That could work if I moved the router from his room (which is seriously on
the agenda anyway).  Move him to wireless for both the desktop machine and
the xbox.  I'm already there with my laptop.

I'll have to check and see if the XBox wireless network adapter is 11g or
not, or put a WAP repeater in his room.  I'm running 11gturbo, and if any
connected device doesn't support gturbo, then they all run at straight g.
