i need help! how can i system link a xbox in tj to one in the quad? only one has xbox live and we don't want to buy it for the other one. any ideas?

I think a half mile long ethernet cable might do it...

Have you ever thought about bringing the systems/TVs in the same room? It's more fun that way.

ya but i'm not about to walk across campus in the freezing cold anytime i want to play...

dude then you must not be committed to the game

Possibly XBConnect....but you might see some lag...

or xlink kai

but you cant system link past a local router

xbc ftw

Vaughn, how do I system link my xbox at my house...to the Halo happenings at your house?

That's what I really need to know...

Ya I have had good luck with XBC. Plus if you create private games and just UMR boxes in lag should not be a problem at all.

I have a question. Hypothetically(sp?) if both xboxes connected wirelessly to UMR_Campus could they see each other?

give it a try, i have no idea how the wireless network is setup here

The access point at Castleman is just a Linksys WRT54G plugged into the local router (its actually directly under the seats at Leach). I'm guessing most of them are like that. So my guess is no it wouldn't work.

EDIT::grammar

You're correct...most of the wireless routers are on different subnets so it would be similar to being in different dorms...and that obviously doesn't work.

Does anyone have a wireless map of campus? Like go wardriving all through campus and create a graphical representation of the different routers, their approximate positions and their ranges. I think that might be a fun project if it is even possible.
