Hey with live, I don't have wireless so I need help..

Would I just have to plug the ethernet cable into one of those white boxes that are on the walls.. (The ones that you plug the phone line in and stuff), because my internet cable thing is plugged into one of them, (a wire goes from the little white box to the back of my comp which makes my internet work)

If not where would I plug it, because I don't have one of them modem box things,

Thanks if you can answer my questions <3

Right the ethernet that goes from your white box to your computer needs to be pluged into your xbox 360, So insted of it being pluged into your PC, Put it on your XBOX and BOYA!

Thanks very much :D

But if I get an ethernet cable with my xbox 360 in the premium package, so will I be able to plug that into a different white box and into my xbox so I can have internet and XBL on atsame time?

Right, Buy a router, From pc world, and buy a ETHERNET cable from Pcworld plug your router into pc and internt cable into router, then plug your other ehternet cable into router and then put the lead in your xbox.

Routers are expensive though. :(

There is this thing in argos that you can plug into the white box so you can plug 3 phones in at once, does this mean I could plug my Xbox thing in there?

Ok.

another question. That thing says it plugs 3 phones in one socket.. Is the xbox ethernet cable the same size and would it fit inside one of them?

No, Ethernet is bigger then Phone line, Have you got dial up?, Or Broadband.

Broadband..

I've just tried putting a phone line in the internet white box thing so it doesn't fit.

Surely this means the xbox thing wouldn't fit into the thing that says it can have 3 phone lines in one socket?
