If my Xbox 360 is upstairs in my room and my pc (with modem) are downstairs and the ethernet cable will not extend to the pc what should I do? I DONT want to hassle with wireless communications, but I was thinking since I have a phone cord outlet in my room I could hook up the exsisting modem to the phone outlet and hook my 360 into that or I could just buy another modem and do the same thing. Im already getting highspeed internet as well. (earthlink) Thanks for your time

If your highspeed ISP is cable connected then yes use an additional modem upstairs for that, but incoming calls will interfere with the playing, Good Luck
