I've just brought a wireless Belkin router (125Mbps Wireless-G Router ) and I want to hook up my Xbox360 and PC to it. What's the best way of doing this? The router is upstairs from my room and shared by two other people. Is it best to get an access point and run a cable from that to them?
PC + Xbox 360 + Network

Unless I'm misunderstand, just get a wireless adaptor for each computer.. Why another access point?
If the Xbopx is in the same room as your PC then the cheapest way to do it would be to get a wireless adapter for the PC wither PCI or USB. Assumiong your PC has an ehternet port on it then run a ethernet cable from the PC to the Xbox and set up ICS on the PC this way the PC will share the internet connection with the 360.
The disadvantage of this is that you must have your PC on in order for the 360 to connect to the net but it is a lot cheaper than buying a wireless adapter for the 360
