You could connect, but no chance at all of playing with others online. You need a highspeed connection for Live, & that's a very low speed. Sorry.ColoradoKindBud
Err what, no.
He will not host games but playing with others is more than possible. Most games would work with 56k if it where not for the occasional burst-downloads.
You can compare it with fps-servers on pc:s, clients seldom go higher than 56k but the server/host sends ALOT more.
You should be fine. I only have a 512kb connection due to my stupid college apartment's built in ethernet, and I play completely lag-free. You just won't be able to be surfing/downloading on the computer and on XBL at the same time, etc.
Edit: And like the above poster said, downloads will be painfully slow. Like a few hours+ for a demo download.
Depends on your upstream speed. I'm assuming that 256kb/sec is your downstream speed. IIRC, XBLive requires a minimum of 128kb/sec--64 each way. If your upstream speed is at least 64kb/sec, then you should have no difficulty.Can you connect to XBL Silver or Gold with a 256Kb/s download speed connection ??

That said, as plenty of other people have mentioned, don't host a game with a link like this. And for big downloads, it's perhaps best to leave it running either overnight or while you're doing single-player stuff.

It's true I've played online GEoW matches with 56k.[QUOTE="jelloblimp"][QUOTE="ColoradoKindBud"]You could connect, but no chance at all of playing with others online. You need a highspeed connection for Live, & that's a very low speed. Sorry.Bigboi500
