    Anyone know of a way to hook up an Xbox to use a wireless router/modem setup ?

    Running cables in my house is a nightmare & so I went for a Netopia 4 port router/modem for wireless net access from the laptop. Questions is, is there anyway I can use this to connect the Xbox to X/Live ?

    You an get 'wireless game console adapters' which are essentially bridges.
    Such as this in the us, http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/xboxwirelessadapter.htm
    most of the network hardware vendors do similar products..
    I use one of these without any probs in my set up..

    Yep, a wireless ethernet bridge is what you're looking for. I've got one for when I want to move the XBox to the big widescreen TV downstairs (which is not its normal home). Can't remember which one I bought, it might have been a Belkin one, but may also have been a Netgear one. Anyway, it worked right out of the box, no problems :)

    Ciarán.
