How to Hook Up an XBox Live to a Phone
While Microsoft's Xbox Live online system was designed for broadband Internet users, dial-up users still have the ability to access it. More steps are required to hook up to the system with dial-up, including the use of a computer, than with a broadband connection, but it will only take a few extra minutes to do. In no time, dial-up users will connect to Xbox Live and download videos, demos and more.
