Depending what you want to do... cable or dsl would be actually faster than a regular t1 line. A t1 line is 1.5mbps up and down. While cable modem's in some areas are already at 100mbps.
Xbox 360 could use a t1 line too... I would rather have my cable connection though.

the 100mbps limit on cable isnt how fast it acutally goes, it just tells you the maximum speed possible. If your internet really went 100mbps, you would be downloading at 12.5 MB per second, and I don't know anyone who has internet that fast. And you are mistaken. T1 is 1.5MBps+ not 1.5mbps. Big difference. MBps = Megabytes per second and mbps = megabits per second. 8 megabits per second = 1 Megabyte per second.
[QUOTE="IoIfaqs"]Using a T1 connection with my PS3 is so much faster then my friends Xbox Live connection with Comcast. 360 loses again. Using a $400 laptop with T1 will be faster than a $1000+ gaming rig on dialup.
may not even be the real lolfaqs, someone in the other tread started by the tc seemed to take issue with the name. if it is though his advanced persuasion and deduction skills as a lawyer are clearly shining through...

I am trying to figure out how that's the 360's fault. But, whatever...I never have lag on Live, so 360 wins again. :) Ok what's your secret? Im not saying its a live only problem, Im saying that on practically every game on LIVE and every game on PSN that isnt 1st party/published by Sony you get lag at some point, depending on the Hosts connection. On 1st party/Sony published games u get dedicated servers so unless the server crashes, the lag situation is great.
[QUOTE="IoIfaqs"]Using a T1 connection with my PS3 is so much faster then my friends Xbox Live connection with Comcast. 360 loses again. I lol. My cable is faster than t1. the only thing t1 has on me is that it's dedicated, however that still doesnt make it faster than my connection. At the same time psn and live only work as good as the connection. sooooo live would act the same way connected to t1

There's always going to be someone that comes in and ruins it for everyone else. You just need to avoid it.

People here tend to overexaggerate the lag problem, but every now and then you will get that one guy with dial up who decides to host a match :P
[QUOTE="V_Zarnold_N"] yeah the xbox got owned even though this actually has nothing to do with either system. this topic has to do with the guys isp and his friends isp. V_Zarnold_N

Yeah, I noticed text doesn't pass sarcasm well. And this is System Wars...
