Heres a little explanation:

Where I work, I stay up here for 2 weeks at a time. You stay in a place kind of like a Hotel, and you pay for your internet.

The way you get internet, is you plug your laptop into the modem via ethernet cord, and open up your IE (or Firefox for me) and it comes up as the first page being your registration and pay for internet here.

As you pay for it, it remembers your laptop, so if someone else were to come in with a different laptop, they would also have to pay for the internet, which is totally bogus......

Here is my question. How would I go about getting access with my 360, so that I can have it recognize that and play on live?

Besides bringing a router up with me and setting that as the main computer and just branching off of that... are there any other options?

Thanks

Sorry Wildman I just saw this after your last post. Your best bet is to use a router and try it that way. From the sound of it it is recording your computers MAC address (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAC_address) which would allow the service to keep tabs on different computers. I'd try it with a router because I'm not sure how you'd go about entering your information in on the 360.

Thanks Clipse, I will try that... but it will have to wait until my next hitch up here. So I can get home, to get a router....
