My Xbox 360 is in the living room right now but I'll soon move it to my room.Problem is, my Ethernet cable isn't long enough to reach the router in the living room.I think it's like 7 feet long.Wireless connection aside($100 is way too much and even the original Xbox's price is out of reach for me right now),how can I solve this?Is there any wa to extend the reach,are there any extenders for Ethernet cables or something?kthxbai

Buy a longer ethernet cable. My 360 is in my living room and my ethernet cable goes down under the floor and about 25 feet to the dining room, where my computer is located.
