I know the way to share an internet connection with an XP laptop, unfortunatly, i only have vista laptops in my house and an Xp desktop upstairs. I was wondering if you could do the same thing with vista, to get a live connection, because i've tried it out and im hooked. Becausereally, who wants to pay $100 for a wireless adapter?

Basic question: How do i get an Xbox 360 internet connection through my vista laptop?

No clue how that works, but can't you just try the same thing you did with the XP one?

Wait, are you looking for a program in Vista? Because I have Vista and can help you if that's the only problem.

Sorry I don't even know how to get a connection through a laptop so maybe you can help me with that one.

I'm a real big fan of how MS changed little things like that so they don't make sense anymore. I especially like the "power" button in the start menu that doesn't actually turn off the computer. I once saw that you can fix it, but after looking around for 10 minutes I gave up.
