You've turned on ICS on the laptop right? and changed the firewall settings on the router?

Go on google and search "Internet connection sharing for (OS you're using)".
It might work just with that activated, if not, you'll need to go on google again and search "Router firewall settings for (Router you're using)".

The version of Windows which you're running. Will be XP or Vista

Start -> Control Panel -> Network Connections -> Right click the internet connection that says 'Connected' and click Properties -> Look around until you find Internet Connection Sharing and enable it
After you have done that report back
edit - give the xbox a go before you report back

easy peasy mate! Plug your etheret cable into your xbox, then into the port on your laptop, open up your connections dialog box and highlight your wireless connection and the LAN connection using the SHIFT key then right click and bridge the connections no need to play around with router, you should be able to share the IP addy from your laptop
