When u connect two Xbox's together that are in the same room or building, do u have to connect through lan or anything or is it just direct(cable out the back of one and in the back of the other)??
And do u use a normal ethernet cable or a special link cable just for xbox. And to just play using to xbox's without xbox live or gamespy.

If you dont have a hub or switch then you will need a crossover cable. If you know how to, you can covert a reg cable to crossover

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure, since I've never actually hooked up the XBox's when doing this, but I do know that you don't need to connect to the LAN, unless you want to link play with others that are on the same School Network, for example. The only problem with hooking up multiple XBox's is that you need multiple TVs to set them up to, obviously.

Its really not that hard to figure out. Just check the jacks on the back of your XBox, and I'm sure they are marked clearly enough to figure out what goes where and to where. Good luck, and if you figure it out, let me know. Same goes for me.

You know the cords that go in the back of the xbox... well there are 2 types... Regular and Crossover. If you use a reg, you will need 2 reg cords and a hub or switch. Otherwise get a crossover. If you connect more than 2 Xboxs together, you need a Hub and a regular cord for each Xbox
