Cable/DSL Modem (USB) english PC Windows ICS Connection Choose a Windows Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) connection if you want to share your high-speed Internet connection with your PC (or other device), your high-speed modem uses a USB (not Ethernet) connection or is an internal PCI modem, and you don't mind turning on your PC before playing games on Xbox LIVE. To set up a Windows ICS connection: 1 Connect one end of a USB cable to a USB port on your PC and the other end to a USB port on your high-speed modem. 2 Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your PC and the other end to the Ethernet port on the back of your Xbox 360 console. 3 Enable Internet Connection Sharing on your PC. 4 Follow the on-screen instructions. You may need to enter information provided by your ISP in the System area of the Xbox Dashboard. Troubleshoot Your Connection If your Xbox 360 console cannot connect automatically, you may need to manually configure your network settings in the Xbox Dashboard. Some Internet service providers (ISPs) require specific settings, including host name, MAC address, and ISP user name and password (for PPPoE authentication). If you are unsure about whether you need this information, check with your ISP. For more information, go to www.xbox.com/setup.
