Can I get my XBOX 360 to have Internet through my PC??

[budafied]

Hey guys, I'd like to run my xbox 360's live access through my computer's mobo. I'm on a college network, where I have only one port to myself in the wall. I have it running through an ethernet cable to ethernet port #1. I also have my 360, which i want to connect to my pc (throguh ethernet port 2?) to enable live access. I have both a crossover cable, and regular ethernet cables to use.

I have tried enabling internet connection on ethernet port #2 wehile using the crossover able between xbox and pc... but then ethernet port #1 loses internet, what am i supposed to do??

after a quick search, i may have found the answer:

However, will my being on a college network mess this up at all?

It should not since the second NIC and the X-Box are on a secondary Network.

ok here's what i did:

1) i created a bridge between the two ethernet connections, no ICS on either.
2) connected xbox with pc via ethernet and crossover (both worked)
3) I now have xbox live + pc internet access!!!!!!!!!


now i gotta use media connect, but thats not network related lol

thanks guys!
