Ok i have a slight problem now... Whenever i plug my ethernet into the 360, i have to reset my modem before it reckognises a connection and vise versar for my pc.. I mean what's wrong with that?
Also my modem has 2 sockets on the back.. A USB and an ethernet. Would i be able to use the usb for my pc and the ethernet for my 360? It's provided by a cable company somebody said it was possible but i don't want to go out and spend 15 pounds on a USB cable for it if it's not going to work.
Sean [Baron]:
I had the same problem at first too (having to reset my modem everytime), but after a little while I just "fixed" itself, I dunno if its because i have the network settings in the Xbox on 'automatic' or not, but now I can just unplug the Ethernet cable from my PC and hook it up to the 360. (Quick tip: If you have two Ethernet cables laying around, hook one of them up to your 360, and the other to your PC, and when you want to play xbox live, plug the 360 Ethernet cable into the modem, and unplug the PC one. works well for me)
As far as the USB goes, you can. If you have a USB-to-USB cable you can hook up your 360 to PC via USB, and PC to modem via Ethernet, which will allow you to be online on both at once (I believe). Basically working as a router, but with a router you can actually have your PC\360 more then like 2 feet away from eachother (or however long USB cables are lol).

Ok i'm all set up and ready to go.. I bought a router today and a 12 month Gold membership.. I had to figure out how to do all that DNS server setting stuff because my stupid cable company said i'd have to phone this number to get the info and it's like a pound a minute so i thought "screw that!!"
Any way my gamer tag is:
TacticalSiege
I added you, Baron ;D
