That's impossible. The devices connected to each other would have conflicts.

I don't think you understand (Chances are Splicer isn;t the correct term >_>). My modem only has one Ethernet port on it which is needed to connect to the computer, I need 2 ports so I can connect my 360 to the router. I need something that you can plug into the 1 Ethernet port that has 2 other ports on the end.

You need an ethernet switch then, and then you's need a crossover cable going from your modem to your switch.


If you're getting a switch, get something from linksys that has a wireless router on it as well.

I have wireless, but the 360 doesn't accept wireless internet without a $100 thing :|.

I was trying to avoid buying a switch.

That's all you can really do, unless you pay 100 for the wireless thing which isnt even reasonably priced.

Just Sell whatever you use for wireless and get a router/4 port switch combo.
