Tiscali and Xbox Live

Bezzawezza (Elite) posted this on Tuesday, 1st August 2006, 15:16

does anybody use tiscali broadband for Xbox Live. I need to find a cheap ISP for broadband that ideally has a high donwload limit (ie uncapped). tiscali at £17pm looks okay but dont want to end up with it being slow in the evenings and weekends or incompatible with the Xbox 360 Live service etc

PS I have put this in the Gaming and General areas so I can get a better response sorry

Don`t kid yourself,after 2 hours of gaming you`ll get an FUP warning.

See if you can get NTL/Blueyonder cable broadband.

Bugger, I`m only 6months into Tiscali contract but have recently had a 360 and assumed that I would be alright on Xbox live when I bother to get it connected next month. I`ve only got 1MB aswell so does that mean I will knackered on it?

I think your speed is pretty much not an issue as long as above 512k but this whole "fair usage" thing bugs me.

I use xbox live every day and have never had a problem on tiscali 1mb.

Think fair usage only kicks in if you download masses of video files to your pc in the early evening.
