You'll need a laptop/PC. You connect online using your laptop, then use your ethernet cable to connect computer to Xbox. Then you have to set up your computer so that it'll share the connection with the Xbox. Are you running Windows XP, Vista or 7? It's a different process for each

if you have a laptop or your pc is close to you xbox you can bridge or share the internet connection with your xbox.


You will need: An Ethernet cable (like the one included with your Xbox), a pc/laptop connected to the internet and of course an Xbox.

ok now the enable internet sharing.


1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet, click Network and Sharing Centre and then, on the left, click Manage network connections.

2. Right-click on your wireless connection, and then click Properties.

3. Click the Sharing tab and enable the 'allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection' option. Click ok.

Now connect the Ethernet cable to your pc and to your Xbox. Give it a minute to connect and then on your Xbox go to the system tab and click network settings. Next click 'test Xbox live connection'. If everything worked as it should the test should finish ok

Let me know if your having any problems and ill try help.
