Just thinking, if this mod detection is occurring (which I think it is).
It would be relatively easy to route the mod on/off behaviour via the LED on the Ethernet. This way as soon as the network is detected, the mod goes on - Thus avoiding accidentily playing modded games online.

my xbox is connected to a router and router turns green (on) as soon as xbox is turned on regardless of connection ornot
Yes, of course it will, doh!
That's not what I'm getting at.
If people want an auyo-modchip-disable mechanism which makes sure that
they never play via live with a modchip enabled then they could do the following.
Use a MOSFET or some form of micro-relay across the LED to enable/disable the modchip. If your Xbox has a network connection mod=off otherwise mod = on. This means that if anything on the xbox trys to check the BIOS while the xbox has a possible internet connection no info is going to get to MS about it. (unless MS create a log of kinds on the hard drive).
As for people who say "but I want to FTP games to my HD". Personally I think if you have a HD full of games, etc. and you are connecting to live you are pretty dumb. It is soon going to be a necessity to play from DVDR(W)/CDRW.
