house has wireless internet. i dont have a wireless adapter for the xbox as i borrowed it off someone who is no longer a friend so had to give it back.

what im wondering is, can i hook the soap box up to the net using an oldskool modem and phone cable, even though there is a router in the house? as i have a phone socket on the wall behind the xbox you see. and have a broadband modem kicking about.

If the modem has an ethernet socket on it you could.

If it's just usb you can't.
