DSL Connection issues - HELP!

[bahn]

dude. sbc yahoo is apparently the ONLY compatible service for Xbox Live,...and Sprint's DSL service is anal. won't offer the service if you have a different local phone provider. even earthlink is being teh ghey!

You can try this:

http://www.easternctcable.com/index....hspeedinternet

That seems to be your cable provider for New London Connecticut, they have a broadband service but you will need to check with them to see if is available in your area

I HAVE EASTERN CT CABLE AND THEY DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT PPPoE IS! I have been trying to set up xbox live for 2 months now and they are now help. Well I am going to try to configure it now so i can atleast make an account.

Providers are usually no help when it comes to getting consoles online, I was on the phone with Adelphia for like a half hour and still didn't get it resolved... then I checked TNL and someone here was able to help me out with my problem

Why would cable need PPPOE...

[bahn]

hm. yes...Eastern. I suppose I could use them, but I'd have to figure out exactly which modem to purchase and the right connections.

[Schlep]

All providers are 'compatible' with Xbox Live unless they use PPPoE. Even if that's the case, you could always buy a cheap Linksys router for $40-50 that'll do the PPPoE for you. (Unless the Xbox does do PPPoE? I've never had any providers that used it)

Well AOL BB is said NOT to work,...if you're talking to me.

SRK Blast doesn't have any money

[Schlep]

AOL doesn't work because it's running through a proxy server for everything. I don't know of any other ISP that does that, and I worked with 80-90 in Texas at one point.

[bahn]

yea. but i wanted to go online using that...I wish there was some tool I could use to get around that.
