I want to move some of my videos to the laptop hard drive, but the XBOX doesn't see the Laptop.
They are all in the same workgroup CROSSOVER
Is this possible?

On your own, 'cause that's one hack ass setup and has zip to do with XBMC.

The cheapest hub I have seen in stores was 35 dollars. This was significantly cheaper and works just as well. Maybe what I'm trying to do is not possible.

Could you connect the laptop and xbox using just one crossover cable and move the files?

My XBOX hard drive is like 8 gigs, so I don't want to FTP.
I want to stream. All my media is on my desktop, but I want to use my laptop to stream media too. I want the media to go from my laptop through the desktop to my XBOX.
I looked at the switch and I think I may purchase it.

My bad, I mean use 2 crossover cables. I have 2 ethernet jacks on my computer and one is used to connect to the laptop and the other is used to connect to the XBOX.
