Hey I was just wondering how to connect (or setup) ics so I can connect to xbox live through my computer. I have windows vista (business edition) and a wired/wireless linksys router. My computer is connected wirelessly to my router. Any thoughts (links to tutorials) or help would be greatly appreciated. _________________________________________________________ .:!UNL33SH+UR+X!:.

The easiest way would be just to plug the xbox 360 directly into the router or purchase a wireless adapter.
But you could go other routes.
Have you got a spare network card in your pc?
You could easily setup the xbox 360 to share the internet from your pc.
All you need to do is connect your xbox 360 to your pc and give both the xbox 360 and the pc and static address for that nic (network card).
Once the xbox 360 and pc are connected on the same network (via crossover cable) you could then right click your WIRELESS INTERNET CONNECTION and choose properties and then the advanced tab where you can turn on ICS.
It will ask you which network you want to share your Internet with.. Just choose the NIC card that you have directly connected with your 360.
