i must be overlooking something

when i bridge the 2 together
i have the console hook to the pc by the cat5 port
and i have the cell running pdanet and/or easy tether by usb and will get on the net great.
both will not let the console get on live

Are you able to use the browser on the computer with just the phone?

I know with my phone (HTC) I needed to install some HTC Sense Suite or something like that which is an application to transfer music contacts all that crap. (basically the htc equivalent of itunes) It installed some special drivers that windows 7 didnt and allowed me to finally teather my phone to my comp.

That could be the issue, also check to make sure his mobile network is enabled and that the phone's usb mode is set to tether or connection sharing or whatever I know mine's set to automatically go to charge only when I plug it into usb. :D :D

If your able to tether the phone to the PC and use the phone's mobile network to browse the web, you should be able to bridge connections and use it on the 360. Thats assuming the 360 will take to the slow speeds the phone will provide :?

yea
the pc gets on the net fine
with a speed test of 1.3
so its a little slow but its ok

the trouble is that
when its using one of the programs to get on live and i bridge the connection
the xbox does not get a good ip
its just not setup to give ipaddress
im going to look into setting a staic ip
but
i still think im going to have trouble

im looking to root and install a custom rom on a sanyo zio now
it maybe the best way to go

silentj did some testing with his moble hot spot and the xbox and it did great
got on live with good ping times, latency and speed to play gears of war 3

I'm using Windows 7 for this exact feature, except I'm using my laptops wireless to pull internet from my hotel and share it through my ethernet port to my xbox. There's an actual share this connection button in the properties of the wireless network adapter. That did it for me.

there is no wireless where he is at
but his phone has great sig and 3g

if its got the 2.2 update it should have the hotspot
