Laptop PCI Sprint Internet card / Xbox Live Question?

Although I've seen similar questions, I haven't seen this exact one.





I have a laptop with an internet connection through a Sprint PCI card (it's the only internet we can get, we live in the middle of nowhere). My laptop has Microsoft Vista. I wish to connect my Xbox to the computer, using that to connect to Xbox Live. I am not very good with computers, so if you have a answer on how to do this, could you please put it in clear, easy steps?

You can hook up your 360 to your laptop easily by bridging the connection. Hook up your 360 to the ethernet port on your laptop using any ethernet cable you can find. Go to 'Network Connections' on your Vista PC (One way to get there is click start, control panel, Network and Internet, Network and Sharing Center. On the left will be a link for 'manage network Connections, click that.)





Highlight both your Wireless connection and Local area connection. Right click, and select bridge connections. Let windows do its thing for a minute and new connection called 'network bridge' will appear. Reboot your 360 and you're done. The bridge is in place until you manually delete it so you only have to set it up once.





Best of luck to you.Laptop PCI Sprint Internet card / Xbox Live Question?
