How to Increase the Speed of Hughes for Xbox Live

If you own an Xbox 360, you can sign in to your Xbox Live account using your Hughes Net Internet. This allows you to communicate with other online users and play a range of single player and multiplayer games. If your Internet connection is running slow, this can make it difficult for you to connect to games or cause you to experience lag while playing them. However, there are ways to improve your Internet speed.

Instructions

- 1
  Disconnect all other devices you have connected to the Internet. Having numerous devices, such as laptops and PCs connected to the Internet will take up bandwidth and reduce the speed of the Internet on your Xbox 360.
- 2
  Contact Hughes Net and ask to upgrade your Internet service package to a higher speed. Although this will cost you more money per month, it will increase the speed of your Internet drastically.
- 3
  Use an Ethernet cable to connect your router to your Xbox 360. Although having a wireless connection means you can play Xbox Live on your 360 from anywhere in your home, having a wired connection provides a better, and therefore faster, Internet connection.
