In Response To: Re: It has begun...(Halo + broadband) (Ferrex (Microserf))

: The vast majority of the posters in that thread, though not lacking in
: enthusiasm, are very lacking in understanding of how LANs, WANs, and
: networking in general works.

: I guess it is possible, with the right software, to use a PC to route an
: XBox's LAN traffic over a broadband connection, but you cannot just use a
: LAN hub, or have a router magically send non-IP LAN traffic over an IP
: based WAN.

: If anyone wants to try this, you're probably going to need two PCs, both with
: two network interfaces (one connected to the XBox, the other connected to
: you modem), and some software that builds a virtual LAN over an IP
: connection (I have no idea what kind of software offers this service...
: VPN). It's worth trying, but not worth investing a great deal of money in
: hubs and routers and whatever else you think you might need.

It is called bridge software. Not real just need to get the configuration right. I will be doing this but I am having to much fun playing XBOX to spend time finding more ways to have fun. I and alot of other people will get it working for halo. I wanted to play nascar heat that way but they removed the link ability.
