Hi there, Can I connect the New Dish Network VIP 922 Sling directly to my Mac Mini? as this sits behind my Flat Screen and I would like to pull the wireless from my Mac Mini. Is there any other benfits?
Kind Regards
James in Dallas
P.S. There are things I know & there are things I do not. |

| Sure, you can setup Internet Sharing to share from AirPort to computers using Ethernet. It's under Sharing in System Preferences. It's pretty straightforward, but let me know if you need help. |

| Does Internet sharing work with Xbox 360? I might move mine to my bedroom where my Mini is, but don't want to buy a wireless adapter for the 360. |

It sure does. You just have to manually input some settings into the xbox 360. This guide worked for me. it should work for you. http://www.joystiq.com/2006/07/17/how-to-share-your-macs-internet-connection-with-your-xbox/ _________________ 2010 Macbook Pro 2.53 Core i5, Anti-glare screen, 500 gb 7200 rpm HD, 4gb RAM
