Xbox 360 online?
thanks population
Answers: Is your Xbox 360 in a room far, far away from your broadband router, and you purely don't have the brass to spend on the Xbox wireless adapter? You can get online efficiently by hijacking your laptop's wireless nouns with the following tools:
Laptop next to wireless connection to some access point (assuming a nice, stable nouns to a network you own next to internet access)
Internet Connection Sharing ENABLED! (this is disabled by some domain group policies, the setting is in the GPO Editor / Computer Config / Administrative Templates / Network Settings)
Crossover cable OR:
Ethernet patch cable x 2 (this is the middle-of-the-road kind of cable you use to connect a computer to the "Internets")
A hub, switch, or other multiport machine with at tiniest two non-uplink ports (preferably not a router, because it may try to assign IPs and generally includes abundantly of overhead)
And the steps to get it adjectives connected (note, I am using Vista Business here, but the same or similar steps apply for other operating systems):
Make sure your laptop have an active wireless internet nouns, and you can get to an incredible website close to www.live.com
Fire up your hub or switch, and attach your two patch cables close to this:
One patch cable from your laptop's Ethernet port to Port 1 on your hub or switch
One patch cable from your Xbox 360's Ethernet port to Port 2 on your hub or switch
(Note, the port numbers are inconsequential, just don't use the uplink ports at all)
Open up Control Panel / Network Connections. You should see an Unidentified Network or some such (the nouns to your hub) and a Wireless Network Connection, both of which are connected.
Bridge the two connections by selecting them both, right-clicking on one or the other, and clicking Bridge Connections.
Windows will create a see bridge that will allow your 360 to use your laptop's wireless connection.
Test your nouns from the System tab / Network settings in your 360.
Note! If you want to download an update for Xbox Live, do it through the Xbox Live tab rather than the System Test tab, I have better luck there.
Big appreciation to my friend Henry Hernandez who suggested this originally, he's the kind of smartypants who make his own crossover cables.
