How do you connect an Xbox 360 to a internet connetion through a different computer?

Published on Wednesday, April 29, 2009 by admin

I am trying to get to XBOX Live through my laptop which has a card that connects it to a wireless network tower (made by a phone company). I have the ethernet cable hooked up and I am running windows vista :-<
and I need to know how I have to have my setings on both the laptop and the XBOX 360.

This is about “Internet Connection Sharing”, and is kind of complex. Refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306126.

    • wait, your tring to use your laptop as a router to give your 360 itnernet//??

      is that correct?

      you cant ..

      i tried.

      you have to either connect it through a rounter, access point, or directly to the modem.

      also, you can spend a rediculous amount of money on a wireless adapter

      but then again, you still need a rounter, and might as well just hardwire it in

    • It is possible to use your laptop as a bridge, but you have to change alot of your internet sharing options and you would only get 50% of your connection speed. You should get the Pelican Xbox 360 Gaming Adapter. It works as good as the official one. I have it my self, and I’ve been using it for a good 3 months and had no problems. They cost 29.99-39.99 used and 49.99-59.99 new.

      and if you want free Microsoft Points or Xbox LIVE codes, or anything else, i would suggest using Rewards1. i thought it was fake, but then i tried it and i wanted to get 1600 MS points, so i gathered up enough points by answering surveys, and i put in a request, and in my email box there was a code for the 1600 MS points. i am so happy it works. you should try it.
