buy a router. than you can hook up your computer and your xbox at the same time.

THIS is a good one.

yes cable is on all the time.

yes you could. but i highly recommend getting a router if your going to have a high speed always on connection. you really need the hardware firewall that a router provides. not having a router is just asking for trouble in this day and age.
