Connection Sharing

My mate would like to share his internet connection wit hhis XBox 360. I tried setting up ICS for him last week but couldn't get it to keep a reliable connection. The 360 would pass all the test except it would pass the connection to 360 live one minute and then fail it the next.

So, until he gets a router, I'm looking for a free piece of software for sharing his Blueyonder connection via his XP PC.

Any recommendations?

And did you setup the firewall/ICS to forward the two Xbox ports to the Xbox IP address ?

The guide I read on the XBox site had no mention of forwarding any ports. I disabled the XP firewall to take that issue out of the equation.

Yeah I know it's simple too but he would like to get this up and running until he gets a router.
