its along shot and usb networking is errrrr.............crap.
but in network connections if you can see the usb (ntl) connection and a lan connection, you need to bridge the 2 together and then plug your xbox into your lan connection on the back of your pc.

you can get a router for a very cheap amount. i would suggest this route. you need only plug it in then and away you go.

why have you got 2 lan connections?
you need to bridge the lan your gona connect your xbox to to the broadband mini port.
your probabaly gona have to drop the firewall just till you get it connected
