Title: Xbox 360 wireless network adapter [ ? ]
Post by: psphacksntips on March 16, 2008, 10:42:13 AM: Hi i was wondering if the wireless adapter would work ex: hosting a game on gears of war, if it would stop/ reduce game lag for other players.

My speeds are very slow :cry2:

Download: 730 kbps (Kilobytes per second)
Upload: 134 kbps (Kilobytes per second)
Ping: 100
Internet Service Provider: http://www.earthlink.net (http://www.earthlink.net)

Ul and Dl speeds checked at http://www.speedtest.net/ (http://www.speedtest.net/)

Any help please thanks

Usually having a good gaming router helps too if your gonna go wireless

Not really, or at least for DSL. It's mainly the Modem, typically the firmware, you can actually mod a modem to download any from 4MB to 30MB (maximum), but surely your ISP will quickly catch on and you will not just loose your service but get a fee and a nice criminal charge as well....
