It doesn't really matter as long as you can DMZ your Xbox. It's a standard feature on most routers.


Cheers, Could you explain DMZ to me? I continually d/c from xbox live when playing Halo, and halo only :S

It stands for demilitarized zone. Basically it opens your Xbox up completely to the Internet so your router's firewall doesn't affect it. There's some tutorials on YouTube which I can't link because I'm on my iPad.


Okay cheers, I'll have a look!

The Thomson TG782T is my one of my favorites and it allows me to connect to absolutely ANYONE. Never again will you have to open your NAT and there is an easy to use DMZ option for that small 1% of the population you can't connect to.
You looking for a quality router? than the Thomson TG782T is the way to go!


Cheers! Do you think it's my internet or my router that causes me to lag out consistanly. Please note that my cpu does not disconnect when I lag out of xbl. Unless I get hit ofcourse.

Don't listen to Pigeon, the Thomson is what he has and I never find games in Arena with him because he can't port-forward it due to its ancient settings.

Netgear N600 or N900 if you've got a lot of money to spend, both are dual-band gigabit routers.
