you can either use a wireless connection (think xbox can supply the antena) or i have mine running off my internet soceket in the wall and put a switch in to spread the signal. Think thats how its done, my dad set it up for me as that the type of business he does.

If your a hardcore gamer you would think diffrently ;)

Using a wireless connection and controller will seriously slow down a connection sometimes (not all the time) but I can garuntee you will be in a battle to the death and suddenly sigal drops and the next thing you know the yanks are teabagging your corpse...
