I can't figure out how to use internet connection sharing (ICS) on my laptop to make it so i can connect my xbox 360 to my wirless network without having to waste $100 on an xbox 360 wireless adapter. Can this be done?

This may not answer your question as to make your laptop a wireless network adapter, but to achieve your overall solution, why don't you just buy a cheap $25.00 router,access point or switch. If you already have a wireless connectivity through a modem of yours, then you don't even have to purchase that. Just use the wired Ethernet port on your 360 (its faster than USB) and also that way you won't have to use up the resources or share bandwidth on your laptop.
I hope this helps. Good Luck

You plug it right into a USB port and you ingredients the right comparable speed and all as a inner on the spot card. in basic terms they're in many cases greater low value and you do no longer ought to open the computing device to place in it. you will locate USB on the spot adapters interior the $40 variety at Walmart or maximum digital shops.

You would need to run a cable from the XBox to the laptop. And you might need software in one or both machines to make then talk over it.
