EDIT: Never nind, I got it, thanks anyway, John.

I'd like to connect my XboX to my computer, via lan cable. I don't want to spend money for a wifi card. But I still want to be able to access the internet, from my xbox I tried using a lan cable, but nothing...anyone know what to do?

You will have to set up internet connection sharing on your pc. How is your pc getting internet, lan or wireless?
 
Ok, I no longer have the issues with the network. Network is OK, but now my PC isn't showing up?

EDIT:

Can't connect to the internet, or xbox live.

EDIT: GOT IT WORKING YAY!!

bridge the wireless connection with the ethernet one, the one that will be connected to the xbox.

In the xbox (360), you'll have to put in the DNS IP yourself.

Connect the wireless and connect the xbox to the lan cable and the lan cable to the ethernet port which is bridged. If these were connected when you bridged the connections, repair both. Don's ask why, its just what I had to do.

It should work now. if it doesn't, turn of the router, for up to a minute to be safe, turn it back on and try it like that.

Unfortunately, after updating my xbox, I have to re-do it, or fix something...
