is there a way to run my xbox internet through my mac using airport. What i mean is that i would use airport(wireless internet) on my mac and then run an ethernet cable from the port in the back of my imac 5g to my xbox. how would i go about doing this?
Got a tip for us?

why don't you just use airport and plug the cord that was going to your iMac, right into the 360? thats what i do
ok i have a imac g5 with airport built in to it wirelessy. and i want to basically turn my computer into a router
how would i go about doing this?

mac into a router
go to sharing in prefences, and choose internet, and choosing sharing. turn it on. I'm using that way right now. I have a ibook sharing internet lan(in) wireless(out) via airport and surfing the web on my windows laptop. just make sure u disable firewall and no wep encryption on your mac that has internet sharing on. I never could get it to work with either of those settings on
you can do this with pc also but you have bridge the two connects but its a pain in the but to get working. mac 1 click your done.
good luck
