NO!!! that is basicly like giving him $5 to say plug it into the modem. if you really wanted easy solutions to hooking up your xbox to the net you should just ask on here.

this is exactly what he will tell you and maybe a little more just by judging from the requirments he has.

you put the wireless card into your pc
plug the ethernet cable into the computer
plug the cable into the xbox
use the pc as a Huge wireless card for the 360 which is slow and a pain in the ass compaired to just running an ethernet cable to your xbox strait from the router

thats about it

If you want to free up an outlet on your power strip, buy the Microsoft wireless adapter. Or just spend $20 and buy a bigger power strip...
