I need something that allows my wife to use the internet while at the same time I can play Xbox online. Right now, I just unplug the ethernet cable from the computer and plug it into my Xbox 360. But sometimes I want to play video games while she is on the internet. Is there something I can get that will allow me to do this? I think they are called "routers", but I may be wrong. Also, what type would you recommend?

be careful with the wireless adapter for your xbox tho, cuz the signal is not as strong as going str8 from the ethernet cable, so u may lose signal while playing games.

^ in that case, i would suggest ditching the xbox adapter and getting a wireless adapter for the PC if it doesnt already have a wireless card.

shit if there that close he dont even need a wireless router he can get a regular router for like 20 bucks , or if he really wants to go wireless leave the Xbox wired and make the PC use the wireless connection like kayvee said xbox wireless adapter !
$100 bucks on for the PC like $20 bucks tops
