Yes you would just connect the xbox to your wireless network. The coverage will be the problem with wifi cards and running your xbox on wifi out of a wifi card just is not "best practice". Can you run a bank in town on 3g? Yes, you can. Can you play XBL on a VZW card in Edinburg? Hmm.... probably not. This is what I was getting at.
Sorry Tony, wasn't doubting you and your data is there, but those stupid cards just aren't as reliable. Especially when trying to play a game. This from the experience of doing it, it's not based on graphs or data provided by a wireless carrier. Sure, intown, where the coverage is great, you can do almost everything you need. In Edinburg though, I highly doubt the coverage is good enough to do much. I just wasn't wanting to get his hopes up for an awesome experience on a lackluster piece of hardware.
