    First off, any hub will work fine. On every hub there will be an uplink port. You connect your modem to this port. Then jsut plug your xbox and pc into two other ports and your ready to go. Its that simple Also, the Linksys hub is a good choice for $30.

    And here is the more detailed info you requested(All cables need to be regular CAT-5 cable, NOT crossover cable):

    Cable 1: Connect from your modem to the 'uplink' port on the hub
    Cable 2: Conenct from your PC network card to and empty port on the hub
    Cable 3: Connect from your xbox to another empty port on the hub
    Thats it
