i installed gentoox to my xbox via ftp install, it works great. can i access directly to internet using an ethernet modem? i'm planning to buy an ethernet modem, but i'm not going to set up a home network, or share the network connection with my pc. (i sold it). i searched through the forum but all the articles are about sharing a connection with a pc etc.
i want to plug ethernet cable's one side to my xbox, and its other side to an ethernet modem. (simple newbie explanation) will it work?
do i have to buy a router?, also is the number of ports of the modem important? would you prefer which modem(brand,model)?
thanks
