First things first: I don't own one. Oh, I also don't want to spend 100 dollars to either.
However, I have a router downstairs and a laptop I keep upstairs. If I take an ethernet cable and plug it in my laptop, and put the other end in my 360, would it be possible to get that cocksucker online?
I seen there is a guidebook out there for this, and it states you just need wireless internet, a computer, and an ethernet cord, but they want you to buy the book.
So has anyone tried this shit yet?

You can do it, that's how I have my X360 hooked up to the net.
1. Plug the ethernet cale from the xbox to the laptop
2. Under Network Connections you shoud see an icon for your wireless connection and an icon for your Loca Area Connection, highlight both of them.
3. Right click one of them and under the menu find "Bridge Network Connections"
4. You should be set now. If i doesn't work turn your xbox off and restart your computer. Once your computer is back up, go ahead and turn on your Xbox.
