me lad wants to go on xbox live weve broadband and a xbox i know i need them but i havent a clue how to set it up or what else i need and do u have to pay extra other then the broadband we pay for now thanks
The annual charge is £39.99 (or it was) and you pay this when you register.</p> pretty easy to set up, and all registration is done through the 360. Some people set it up different to others. You still got all the instruction manuals etc?</p>
yeah i still have them but my internet is in bedroom and the xbox is downstairs so how do i go on about connecting them both
yeah you have to buy a subscription to xbox live its about £40 for a year £35 from play.com otherwise. This website is useful http://www.xboxlivetheguide.co.uk/
You can get a wireless connector for the 360, which I believe is for this purpose???</p> All mine is done through a router, but my xbox is right next to the phone line. Quite a few others have 'live on here so maybe they have more info?</p>
You will need a wireless connection of some sort - the easiest option is the X box 360 adaptor which you can get in Game for £60. Then it depends what you have in terms of broadband. I have a wireless Modem so don't need a router. Just plug the wireless adaptor into the specific port at the back left of the X box and then use the menus to connect it. You will need WEP code (or similar) to allow your X box to talk to your router / modem etc. I am not technical in the slightest, but it is easy to do. I am sure we have a number of geeks who could advise you better, and would argue that there are cheaper options - but it all seems too big a faff to me.
