I have a router connected to my cable modem. Then, I just use CAT5 line going to the xbox, and another going to my PC.

Here is a tutorial for using crossover cables.

http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-66.html

Now, to connect to another xbox you can purchase an accessory to do the job. Some actually more than two xbox's to be connected together. A system link cable (same as crossover) will do you fine. It will allow you to use multi player games that support system link to play a game in full screen, which is way better than a split screen.

We also have a tutorial here that tells you how to transfer files from one xbox to another in the event that interests you.

my system link cable is a rj45, and i do use it for smashing my friends on halo. but is a cross over the same as a rj45, or is it different? I totally understand how to network my xbox with my pc, but the cable is the question.

I believe rj45 is a type of cross over cable, different sizes and what not, just like cat 5 and cat 6.

From what I gather the difference between a crossover cat 5 rj45 (rj stands for registered jack) and straight through cables, also cat 5 rj45 is the ends.

When connecting to a hub/router you can use the straight through standard cat 5 rj45 line due to the hub/router lining up wires/connection to the computer.

But, when you don't have the luxury of a router doing that lining up for you, a crossover cable is needed so the ends line up properly.

Here is a site on how to make yoru own crossover cable.

http://www.littlewhitedog.com/content-8.html

I hope that helps. To be honest, I'd just buy an accessory to do the job..HA. I bought something that cost me less than ten bucks, M$ official system link cable, which is just a crossover cable, is 19.99.

I used my rj45 cable for my xsavesmanager and it worked beuitfully, so guess there really is no big deal I bought me a good cable was only 12 buck for 10 ft. cat5e. so if anyone else needs to know it works!
