    On your PC, you need to turn on Media Sharing (on the Library menu in Media Player), and you need to "Add files to library".

    On your 360, you need to add your router security key (if you haven't done so already).

    When you access the Video menu on your 360, you may need to "Change Source" (blue button), and your PCs name should show up as a selectable source if media sharing is turned on.

    Similar question here, my PC is connected to the router downstairs, is it possible to stream stuff from my own PC or can it only be done through the PC downstairs with the router connected to it?

    If your PCs are on the internet via the router (and your xbox is wireless or connected to the router via ethernet cable) then you're good to go.
