..but what is the best Broadbnd package?

With these considerations -

*Xbox live - it runs fine on it
*Not extortionate
*Main use 5-10pm, but certainly daytime as well at points...

I, personally, am looking at Bulldogdsl, as suggested by CM.

For that, [URL]http://bulldogdsl.com[/URL]
(Getting use to this tag lark)

Have a look around - it does seem very good indeed.
Particularly the prices.

Just hope they're reliable.

Dunno mate never heard on broadbnd.

I might get the xbox broadband but I dont know the price.
*Hint hint to everyone*

Ooh.
They've fiddled about with the site since last time I looked.
Lovely.

Thanks Azul.

Also, what does Xbox Live like as it were?

I think you're a little confused.

56k (a 'standard' connection, using a 56k modem. Most likely what you'll be on) is considered "narrowband", ie, low bandwidth. Which makes sense.

It's generally slow.

Whereas Broadband is.... broadband.
It's supermega fast, and uses optical fibre technology to send signals up to 40/50 odd times faster than 56k.

It's a lot more expensive though, and that includes the hardware needed and so forth.

What does the Xbox live like?
Quite comfortably, I'd imagine.
Though I suppose sitting on a desk all day isn't much fun.
Highlights of the day'd be getting controllers thrown at you, and getting kicked and so forth.

Hoho.

What is Xbox Lives 'preferred' connection speed?

At least you can all get broadband

*Sobs*

Ok thanks azul I am using 56kps which is very annoying for my internet games.
Why cant broadband be as cheap as narrowband then I wont have to be anticipating the lag whilest snipind on a ridge in delta force.
Damn people and servers and internet why did they have to put it on computers it was fine on books.
