It depends on your upload (sending) speed. If you are on 56K you are severely limited. Think of each user as a drop of water going up a straw, if you have the swizzle stick straw, only one to two at a time will be able to be drawn up. If you have a fat straw you can get that many more drops up...

Your question makes no sense.

First, turn caps lock off, and don't post the same thing in more than one forum.

Second, I have NO clue what you're asking. You're talking about hosting Halo over Gamespy on your XBOX (which isn't even really supported, so take what you can get), but then you list your PC specs. Just what is the problem? Is it hosting PC games on Gamespy? Or just Halo?
