Hi, Any wireless or wired & wireless router will do it. most routers handle high speed broadband 8+ ( but read the specks)

Get a wireless dongle for the 360
get wireless or wired card for your PC ( depends on your choice)
pc's wired to router, xbox wireless, works for good for us & we use a crappy BtVoyger2091 the HomeHub works well too.

keep the cable for the PC (more fast under adsl2+ tan any wifi...) and get the wifi thing for xbox360... :)

The xbox is simple to setup once connected to your router, I use a wireless router for my laptop so I can sit where I want , but my PC is wired and my xbox is wired for gaming.

You might not even need a router. Some cable modems and even modems still have the capacity to perform the function of a router, even if they only have one output.

I owned just such a cable modem, and then later a usb modem, both of which just required a cheap network switch and nothing more to split the connection into up to 8 other machines.

It should cost you about 15 quid (30 dollars) or less. ...I got one for six pounds from RL Supplies.

Right now they have these in for less than nine pounds:
