Microsoft gets slammed a lot but my communication with them in regards
to my xbox and service has been pretty good. I paid for a year of
live service in January and lost my xbox in a car fire
(iam8up.com/fiya) in February. They refunded the full amount.

If uPNP is on, it should work as it's supposed to and the XBox requests
the
port forwarding from the router without manual intervention.

Hi All,
I've had calls from a number of xbox 360 customers that are having trouble
with game play etc. Very long lags, poor pings etc.
These calls are coming from customers off of multiple towers and even in
different towns.
No calls coming from Wii or playstation. Just xbox 360.

The games on those consoles are hosted (network wise) by other

Odd I can't find a ranking for Xbox live games. I am confident Halo and

does games p2p versus client-server, though.
The few games I play I always hear everyone or no one lagging. Of course
