get a cross over cable, connect it from your xbox to the laptop and share the network connection when the laptop is connected via wifi.  Also make sure the engine is running on your laptop or another computer on your network. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Laptop --> wireles connection to the router
          ---> x-cable connection to the xbx


router --- > just connected wireless to the laptop

(check your firewall settings)

You don't have to set anything on xlink to wireless.  Why not get a wireless adapter for the xbox (i.e.netgear game adapter) and have both the xbox and laptop running wirelessly?  But as mentioned above, make sure your laptop is running the xlink engine, or the process won't work.  That is what I am using in my front room and it works great.  My other xbox in the back is "wired" because I stream a lot of video (ie movies) thru it, and well, wireless and video streaming can at times SUCK!

hope that helps
