go to www.xbconnect.com and look for the instructions.

XBC is tunneling software that lets you play others over the internet on your xbox. Its like having a LAN over the internet.

Spunds really complicated, and somewhat illegal, but what the heck, u can try.

Step one:
Download current version of XBConnect from the downloads page by clicking here.

Step two:
Install XBConnect using the self installing archive to a destination of your choice. Be sure to install Winpcap which is also included in the XBConnect install.

Step three:
Turn on your Xbox, and choose a system link game of your choice. Proceed to the "Looking for games screen" which is usually found in multi player or online play menu. Stay at this screen, XBConnect needs this screen in order to detect your Xbox.

Step four:
Assuming you have already created an account with XBConnect, login and on the top menu, select Options, General Options. With the Xbox still in the "Looking for games screen" click the FIND button in order to detect your Xbox.

Note: Depending on the system link game being used, it may be necessary to refresh the "Looking for games screen" in order to detect your Xbox.

Step five:
Once your Xbox has been successfully detected, feel free to setup your other options to meet your personal preference. When you are ready to give a game a shot, select the "Refresh" button located on the left hand side of XBConnect. Find a server based on the game you are looking to play. Remember the lower the ping the better the chance of having a smoother game.

Step six:
When the host has opened the game, it will then appear on your TV. Join the game and enjoy.


Thank u XBC

Not illegal. They didn't steal anything to make it, and they don't infringe on Microsofts profits...trust me.
