I downloaded Xbox Connector from http://www.xboxconnector.com, and I am having a hard time getting it to work.


It can't find my XBOX. I hear this program is a lot better than Gamespy because it's faster.

Can someone tell me how to connect what to what?
... I will give more information if you ask.

Well, first you have to have Broadband (cable or DSL).

Secondly, you need a 10/100 HUB or Switch

Finally, you need 3 standard Category 5 patch cables (you should have one already if you have a broadband modem).

This is what you do:

1. First, plug one CAT 5 cable into the uplink port on the HUB and plug the other end into your broadband modem.

2. From port one on your HUB, take a second CAT 5 cable and plug it into it and the other end into the back of your computer (into the Ethernet port - the only port that will allow you to plug it into, in other words).

3. Finally, with your final CAT 5 cable, plug one end into port 2 and the other end into the back of your XBox.

Download the free software and there you go! I am going to try XBoxconnector tonight...I already have Gamespy :)
