Does your modem even have a place for a ethernet hookup? It just seems that it should. I've never ran into a setup that didn't have one. whats the make of the modem?

[benagain]

nm, I read where it doesn't have a port. What's the model again anyway? It seems like a connection I've never ran into before. all highspeed ned I've ever had has beeen ethernet.

plug your ethnet wire into your laptop so it goes phone line>modem->laptop|-|laptop->xbox

that should work

Enabling internet connection sharing is exactly what you want to do. If you are running Windows XP, the Network Setup Wizard in Network Connections will guide you through it.

God i hate setting up that shit. Try unplugging all the plugs and plug them in again before trying to connect to live. I can't give you help, only smypathy, call one of the professionals and pray you can understand what they're saying.

That looks like a ethernet jack on the modem. Looks to wide for a regular phone jack. Whats't the other end of line line plugged into? Can you just plug that thernet jack into your exbox instead of the modem? I dunno mn, it's tricky to get this stuff working without being there in person, but have patience and I'm sure we'll get yout there.
