    I barely got internet so i've never played online with my xbox. I don't know what I have to do or what I need in order to start playing online. All I know is that I have cable modem and that I really want to play online. So if anybody can help me, I would really appreciate it.

    Hook up your xbox directly to the modem if you dont have a router with a ethernet cord.Follow the steps on the Xbox,simple enough.The only thing I dont like about using Live on an Xbox 1 is that you have to put a Credit Card on it

    Why do I have to use a credit card? Will my game not work without a credit card?

    If you have a prepaid card of $50 then they wont charge your credit card.But even if you do have a prepaid card you still have to register a credit card

    Wow, you have to pay extra just to go online for Xbox live?

    That's sorta a rip-off. You already have to pay just for cable alone...
