I use pipex and xbox live but I have to say that lately the connection been right rubbish lately. Apparently though we are all getting upgraded to 1Mb if ur on 512 and 2Mb if ur on 1Mb service in March all the way up to August. Also for £15 u can get upgraded straight away if your line takes it.
ye iv heard about this. but im only just about to sign up to pipex. do u get an unlimited amout of onine gaming with the pipex service? because i spend a lot of time on my xbox.
I do not know what it like with 1Mb, but 512k service is fine. There is lag in Pro Evo 4 and Top Spin but they are well documented in most games forums to have lag anyways.
Services: I no longer receive cable services, I blame the inept accounts dept for that.

Re: xbox and pipex
I would not expect any lag on a 1mb connection unless you were in a game that is maxed out & playing with many from overseas.
the lag may not be your fault then.
i have just received the adsl modem from pipex and want to connect to xbox live. i have got an ethernet wire going from the computer to the router and from the router to the xbox. but when i come to signing up 2 a new account on xbox it is saying that the dns servers are not being received... could you give me some advice which may make it work plz
