Requirements:

1. Broadband modem (cable, DSL, etc)
2. 3 standard Category 5 Patch cables
3. One 10/100 HUB (or Switch)
4. Download the free software from Gamespy called "Gamespy Arcade Software" and "Gamespy Tunnel Software" located here (http://www.gamespyarcade.com/support/tunnel_xbox.shtml) :)

Installation:

1. From your Broadband modem, input the first CAT 5 cable into it and the other end into the port on the HUB labaled "uplink".
2. From Port 1 on your HUB, input the second CAT 5 cable into it and the other end into the ethernet port on the back of your computer (it's the only possible port that it will be able to plug into).
3. From Port 2 on your HUB, input the final CAT 5 cable into it and the other end into the back of your XBox.

Now, you're set!!!

Just get on-line!! I strongly recommend learning how to use Gamespy before going to XBConnect.com. When you learn how to use it, which is very easy, by the way, then download XBConnect by simply going to www.XBConnect.com
