A crossover cable is basically a standard lan cable that has a few wires switched around so instead of having router you can connect 2 computers together so they can comunicate with each other and a xbox is basically a computer so you need a crossover cable to directly link your xbox to your computer, you can pick one up at your local radio shack or computer store. _________________
