You have to set up a gold account, so yeh you can use the free month but apparently there have been some problems with Xbox Live.

there should be one in the box but you can also use the one with halo3, and you cannot play online with Sliver, only with Gold.

Are you talking about playing your downloaded demos online? Or just games in general? If its the demos, as far as I know you can only play the full games online against other people, atleast thats been the case with any of the demos I've gotten. Other than Halo 3 beta... If thats not what you're talking about then I appologize for having no frame of refrence.

on the main screen, the color of the bar where your name will tell you if your either gold or silver. you need gold to play online with any game.

You can either use the code that came with Halo and get a 48 trial of gold, or just pay for a gold subscription (which is what I did). I think some units may have come with a free month but I know my Elite unit did not (dunno why). IMO you should just pay for a subscription (you can either buy a card at any gamer store or pay via credit card once connected). I don't think you're missing anything, you just gotta pay
