Cheap and easy way to get internet to my xbox 360... will it work?

right, I have an Ethernet card on my PC and I have a high high high speed internet connection, I just got a 360 and its in my bedroom, so i don't interrupt the family's use of the main television... anyway... my theory is to buy an ethernet to usb adaptor, and then connect the internet to my pc, via the usb, which CAN be done, then I will purchase a 20 meter ethernet cable and use windows ICS to transfer it to my bedroom. sounds too good to be true really... its only going to cost about 30 bucks, please tell me anything that MIGHT be the problem with this =)

Update:

nah its a cable connection, otherwise it'd be easy =)

    in case you have a working laptop or laptop purely hook the ethernet cable from the 360 to the laptop, then enable the laptop to share its community connection via doing that, pass to regulate panel, community/internet connections, then community connections, then astonishing click on your internet connection, pass to extend, and then decrease than the tab "internet connection sharing", positioned a verify on"enable different community purchasers.........." Its much less annoying than it sounds.
