Just a simple request of your minds for a second.. im fairly sure i know the deal here.

Ive got 2 Pcs and a 360. One internet connection, modem, DSL.

So the internet comes to the first PC and shares the internet with my 360s connection so i can use live.. but i cant share the internet with the other connection.. ICS doesnt do that does it?

So im thinking i need to bridge the connections?.. now do i bridge the xbox and other PCs LAN connections? And then share my internet to this one bridged connection?

Sorry for the questions, i feel im on the right track but im recently very tired of networks and just want a bit of confirmation.
 
That sounds about right - alternatively, you could connect the current LAN interface (ie the one your 360 connects to) to a switch, then the 360 and other machine to that.

Or he could get a router, and do away with ICS, which gets my vote tbh.
