Default Avoid buying the Xbox360 Wireless piece

Is it possible?
I have a WRT54GS that will be connected to my xbox and desktop PC(when I finally build it) through an ethernet wire and a WNDR3300 that is connected to the internet modem.
How do I get these two things to communicate with each other?
Tried to make a text image of what Im talking about

You want your PC to communicate with your 360, you mean? So long as the PC and 360 are connected to the same wireless router, they should be able to communicate. Whether one is via wireless and one via wired connection won't matter. I hope I understood your question.

Not exactly what Im trying to do. I need the two wireless routers to bring internet access to their wired devices. In otherwords one of these routers needs to act like the wireless piece for the xbox.

You can set up network sharing on the PC (I know you can under Vista, not sure about XP) and use the Ethernet port on the computer to talk to the Xbox. The PC will have the wireless adapter (I'm hoping it's USB or your motherboard has two Ethernet ports)

Simply go to your network control panel, right click on your Ethernet adapter, go to properties, and set it up for sharing. (I'm not 100% sure of the process, but I know that's the general direction).

Is that what you are referring to?
