First thing you'll need to buy is a broadband router...get a D-Link or Linksys with a built in switch.

Then once you get everything connected to the router, you'll have to set up the ports and install XBconnect software. That's it!

Yep I've got my D-Link ADSL 504 router today and it's working fine, I haven't tried to get it online with a PAL Halo as I here it won't work and I haven't got my US one any more shame really

I'll be on there soon bring on the PSO and I'm down with that

you can get an ethernet hub for around $30.00,or you can get a ethernet to usb adapter for whenever all you have is a modem with a usb cable,but that costs around $100 which is a rip off.

Spend the extra $20 and get a broadband router. A plain old hub WILL NOT WORK.
