I love the work you guys have done already. My friends and I still really enjoy doing LAN parties, as well as coworkers doing lunch games. I think extended LAN support would be awesome!
Currently our setup is:
I think that if we were given greater freedom with editing the xlive.ini through the launcher, like setting a host IP to connect to, we could really expedite these steps and take full advantage of the different settings the launcher has.
Thanks!

Currently our setup is:
- Use a reference list of Ports and IPs of other players
- Launch the game with the launcher to login, get our login tokens and xlive.ini's updated with settings
- Exit the launcher (and never use it again until a new update)
- Copy the IP of the host to our xlive.ini
- Check we aren't using the same Ports (only do this once)
- Disable the firewall (only do this once)
- Launch the game from Halo.exe
- Connect to each others games
