I was wondering if it was possible to connect my 360 to live via a computer on my wireless network(not the one connected to the router) using a ether net connection.

yes but in my experience it is a bit hit and miss. To do it you would need a second network card on the PC you wanted to connect your 360 to. Use a crossover cable to link your 360 to the new network card in the PC and then you have to call up your network adapter list (right click->properties on "My Network Places") and tell Windows to create a "bridge" between the network adapter connected to your wireless network and your new card connected to your 360. This should make it all behave like one network and your 360 should connect to live. Thtas the theory anyway. I have tried this before but always struggled to get the bridge to create successfully. By far the better option would be to get yourself the 360 wireless adapter.
