not on live, live doesn't support dial up at all. he's probably using kai or some live alternative. and that wireless DSL he's talking about is probably similar to the wireless plans that verizon offers here in the US for laptops (unfortunately they aren't very quick sad.gif)

XBL cannot detect what kind of connection you have.  What he is doing is using a Ethernet to dial up converter.  You can do this, and you can log onto XBL.  Though i would not recommend playing games on live this way.

it doesn't have some minimum bandwidth throughput requirement? i'm surprised the server doesn't drop people who upload/download no faster then 5kbps

We have long range wireless broadband in our town.  You have to pay for an antenna but i think the speeds are good from what i hear.  in our town there a few mountians around so they place the big antennas for the town on them.  I just like dsl better, good upload bandwith wich is good for games.

I havent tryed 360 on Xbc yet, dont see the point, i guess if i had dialup i would though.
