Look for drivers for the usb-thang?
What's the USB model/name/stuff? You can most likely use Vista drivers to use on W7...not sure
Its a Westell C90
I want to use the Ethernet for my Xbox and the USB for my Comp.
Thats how i I had it set up on my XP.
How would I go about finding the USB Drivers?
Usually they're on the CD that came with the USB dongle. I assume it's a wireless USB reciever/transmitter for wireless internet? Either than that you'll have to Google around for "Westell C90".
Its not a wireless thing, its a little modem thing.
I have a feeling its unsupported my Windows 7 atm.
Centurytel was useless so I guess I gotta call MS.
It's a USB modem? Yea it might be unsupported, because those aren't exactly a popular choice for networking iirc.
Nooo, its a modem connected through a modem.
Is that what you meant? Or do you think I mean those little wireless anywhere USB modems?
Because it has a USB and an Ethernet plug. I want to use USB on my computer and Ethernet on my xbox. Got me?
Btw, microsoft was useless in helping also...
You mean a modem connected to a router right? You don't connect modems to modems :giggle:.Quote:

Last I checked most of those don't work with both the USB and the Ethernet at the same time (get yourself a router like a real man!). No idea where you're going to find drivers either way, just wanted to see if I understood you.
Lets see if we can get this straight...

Are you trying to do the one on the top-left or the bottom-right?
The one on the bottom-right would require you to bridge the connection through it to the other modem.
