Getting online with Xbox Live with 3G modem.

jayteecork

If you're like me and the only Broadband you have available is the 3G Modem, then don't worry. I have successfully set up my laptop as a modem using shared internet connection and I will describe the simple procedure below in case anyone is stuck.
It works very well too - I can download a 100MB arcade demo in maybe 15 mins. Not too bad considering, Plus I've played Team Fortress 2, Gears of War, and the Lost Planet online demo with seemingly no lag.
Instructions are assuming you're on Windows Vista.
Anywa you will need the ethernet cable that came with your 360.
Now go to control panel, click "Network Sharing and Tasks"
Click "view Status" and then click "Properties"
Go to the "sharing" tab and simply check the "allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection" box. click ok.
Now simply plug the 360 ethernet connection into the pc and into the back of the xbox. You should be able to connect to Xbox Live and claim your 1 month's free Gold membership!!
