Well as you can tell my college wifi is beyond awful and i'm trying to connect to xbox live. I tried just connecting to the wifi regularly and it didn't work until I registered the mac address but once I got on live I couldn't play multiplayer , start partys, or even update when I put in a game. So once again I'm back at square one, until my roommate told me I should try sharing the wifi connection from laptop to my xbox by plugging my ethernet into my laptop(sharing the wifi) and running into xbox. It worked and I could do all the stuff I couldn't do but now today its saying my "ethernet doesn't have a valid IP configuration" - FML. What am I supposed do, any advice would be appreciated?

if you want to fix it, your wifi should work with just your xbox not plugged into the laptop. im sure your college has a mac filter and thats making you not connect to online you need to contact them and tell them your xbox's mac address so you can use it.
