hey, well in less than a week in getting a chip and a larger hard drive put into my xbox so i wanted to get the right things to ftp into it, i was wondering if i could do it using my thompson speedtouch 530 modem as it has a port in the back that looks like it cud be used but i might be wrong, if i couldnt use this how else would i ftp into it?

You can FTP into it by connecting a crossover cable between your computers NIC to the xbox or by connecting the xbox to a router with a patch cable.
I would recommend downloading AID and using that to install all your files, as this will likely be much easier in the end. _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide

Do you have a network cable between your computer and your internet modem? If you do, you plug it in there on the pc _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide

that picture is way too blurry to tell. Can you get another? And try to resize the image, thats huge. Or just crop out the relevent part of the picture _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide
