Plug your xbox into the ethernet port on your laptop/pc.Highlight your connection either the wireless/ICS phone (depending if youre using Wifirouter or ICS via USB) and ethernet. Right click on it and click on bridge. Should work. If not try turning off you xbox and turning it back on. Disable/enable the ethernet for a fresh start. And walla should work. Make sure you xbox setting are set to automatic for IP and DNS.

You can just use the phone by itself. However you need to use WMwifirouter on your phone and a wireless adapter on your xbox. Make sure your phone is plugged into the wall for it to charge. The battery will slowly drain even though it is plugged into the wall but it isnt very fast.

yeah im tring to do this with the laptop in the loop i really dont want to have to spend like 70 - 100 dollars for the wirless adaptor( but i did just flash my fon 2100 router with dd-wrt so i might make a wireless adaptor with that)!!
but when i bridge the two connections i dont get any data packets sent over wifirouter!!

I've got 2 different batteries and they both get drained in about the same amount of time. I really wish there was a way around this. Like if there was a way to hotwire the mogul so you could use it without a battery. I've been using this for a couple of weeks since my internet has been down.

I've played Halo3 and COD5 online with my 360, even watched streaming netflix. Netflix is a little tricky and lags to hell, but once you get it going it's great. I can just about watch a whole movie before my batteries drain.

I still need to check how long it will run starting with a full charge.

mine runs hot how do i safly stop that?

if you have dd-wrt and want to use that as a wireless ethernet bridge on the 360 its easy. u don't have to use wmwifirouter unless you want.

Step 1 use wmwifirouter.

Step 2 go into your routers config webpage in ddwrt for wireles status "http://192.168.*.*/Status_Wireless.asp" replace stars with your 2 digit setup normally 1.1 or 0.1 enter your router password default for dd-wrt is root/admin click the site survey button ... then click join on the wmwifirouter signal.... wait for the config page to change to wireless settings and hit apply. wait about 30 seconds and whateve is connected to the ethernet ports of the router will be sharing the mogul internet connection. You won't be able to use wifi from the router to connect wireless devices as the wifi is connected directly to the mogul kind of a wireless Wan cable type connection.

Or you can go the totally free and better app in my opinion is ICS control v0.21

Dl and copy the ics control file to the storage card or install the cab file.

Step 1 go into settings > wifi > Menu > add new and create an ad-hoc(peer 2 peer) connection name it whatever you want to show up as.
save and exit.

Step 2 turn on wifi if not already on.

step 3 launch the ics control program set the first dropdown to cellular line and the second one to tnetw11(wifi)

step 4 set to auto connect to network with the check mark.

step 5 save settings bottom right. then click start (within the program)

step 6 is just like step 2 with wmwifirouter... the fist 4 steps only needs to be done the first time you do this to create the network so ics can broadcast the internet signal network you created. from that point on u can just launch ics and turn on wifi and should work easily it does not require config every time only if u want to change some settings. Uses tcp/ip stack to talk directly to the modem and will not requre the use of third party solutions

forgot to mention lower screen brightness all the way down, and leave keyboard out(open) will lower power requirements and or keep heat down.

Use a fan to reduce heat.

i will try this tonight i have tried to connect my fon 2100 dd-wrt route to my home wireless router and was unsucessful so i wanted to see if there was a different way so i hope this works

New to the forum. Looks like the place that might have an answer. I've tried using my 6800 with wmwifirouter to get on xbox live but keep getting an mtu error on the xbox stating that the mtu isn't high enough. Does anyone else have this issue, and is there any way to edit the mtu setting? Thanks for any help in advance!

Well i contacted microsoft thru the xbox.com website and this is the respondce that i got. basically they are saying that at this time they dont know how to make this work!!!
