Good news is with my Xbox 360, I can play on live too.

Bad news: my console is in a different room from my internet connection and I can't connect the two

Anyone know what I can do to solve this dilemma? I was kinda looking forward to multi-player GTAIV fun with the GTAS folk.

you could always move your tv and xbox.

Get a longer cable to connect the rooms (1 metre ~ 0,75ÃƒÂ¢ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡Ã‚Â¬)? Don't get wifi, it will ruin everything. Wifi is like the worst thing ever.
//Edit: Or get the VGA HD AV cable and connect your xbox to your pc screen (would require cable switching all the time tho), then use the pc network cable.

A link to a longer cable would be appreciated, it would be my preferred option.

Cos I ain't that wise in the technologicalisticalogy department, I wasn't sure what kind of thing to try and get and what would work. I'll look into that rj45 thing though, sounds suspiciously like KY jelly but whatever.

the RJ45 is a normal "network cable" which I also recommended

Exactly what those guys said. I don't know how much they'd be over in Scotland, but here in BC I bought a 15Meter ethernet cable for $18.00.
