Cor Blimey, he's back! Huzzah, cheers, praise the Lord etc...

Anyhoo, I'm about to purchase 3 mobile broadband and a laptop, and I was wondering if any of you lot had a flipping clue how to run my lovely xbox 360 through it so i can shoot communists on tinternet. I've been reading the 360 forums and such, but as they are all about 14 and i'm 26, I can't make out a bloody word of it, aside from occasional problems with NAT something or other, and private i.p. addresses. Clueless. If anyone's got half a clue what they are on about, or indeed run their xbox with 3mobile broadband, help would be appreciated. Indeed, i'll send you a Blue Peter badge and invite you round for dinner with the Queen.

Modem into laptop -> connect to internet -> wire up 360 to laptop via ethernet -> share connection through lappy.

Should be simple as.... in theory.
Tried it once with my mac, failed.

Yeah, in theory it should be that simple but it ain't, apparently. A lot of ins and outs to it, so they say

TO THE WOODS!

Yeah, 5gb usage isn't a lot, but 6 hours gaming is equal to 100mb on average, and I do have a life, so i won't be sat in front of it 24/7.. Ba-zing!
