xbox to Mac via Airport

First of all, i'm a noob, so be kind. Hello to you all!

Here's the craic: I've recently bought an xbox and was wondering if i could hook it up to my Mac PowerPC G5 via airport to access xbox live. I currently have a broadband connection via a USB ADSL modem hooked up to my Mac. The console is too far away from my computer to hook the pair up with an ethernet cable. Is my request possible?

You can buy a Linksys Wireless adapter for the Xbox (works with all systems ps2, xbox etc) and get a wireless router for $30 avg anywhere. That will be the best option. or just buy a really long Ethernet cable and run it across the room from the modem to the xbox just when you use it. i just did a complete wirless network in my house, Vonage, Tivo, PS3, Xbox360, 2 Macs and a dell all on G band wireless. Soo easy and NO WIRES. Love it!
