You can connect the console to the Internet in several ways - directly (simply by plugging the power cord from the provider into the console), using a router or an ADSL modem which has a router function or via a computer.
1. Directly. If you have a network cable from the provider to the apartment and you don’t run anything on the computer to go online, i.e. turn on the computer and the Internet is already there - then most likely you are identified in the network by the MAC address. It is possible that the network card must be specifically configured. In this case, if you have a PS3, then you can not read further, you are not lucky (in PS3 you cannot change the MAC address), if you have an Xbox 360 then you need to write down all the network settings on the paper, write the MAC address (it is also called physical address) and enter all this into the network settings in the console. Where to find out these settings is written above. In short: Start - cmd - ipconfig / all All, you can connect the X360 directly.

The second is through a router. The most convenient, but you need to configure the router correctly, which is often not as easy as it seems. But you do not need to change the wires each time and turn on the computer to play in the internet with the console.

If you have ADSL, then look at how many network outlets you have in your modem. If more than one, then your modem can work in router mode. You need to figure out how to do it (it should be easy) and then you and the computer will not need to run anything to connect to the Internet, and the console can be connected directly to the modem and nothing in it (in the console) is configured additionally. Everything should work.
  If you are unlucky and there is only one network exit from the modem, then there is nothing to worry about, you can still connect directly, but in the console you need to configure the PPPOE parameters, i.e. Enter the login and password of your ADSL connection, well, you will have to poke the network wires (wire).
  If from your modem only USB output, then you can not connect the modem to the console directly, only through the computer.

If you have a VPN, then you only or through a computer or through a router. Moreover, it is necessary to clarify whether the routers in your network will work at all (most likely they will, but not enough).

In principle, you can connect even if you only have a normal dial-up modem via a computer (the method is similar to what is described below), but does this make sense?

Let me remind you that you need to have an internet connection at home to get from the console to the Internet, there is no "free Internet" on the consoles. And the connection speed will be the same as your connection speed is paid for by the provider (otherwise they ask for anything).

To connect the console to the PC, you must have a free network card in the PC. For example, you have an Internet via a USB modem or there is no Internet at all, then one network card is enough, which you probably have (built-in motherboard). If you have one network card already occupied (for example, a cable from your Internet provider is inserted into it), then you need to buy a second network card (it costs 200-300 rubles).
  Both consoles come with a power cord, and we use it.
  Customize the PC. Decide which network connection in the network connections folder is responsible for the network card to which you will connect the console. You can rename this connection as you like, so as not to be confused in the future.
  Go to the properties of this connection, select the TCP / IP protocol, properties, then you need to set the IP and subnet mask. IP = 192.168.0.1 (this is the IP and no other), mask 255.255.255.0. Everything. Do not touch anything else. All close.

Further, in the network settings of the console, you also need to set the IP handles and mask. The mask is the same, i.e. 255.255.255.0, and the IP should differ with the last digit (but not 1, because it is already in the PC and not more than 255), for example 192.168.0.10. It is also desirable to register the gateway 192.168.0.1 (i.e., the IP of the computer).

Everything, now in theory, your console is connected to computers and should establish a connection. Do not forget that if you want to access media files on your PC, you need to install a media server program on your computer. For example, this can Nero 7 or WMP (video media player) of the latest versions.

If you have a firewall installed, be sure to either disable it or allow access for external requests from the local network 192.168.0.xxx. Otherwise, the console simply will not reach the company.

How to configure the Internet. If you do not have a VPN, then in the properties of the network connection that is responsible for the Internet, put a checkbox on the right tab “allow another user to use the Internet” and indicate the network connection of your console in the list. If you have a VPN, then do the same thing, but in the properties of the VPN connection.

If you have a router, then you don’t need to do anything at all. Just plug the wire into the router. It will display the network settings for your console. Buy a router is the easiest solution to this issue, because the router supports almost any Internet connection (except in rare cases when a special program is launched on the PC to access the Internet). But, the router cuts lokalki speed (about three times). Especially inexpensive router. In principle, for sure if you have a good lokalka (a la Corbin), you will have to tinker with the settings (for example, in order for the DC ++ program to work properly). Usually on the sites and forums of the provider there is a description of how to configure routers. Or call the support.

If during the connection test you get an error on IP - you have incorrectly configured the network computer prefix.
  If you get an error on the DNS - badly shared Internet. Those. the console is connected to the computer, but not to the Internet.
  If the error on the MTU (on the Xbox 360 is a common problem) - then I do not know how to help you. This is a real problem.

Example:
  Here is the network connection folder. Corbina is a VPN connection:


  Settings of the network card to which the Internet is connected (in my case everything is by default, but it is possible that your provider requires you to fill in the addresses with your hands, let it be as it is, it doesn’t matter what is written here):




  Settings network card to which the console is connected:




  This is how the Internet is shared, it’s not important whether it is done in a VPN connection (if you have a VPN like mine) or in the settings of the network card to which the Internet is connected:



  These settings should be in the console:




  If you do everything correctly, you get an error on the DNS (I remind you that this setting was on the machine in the console), then you need to fill in the DNS addresses with handles. Where to get these addresses - read below.

PS3 customization features
  In principle, all the same. Paragraphs setting in the console: Menu Network settings - Special - Wired - Manually configure - Automatic - Manually configure IP - then by points.
  Here the feature is that you need to enter the DNS. Where to get it? On the computer in the lower right corner near the clock we find TVs responding to the Internet’s network connection (if there are no TVs, go to the connection properties and set the checkbox "When connected, display the icon ..."), click the left mouse button, click "Details" in the window that appears:




  record both DNS and enter them in the settings of PS3:




  Another way to find DNS addresses:
  Start - Run - cmd - ipconfig / all
  Look at the line "DNS server".

As a result, you should have an arrow to the right (before that it was not there). The default router is the IP of the computer, i.e. 192.168.0.1.

P.S. After you have set everything up and the output has taken place, you can even put all the settings on the machine in the console and still everything works. But the first time is likely to have to enter everything by hand.

If your provider determines by MAC address
  If your authorization in the provider's network occurs only on the basis of the MAC address (it is also called "physical address"), i.e. you do not run anything extra on your PC when you log into the network and immediately have access to the Internet, then you can record this MAC address in the settings of your Xbox 360 and just as easily go online. Just remove the wire from the computer and plug it into the console.
  Where to look at the MAC address is the same as the DNS (see just above). Where to drive it in the settings of the X360 is easy to find. Drive in without a dash, just a set of numbers and letters. All other network settings in the console should be the same as the network card settings in the PC. Minus the way - you need to constantly poke the wire, which is not very convenient.

Unfortunately in the PS3 can not change the MAC address and this method will not work.

You can use the shared Internet connection in windows system  to share an Internet connection on a computer and an Xbox 360 console. With it, both the console and the computer will be connected to the Internet simultaneously.

To use Internet sharing, you need the following components:

Note.  Most laptops have two network adapters: one for a wired connection, the other for a wireless one.
