Hi Mark,
 
I'll try to provide you with details to the best of my knowledge but I must  
say that I'm not a gamer. <smile>
 
To do it wirelessly, you need a device. You can use the game console adapter  
to connect your XBox to the network. You can use the XBox Wireless adapter  
MN-740. Linksys does make a similar device and there may be other  
manufactuers as well. However, this is Microsoft's gaming adapter for the  
XBox.

And you need a something else to receive the signal to your  computer's  
wireless network card or directly to your network.

I hope this helps
