Gaming Xbox360 using a HOTSPOT

[altorn]

Good day everyone,

I recently got an xbox360 elite and I've flashed the DVD firmware(only) with iXtreme 1.61..
Its got a 8955 dashboard so I'm not expecting homebrew on it.

I want to connect to Xbox Live every now and again because I buy games that I will
want to play online with (like MW2 or Left4Dead)..

Here's my setup:

My 360 is in my room.
I have a PC(with wireless card) and a couple of laptops in my room.
My router is downstairs.

Without moving my 360, how can I connect to the internet via wireless?
Can I connect my 360's ethernet cable to the ethernet port in my PC or whatever?
How do i set it up?

Thank you!

Bridged connections is the usual way people work around having to kick MS a small fortune for a 360 wireless card:

thanks man, it works!
i noticed though that I can't find any "disconnect from xbox live" options though, i just unplugged my 360->PC cable. is there such an option that when i don't want to be on LIVE but continue using my profile while playing games offline(backup games)?

Your profile should still update "offline" and sync when you next go online.

Also offline/online- it does not matter in the "will I get banned" stakes.
