Help with xbox360 connecting to live

I heard that you can use 2 routers (one attached to the pc and phone line and the other attached just to the xbox and mains) to connect to xbox live? Is this true and can anyone give me any advice on how to get the 2 routers to connect to each other. Apparantly its called ethernet bridging.

    don't think you need 2 . i think you connect your laptop to the router/ modem then plumb the Xbox into the Laptop which acts as the bridge .

    of course if your Router/ modem has a ethernet cable you can plumb the xbox straight into that .
    Better in my pocket than theirs :rotfl:
