My xbox is very far away from my router, so i cant use that.

In my room, i have a cable phone line, my ISP = comcast

If I buy a cable modem and just plug it in to the wall via cable and phone, then plug it in to my xbox, will it work?


Answer:
yes, just because its not connected to a computer doesnt mean that it wont work. but you gota make sure you dont have 2 phone lines or cable lines. it has to be on the same line the internet is on

Answer:
All you need is a Wireless-G Range Expander like this one from Linksys.

Don't put in a second cable modem because you will need a second account with comcast to use it.

Ideally you could run a cat 6 cable to your pc.
