Help with connection. NEEDED HELP!!!!!!!!

I'm going to go on Live with a wired connection but I have no idea how to set it up. Can some one please tell me how to set up a wired connection because my router is far away from my xbox. I have a laptop can I use that as like a wireless adapter? And if I need some sort of long cable or anything like that can you please add some links if you can?!??!?!?! Ur help would be RELLY RELLY apreciated!!!!

If your laptop can connect to your router, then you can bridge your laptop connectio your 360.

thanks but do I need a special ethernet cable or something? or will a normal ethernet cable do?

You could set up a wireless ad hoc (computer-to-Xbox) network where you could share your internet. It's easy on a Vista computer, but I'm not sure how to on XP.

yea u can bridge it with your pc. How far is your router away from your xbox, cause you can go buy 20-50 foot ethernet cable to reach your router. My router is about 12 feet away from my xbox in another room i just bought a cat-5 ethernet cable and ran it under the floor back up tp my router. But if u do bridge it, its not going to be as fast as a wired connection. So you will prob get booted from a lot of matches, and downloads will be a pain

Ok thanks I'll prob just get a long cable.
