    hi guys.

    how do you set up your computers to build a home network and be able to use wireless as well as cat5 cable to share files and printers.

    can yous do a step by step guide on doing a softmod to install media centre on a xbox without messing it up and a step by step guide on putting a bigger hdd in a xbox and install the operating system again.

    can you do a circuit diagram on a ide to usb adaptor and a sata to usb adaptor please

    start with a wireless 4 port adsl router and go from there. each device will either connect to the router wirelessly or via cat5 cable which you have to get wired in if you dont want leads all over the house.

    another way to add m ore cat5 /ethernet ports is to get an ADSL switch, plug this into your modem/router and you get 8 more ports.

    just how much do you know?

    It sounds to me like you need to get someone around to do it or else you may end up over your head.

    Do a search on the XBMC forum for the softmod ( i did mine recently and its easy) and xbox scene for the hdd swap (not so easy if you are a noob) about to put a 160gig hdd in mine. USB to printer port just buy an adapter, sata to usb again just buy one they are cheap ebay is your friend
