    Hi,

    I am trying to get my internet connection shared to my xbox with a limited ammount of hardware. Here is my setup. In my room, I have a pc and wireless router. The modem is connected into the back of my router and the pc is connected to the router using coaxial cable. Downstairs I have an old pc and an xbox in the same room. My pc is networked to my upstairs router wirelessly. I have a crossover cable running from that computer (on a seperate lan card) to the back of my xbox. I can ftp into my xbox from the downstairs computer but I don't get any internet. I've enabled internet connection sharing on xp but can't get it to work. Here is the ip setup of my pc's. Also, while i'm writing this, my wireless connection seems to go down at certain points of the day..Don't know why the hell it is. I took a quick look around the house to find appliances that could have interfered with it but washing machine, dishwasher were shut off

    Just figured this out. Can't believe I even asked the question here. I found the answer on a tutorial in google.
