Hi,
Is there any game in particular you are trying to play? The reason I ask, is that there are only certain games which will work: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._with_Xbox_360

Cool.
What type of Xbox 360 do you have? Does it have a hard drive? If it does have a hard drive, what size is it?
Sorry for the basic questions, but I like to eliminate all possibilities.
Thanks,
Ross

Unfortunately you will need an Xbox Live connection to download it. It should download as part of the updates you will be asked to download.

Unfortunately that is the only way to obtain the update, unless you have a friend who can hook the console up to their router and update it for you.
