    Get a faster connection if possible. Both of you using Live at the same time is probably too much for 1Mb.

    Myself and my brother are on the same router also we are using 7meg though you should prob upgrade to 3 meg at least

    Eircom's 1Mb is definitely too slow for two simultaneous Xbox Live connections. Heck, it was barely capable of giving a simple connection from my previous experiences.

    You should upgrade it if you both plan on playing at the same time.

    Problem is not with the 1mb downstream but 128kb upstream. This might be to slow, specially if you're hosting games. 3mb package has 384kb upstream.
    Also if you're on WiFi (as far as I remember you are ;)) check if your neighbours are broadcasting on the same channel. If so, change it that you will have at least 3 channels difference from either side.

    Get a faster bb connection man 1mb is substandard if your using two consoles on the 1 connection
