Xbox live

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 8:09 pm

I have satellite internet. I hate it, but it's the fastest internet I have access to. I know that I can't play games with sat internet, but I thought I would be able to access DLC, patches, and things like that. However, when I go to the games marketplace and look for downloadables, it just tells me that the content isn't available and to check back later. I only have the free version of live, but Im fairly certain that's not my problem. As far as I know, DLC is available to free members. Any help you guys can give me would be much appreciated. Oh, and moving isn't an option for me right now, so I'm stuck with this crappy sat internet.

Fired up my crap-tastic AT&T DSL, started FO:NV and updated to the latest patch, no problems.

Check your network connections and/or contact your ISP.

I got the patch for NV. Im new to live, so I'm figuring things out. What about DLC though? Have you been able to get that? There were some games I wanted to download, but I can't get access to them. Oh. and my net connec is good.

Okay, sounds like you're on the right track. Now, most DLC isn't free, so you've got to pay to play. (Patches are always free)

"I can't get access to them" is a little to vague. What error or message are you getting? Is this DLC that you've already DLd or something that you' re trying to get now?

You can get DLC on the Silver (free) membership. So it's probably your connection.

I knew things weren't free. I am fairly new to xbox live, but I've dealt with it a little in the past. Based on some searching, I think I am figuring out the problem. Apparently other people have these problems. When I go to the games marketplace, I select add-ons. Sometimes, it gives me the message "content not available." Then sometimes, I am able to get a list of add-ons. Then I select one, say Dead Money, and a message and status code come up. The message says "Can't retrieve information from xbox live. Please try again later," and the status code is 807B01F4.
