I downloaded XBC and i dont kno how to hook it up to my xbox. I would need more than one ethernet cord right? What else would I need because I am confused by the website
( god help me)
well, if you have 2 ethernet cards, you'll actually need a specific type of ethernet cable to have an xbox to computer connection. System Link cables work great for this. the set up you want is this: Connect the system link cable from the xbox to computer, then the regular ethernet cable from computer to ethernet port. go into the control panel for your comp and then network and dial up connections. Here's the semi-tricky part. Since you have two systems hooked up, you'll also what to have to separate Local Area Connections, one for the xbox to the computer setup, and the other for the computer to ethernet port setup. once you make sure on that, right click on the xbox to computer connection and select properties, then hit the "sharing" tab, and check the line saying "enable internet connection sharing for this connection" or something. That basically means that your xbox will now be sharing the same internet connection with your computer, provided both are turned on.) after that, its all a piece of cake with the auto config from the xbc program. PM me if you have any more questions
