i have an older computer i am trying to ftp with but it has a strange connection. the connector is approx 10mm wide and has 4 wires instead of the 8 wires of a normal ethernet connection?? can anyone identify which connection this is?

if you know the manufacture and the model of the computer you can find it easily with a simple web search. also, i dont think you can use other cable except a ethernet cable to connect to the xbox.

You can get an ethernet card if you have an open pci slot on your computer, then you can ftp to it.

Comp
-6-core 3.2 AMD, 12gb DDR3, Geforce femi 560ti, Running Win7 x64

Laptop
-Dual boot Win7 + Ubuntu 11.10 Gnome Classic

Yes it's easy,you just need to make sure you get the right card for your spare slot which should be PCI & not PCI-E,you just place the ether card into the slot, (there's a cutout in the card, line it up with the guide inside the PCI slot)then gently push it home all the way, then restart machine,if you have win 2000 & or xp it should be automatically detected,for other early OS's i assume you'll need the OS cd-rom ?? or not
