Using nothing but a spare Ethernet cable, you can get Xbox Live up and running within minutes. Thankfully, Windows (8, 7, Vista, and XP) has a built-in feature called Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) that allows you to share your computer's Internet connection with your 360.
Wireless adapters run upwards of $60, and establishing a connection to an Ethernet port isn't always possible. For those of you still stuck with an old Xbox 360 that doesn't support WiFi, connecting your 360 to your computer can be a quick and easy way to get connected to Xbox Live.
