the govt to give the permission. Since the govt regulates all satellite launches, you have to get approval and that normally takes 18-24 months. He said since they had already launched previous satellites, it probably wouldn't take that long, but most likely would be a year or so before anything happened. Of course, he could have been making all that up, but I will say this, it was not just a sales pitch to get me to sign up, I was already in the process of signing up and this was just a conversation we had during the whole process. He did sound very knowledgeable, as we talked a lot about satellite technology, Xbox Live, etc, etc. Steve | |

| Thats cool. That'd bring a whole new era about. I think any sort of cable system would start to become obsolete, almost like wired internet did. | |

| Im assuming your using verizon: Download this Software: http://www.vzam.net/download/download.aspx?productid=394Connect your blackberry to your computer (Either via bluetooth or USB) Connect to the internet via the VZ Acess manager software. Plug the Xbox directly into the ethernet port on your computer and in the network device center right click the blackberry modem and share it. Then go to live as normal. | |
