How to tell if your network cable is a crossover or straight

If you are linking the original Xbox to your PC you need a crossover cable. If you are linking your Xbox to a hub/router or modem you need a straight through.

Got a cable and not sure which you have, this may help:-

 

 

The Xbox 360 uses a network card that supports auto-uplink (or MDIX) so you can use a normal "straight" Ethernet cable (like the one that comes with the premium system) to link Xbox to Xbox or Xbox to PC and it will cross the connection for you. So no matter what you connect the Xbox 360 to you do NOT need a crossover cable.

Would you like to be able to write your own game & router reviews on this site?
