<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ElMaster @ Dec 29 2006, 07:35 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Guys I need some help setting up the internet for the 360. It brought the ethernet cable, and I think I have to connect it to the cable modem...but that ethernet cable is really short, and there's no way for it to reach the TV. Are there any other ways?</div>Use a router to connect the Xbox 360 to the router with the ethernet cable. Or you can buy a longer ethernet cable so that you can connect it from your router/modem to your console if the current ethernet cable isn't long enough.Another option is to go ahead and buy a wireless network adapter for your 360 if you have a wireless network set up. But the bad thing about this option is that the adapter is $100 in stores, and the cheapest I've seen it go for (other than eBay) is about $70. My cousin was able to get a used one for around $20 off of eBay though.

Around 99.99% sure. My roomie just plugged one in, so somehow I doubt that it is unique unless I wasn't paying attention at all.

So expect me to post my gamer tag in a few weeks.
