Merry Christmas all....

Since Christmas we now have 2 xbox 360s in the house, we would like to be able to both play on xbox live and by system linking the two xboxes up.... what are my options?

Can we share the 8mb connection without lag issues?

Would the wireless xbox adaptor connect us through xbox live AND system link?

If I go for a wired connection to my router how many / which cables are needed?

Thanks all!:confused:

If you system link, I think you can play on live together... How far away are the 360s from each other?

You will need a router, which will need your WAN connected (Internet) also your 2 xboxes, can either be wired via Ethernet cables if they are close or have them use the wireless adapter which will require a wireless router, Yes you will both beheld to connect to LIVE and play via LIVE assuming you got gold and also system link will work over the wireless adapter even if LIVE was down or your Internet.

Also checking out xbox.com may be of some help to you!

Thanks....

I already have a wireless router.

1 xbox is a meter away from the router and the other xbox is about 10 meters away....
