My friend has a 360, a laptop, and a modem attached to a computer in a separate room. I was thinking that logically, couldn't he attach an ethernet cable from his 360 (since most people don't want to shell out 85 bucks for the Wi-Fi adapter...except me unfortunately) to his laptop, and use it as a bridge to connect to Xbox Live?
Yes.
Yes.
Use a crossover cable, and apply internet connection sharing on the laptop.

You'll have to configure your 360 to connect to the laptop.

I made one as well. I didn't change the ends though, I just cut/soldered in the middle. I used one of those pre-made Xbox 360 cables, it's never failed me once.Kurazoo wrote:
