    Hi all,
    I have a spare wireless pci network card and was wondering how I could hook it up to the ethernet socket on an xbox?

    If I had another wired pci network card and connected the xbox to it with a patch cable, Could I join the pci ends of the two network cards somehow and connect my xbox to my wireless network?

    This maybe a ridiculous idea, but worth a shot me thinks.

    Cheers

    You wont have a hope in hell of running the Xbox through the PC. It simply doesn't register the connections.
