Hello, i am trying to connect my laptop thats runs xp and has Bigpond wireless internet to my xbox 360 elite. ((The USB modem is designed to tap the full 3.6Mbps capabilities of Next G (which uses the HSDPA 3.6 standard), compared to the 1.8Mbps redline of the PC Card. ))
I have the ethernet cable to connect the two together....... i have tried to connect by bridging the wireless connection and the local area connection, also turning off my firewall.. which i wasn't so keen on but that failed too... the ip address is what i'm unsure about and all the other small things to help link it.
i've been told i can get the internet running off my laptop to my xbox but its not proving to be as simple as the explanations on the net.
i dont know how to change security settings or allow other users to connect or basically anything that allows me to connect
the frustration is growing and my xbox live sessions are nil
can someone give me a complete run through...... and explain it to me as if i was 10, maybe draw some pictures!

your internet at home, do you have a wireless router which connects to a phone line?
i want to know, is your internet ADSL or wireless through a provider.
