hmmm, what a terrible decision by the fools at Microsoft to make it online once every 24 hours. That is so dumb. So if I lose my internet for a few days then I guess I won't even be able to play games.

Do you own a smartphone? Yes or no...

Yes I do. 

While I know this is not ideal and may be considered jumping through hoops... your smartpphone should have a "internet sharing" feature and this internet would be based off 4G and LTE towers which hopefully have reception where you live.

So essentially when the internet does go down for more than 24 hours...which really shouldn't happen more than once every 6 months to a year in 2013...you can enable wifi sharing on smartphone and connect your xbox to verify?

Again, not saying this should be standard procedure, just something people can do in case of internet outage emergency for a long peroid of time.
