Tech or troubleshooting... I wonder
Anyways this feels like software advice so I guess its just tech...

Use windows interent sharing. I think its called ICS. There are programs that also do this... such as wingate.

I THINK the way you do it is go to Network Connections (should be in control panel) and make a new network connection.

Attach a cat5 crossover network cable between your Xbox and laptop's ethernet port. Crossover is not the same as a straight through or patch cable.

I dont recall exactly how to use ICS oo read this http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp_ics/

Hope it helps... I used to do that on my PS2 to play Socom because I had dialup. =x people hated me for lagging...
