I was wondering if XBL would work on the 360, if the 360 was hooked up to an ethernet cable via Internet Connection Sharing on XP.

I would just hook it up to a router, however my wife & I live on campus in married housing w/ free wireless internet, and the best place for a signal is @ the back door (T.V. is on the other side of the room).

I don't own a 360, just wondering in case I ever did get a 360. I prefer cable internet, but too much money and you can't complain about free basic cable and wireless internet (when it works).

I prefer not to use ICS, however I had to when I used the Nintendo WiFi connector for my Wii.

Thanks.

Ok, cool thanks. I didn't want to have to buy the wireless adapter if I did eventually get a 360. I figured it would work since it's M.S.Â
