    Macbook and 360 [Share Internet]

    My macbook is connected to our internet via WiFi (to our Linksys Router). I am trying to share the internet with my Xbox 360 via the built-in ethernet port. I have had no success.

    I tried: Sharing > Internet > (selected Built-In Ethernet) and clicked start. So it is trying to share it. And on the xbox 360 I have it set to automatic and I have even tried setting to manual with the following settings: (192.168.1.93 / 255.255.255.0 / 192.168.1.1 )

    I don't know what I am doing wrong any help will be much appreciated. Thanks!

    log into your router and see if the XBox is shown as being connected. Might have to turn off the firewall in the router to let the XBox connect.

          You have a wifi router and it doesn't show who's log in to it? How do you set up WEP etc?

          click this http://192.168.0.1 you should be able to log into the router and change settings, upgrade the firmware, etc...
