Connecting to XBOX Live through my Computer (Solved)

I have a Zune, and I love plugging it into my Xbox and jamming out while I loot Cyrodiil, but, I recently lost the USB cord, and I know how you can do the whole media sharing thing between a computer and Xbox, but, I was wondering if it was possible to connect my xbox directly to my computer, and still connect to Xbox Live.

Or am I going about this in the completely wrong direction?

    You can, if you have a second ethernet port. Connect the Xbox to that, then open the Properties -> Advanced tab for your internet connection and enable sharing. You'll have to disable your firewall while using the Xbox.

    But I'm pretty sure that you can't share media this way. My 360 seems to want a router in the mix in order to share, and I can't figure out any other way to enable sharing.

    Thanks, this is good information to have.

    But I found my Zune Cord, so I'm back in business anyway. :"D
