Hi GreekGuitarGuy,

The best way to use your laptop WiFi to connect your Xbox to the internet is using connection sharing Internet (ICS). The following link gives step by step instructions how to set up your laptop and Xbox 360 with ICS:

Since it is a forum of Windows, I would recommend trying to rely more on the forums found here Xbox: http://forums.xbox.com/.

Hope this helps to answer your question!
