Live Help?!

Is there anyway to get my XBOX 360 hooked up to Live by my router? The router is 20 (very rough estimate) feet away from the XBOX 360. I just recieved my system some months ago and I decided to join the hype. Thank you to anyone to responds.
P.S, I do not want to pay 100 dollars for the Microsoft router.
ALSO, the router is a Verizon Actiontec (GT704WG)

Don't mixed up the terms ROUTER and ADAPTER. You say you don't want the Microsoft router, I am assuming you mean WIRELESS NETWORK ADAPTER, because MS doesn't make a router.

You don't specify if you want a wireless connection with your router or a wired one. If your impartial then pick based off of the pros and cons:

Wireless Pros

1. No wires.
2. You look cool to visitors who notice your setup.
3. Mobility - not sure if this counts with a console. Awesome with a laptop though.

Wireless Cons

1. Harder to setup (My exp is only for PCs, no idea how hard/easy the Box would be).
2. Not as fast as a wired setup.
3. Not as reliable as a wired setup over distances, walls, floors (though 20ft is not a concern).

Wired Pros

1. Fastest way to game.
2. Easy, just plug it in and hit Auto-Detect.
3. Can connect devices through floors and thick walls and over long distances.

Wired Cons:

1. Wires.
2. You can trip.
3. Your "tethered" (see Con #1).
