    Default Next G USb modem and Wireless Router

    hey all. I was wondering if it is at all poossible to have a USB nextg modem and use it in conjunction with a wi-fi router. My buddy has a nextg modem and an xbox 360. He needs some internets to his xbox. If I get him a microsoft xbox 360 wireless adapter, a wireless router, will it work?

    Thanks all.

    I have set one up but the only way I found was through a dedicated laptop and bridging the network connections

    I have done a few vigors and air cards, we used vigor 2800, as does vpn and can do adsl with the air card as back up .

    Make sure you have the latest firmware as old 2800 dont show the aircard option

    I have a desktop computer, Xbox and two wireless laptops all running off a Next G through a Belkin Wireless Router no problem.

    Share the internet connection of the Next G card and also have this machine hardwired to the router. Sharing it will automatically give it an IP address of 192.168.0.1, just make sure you change your settings on all the other machines to use sequential numbers and set the gateway to 192.168.0.1 and away you go. It works with Vista and XP machines on the same network and the Xbox. Remember to change the Xbox settings as well.
