    xbox 360 connections????

    Hi

    I have a question, which is the best way to connect to the xbox 360 live? Using ICS to a PC or connected directly to a adsl modem router?

    Thanks

    Tush

    I would advise against ICS and use a router due to the sheer number of ports it requires.

    If the router supports uPNP then it's a doddle as you don't need to map anything as well

    As it's a cheap alternative to buying a router in the sense that it's free and built into windows.

    that's "forced to for economic reasons", not "willing"
