Can I hook up xbox 360 to my PC?

So I just got a xbox 360 and I want to get online at my house but I am running a wireless network and my router is upstairs. That being said, I have a PC connected downstairs to my tv and it is using a linksys wusb54g wireless connection. My question is can I somehow use a ethernet cable between my PC and xbox to piggy back the internet to my xbox. And how would I do that? If not how do I set up another wusb54g with my 360 to get my xbox hooked up to the internet.
Thank you

Best way is with a dedicated Linksys wireless game adapter.

I would use that but I am trying to avoid paying $100 to get internet, I could just buy the official xbox one but I can find the linksys ones for around thirty bucks
