Best solution for me?

[Kabob]

I just got Comcast internet and I'm trying to figure out what to do. My Xbox 360 is in another room and I'd like to connect it to the internet. I have a wireless bridge, although if there was a way around using it I'd love to do so since it's got low bandwidth. The modem I got will only allow me to hook my computer up. So, what are my options?

Are there any modems I can buy that will allow me to hook more than one device up to it? Do I have to get a router instead? I'd rather not shell out $100 for just an Xbox 360 wireless adapter...

What's the best/cheapest solution to go with? Right now I'm hooked up to the modem they gave me, but I can buy my own and ship theirs back and save $3/month...

If the Comcast Modem is Not a Modem Wireless Router combo you need a Wireless Router.

The X-Box can be connected with a cable or Wireless with game adapter.

There is No other way about it if you do not want to spend the money head to the Trade forum and sell the X-Box.

Or choose the worse solution. I.e insert a second NIC to the computer, connect the X-Box with a cable to the second NIC and use Windows ICS to Route.

I don't even need a wireless router, a wired version would do with the wireless bridge I've got...just trying to find out if I can use the wireless bridge with the modem only or if I still need a router for it...

Ok, from the top.

Wireless adapter can not work if you do not have a Wireless source to conncect to. A Wireless Router is usually the Wireless source.

A single Internet connetion needs a Router in order to feed two devices (computer, game box etc.).

A typical setting looks like this, http://www.ezlan.net/network/router.jpg

in your case the Wireless is not a computer but a GameBox. However, the Network should be the same as in the picture above.
