  • netflix on old school Xbox360?

    so im thinking of getting netflix and running it off my ooold 20g Xbox..
    any pros/cons? does it buffer to disk and then run or straight stream online? how does latency impact it? my TWC cable modem is full of FAIL speed.. so if its going to be laggy and jump im not going to bother.

    it will work on the older Xbox's. I run Netflix on mine over school internet and it is shitty quality at peak times, but works great any other time and that's with 120 people sharing bandwidth. You should be okay.

      I have a shitty internet connection too -- 3u/1d and it streams just fine.

        We have TWC and stream shit all the time with minimal problems. With the old 360 you have to buy a wireless antenna that plugs into the back if youre not gonna hardwire it.

            i have the tWC "Turbo 15" package.. and to say i am less than impressed is an understatement.
            i average 2-8 MB/S.. and it is VERY apparent that they are doing throttleing to some streaming video sites.

            when i call TWC they say that speed is normal for the 15M package.. so i asked why isnt it called the 2-8 meg package then? their answer... " we have 2, 4 and 8 meg packages..."

            cable modem shared media is CRAP in my hood.. and there is no fios here. the ATT Uverse crap is equally slow.
