Might just be a load of bull, but my dad says it was on TV that a piece of software has been developed that allows any modem to work 5 times faster than was currently thought possible. So 56 K modems with the software can reach around 250K.

Would that be fast enough to work on Xbox live? And if not should Ms not allows people witht he software to use Xbox Live? I mean, it would be alot less hastle to get the software than getting Broadband and the increased costs.

That is- if the software exists. Anyone know anymore about it?

PS- Its getting way to quiet in here.

dunno what the other replys said (i can't be bother to clikc back and look) but anyway it's rubbish 56k can only do 56k. i won't bore you as into why but it just can't do it.

and even if it could do 256kbp (which it can) it still aint fast enough as you need a 512k connection for x box live.

No you dont, minimum requirment is a 256K/128K, meaning 256 Download and 128 upload. In America there lowest form of DSL is 384/128. If you have a 512/256 connection which is standard here then you will have more than enough speed to play lag free.
