I Live in an apartment complex and am using my neighbors router to
connect to the internet. What I am trying to accomplish is connecting
my xbox through a lan card and then using my linksys wireless card to
connect to the internet, then giving my xbox access to xbox live. I
have tryed to bridge the land card and my Linksys wireless card
together but with no success if anyone could help me on this please
send me and email or respond.

Thanks

Does your neighbor know you're using it? Do you know what kind of router it
is, because some router brand/models won't work or need special
configuration settings to allow them to work.

Since you would always need to have your computer running for xbox live to
work with that method, you might find it easier to just buy a wireless
adapter for the xbox. Linksys, Dlink, Netgear and Microsoft all make
wireless adapters. Linksys makes an 802.11b adapter for $42
