only the official MS wireless adaptor will work in the USB ports. however, and wireless adaptor/router that can plug into the ethernet port will work just fine

Xbox 360 Connected To Wireless Laptop

hi guys Heres one to tickle your brain
I have a wireless laptop connected to my router through wireless of course ,which has Media center on it...Then i have my XBOX360 and my Home PC which are HARD wired to the router.
Everything is running Static IP that i set of course

The router is DSL built in ...Blah blah Connecting to internet OK


Heres the thing ...I want to use media sharing on my Xbox360  by sharing with the laptops wireless connection....Basically cause the Laptop has the Media Ceneter on it and My PC dosent....
I have had it connected by hardwiring the laptop to the router....But as yet no joy with Wireless connection on My Laptop through the router.

Maybe it cant be done i dont know?  But to me it seems like it should be do-able

What settings would i need in the router and Laptop and Xbox360 to get this to work.

Laptop= wireless connection to Router
Xbox360=Hard wired to router
PC= Hard wired to router (no media center tho on PC)

Router is Netgear DG834G with latest firmware
DHCP off in Router


Any one got any ideas If this can work or how to get it to work???

Hey, just wanted to say thanks to the OP, and also to the poster that suggested changing the Router IP to 192.168.1.1.  These instructions worked perfectly and I am live!

I was having some MTU issue with this method so I tried to bridge connections and, !tada!, it worked just fine!
54mbps connection, and good speed at live.
