i have my g4 mac in my kitchen using a wireless usb adapter. can i connect my xbox 360 to it to connect to xbox live through the ethernet port on the mac like i do on my xp laptop? i don't want to connect to the mac but just share the wireless connection to my network? thanks
 
all u really have to do is allow "internet sharing" from your computer (located in system preference>sharing), set that up and your fine.
 
i tried that internet sharing thing but i couldn't get it to work. i'll play around with it some more.

cool thanks! i really appreciate all of your help.
 
hmmm... now i can't get it to work again. i get an ip address but it just stops there and fails at the dns check 🙁 i use en4 adapter to connect to the internet so i shared that connection to the built in ethernet for the xbox. entered all the address' like i should have and now i can't connect 🙁 does anyone have any ideas? thanks
