Anyone on here with Wanadoo Broadband? They've got a reasonable deal on at the moment, but I want to know if it'll work with Xbox Live?

Also, the price I'm looking at has a limit of 2GB a month which I know is quite low, but I won't be using Xbox Live a huge amount - perhaps an hour a day, probably not even that to be honest. Will this limit be enough?

Cheers.

True I guess.

The Wanadoo offer was 17.99 with free off peak phone calls as well. I deally I'm looking at under 20.00 a month.

That doesn't mean anything.

How much are you planning to spend on BB per month?

I doubt I'll be playing as much as an hour per day to be honest. But I have no idea how much data Xbox live uses.

Wanadoo are on Xbox.com as a recommended BB supplier, so I assume that means their speeds are acceptable.

Wanadoo are too restrict you can only download the minimum and if playing live an hour a day only or they will auto change your account into the heavy 30gb - £28.99 per month, Don't register with wanadoo I only have 3 months left to cancel my account.

Xbox Live needs a decent upload speed to be decent.

128Kbps upload is really the minimum you should be hoping for.
