In 2000+ games I have gotten host around 10 times with Sbc Yahoo DSL. So dont try that.

I have that and i get host all the time...i mean 7/10 MM Games.

With Dsl it depends on how close you live to the phone company and the type of wiring you have in your house.

How fast are your downloads? Mine is about 72kbs max, usually less.

I know, we could get Cox cable, but we have a year contract with SBC, plus I dont pay for the internet, so I have no say in it. Next year, I will be in college, so hopefully the T1 they have will suit me.

600kByte or 600kbit? If it's Byte then that's damn fast man!

I know this is an uber noob question, but I rarely play on LIVE because I can't get broadband at my house. (I play on occasion from work or a friend's place.)

How do you tell which person has host? I've seen it posted before, but I don't remember.

as soon as the games starts hit the back button and the first persons logo to show up is host.

It used to be a whole lot easier. You would have your whole team hold black (?) at the beginning of the game, and if someone on your team had host, their would be a blue square around their symbol above their head.

Then standby was invented and everyone exploited this.

This is why I ccouldn't do it anymore...I knew there was some indicator. Too bad standby noobs ruin it.
Thanks, fellas.
