You should go to Network settings in the Xbox Dashboard. Enter the WEP / WP / WPA 2 key, which will be provided on your router. Enter the key and the connector, should start to acquire the IP's etc

Have a look at this page on the MS site.
You will need to know what security your router is using - is it a VM supplied router and if so which one? The MS page has some hints on how to find the router config.

(If not already solved)

Have you 100% got Xbox Live Gold Membership?
I presume, you have the wireless adapter?
Is it a genuine Wireless adapter for the Xbox?
When you run the Network test, what does it fail on?
