    Firstly not sure if this is the correct place for this post but hopefully it is as its quite general.

    Anyway...basically my friend has just got an xbox and wants to connect to xbox live but there is no ethernet connections in the room nor is he near to the modem. So instead of forking out €100 for a wireless adapter for the xbox, can he connect his xbox to his laptop which is connected to the internet wirelessly, and then connect to xbox live through that?

    Thanks.

    sorry i'm really really lazy tonight but short answer = yes totally 100% possible
    long answer search my posts as this is how i do it and have explained it several times, vista or xp is my 1st question for you however? i'm hoping for xp here as this was easy, i can tell you vista is a pain in the arse for this, not hard just a pain. either way you'll be going the route of internet connection sharing,
