So you have internet service? Simple solution then. Go to WM, or wherever, buy a $40 wireless router, plug in as instructions read, turn it on, your xbox360 has wireless built in and all you have to do is tell it to connect to the connection made by the wireless router and stay connected. It's simple

If that were the case I'm sure he'd know he had that option.

Why not just hook up the 360 and give it a shot? What's this ethernet cable coming out of the wall connected to? That sounds a little strange

I just want to know what the hell's the ethernet jack for then?
Surely, there wouldn't just be a random ethernet jack that goes to nowhere.
