You can use xlink wiv non jtagged xbox 360 can't ya?
And the worst thing is dat no one is eva online on games except CoD MW2.

 

Yes , you can use a non jtag as well .

As for players ... There are a lot . There not all playing Xbox 360 games , but instead there are playing Halo 2 ( no ping limit ) .

I'm using Xlink only with friends & we ask each other if we want to play on MSN .

 

Windows 7

Can I use this on Win 7?*-)

 

I think its supposed to but I could never get it to work on 64bit Windows 7.

 

Sorry , double post during error on Safari Explorer .

 

Yes .
Here is how to get it working on windows 7 :

 

Tried xlink with mw2, worked fine for me . I'll give it another go, see if there's something going on

 

This sounds good , can modded lobbys be hosted and will the stats go on xbl when you sign back in.(cig)

 

No and no.

 

I was wondering is there a way to remove the 30 ping limit? It says you can only see games of players that have less then 30 ping

 

If you are playing an original xbox game on the 360 there is no limit at all, though if your playing a 360 game the ping limit remains, no one has or probably ever will find a way to get past the limit without a Jtag console.

 

Might try this

 

I was wondering, is friend's list an option?

And lets say, if my friends aren't online can I join others that i don't know?

Good program i think, maybe will try it out.

 

Thanks for this lovely guide.


I run into some problems though.

Problem: I can see the xbox mac adress, but it says neither xbox configured failed or a picture of the xbox. it JUST shows the mac adress nothing more


Dont know what too do next?

 

No problem , you should be able to play !

 

Anyone here wanne play some old xbox 1 games on Xlink Kai ?
I would love to play some good old games .

 

Can you use on a banned system?

 

I just discovered there's an OSX client.
It's like this month just keeps getting better for me!
