AFAIK, there's no way you can use XBC with your current set-up.

Can't use XBC at all without having the PC, modem & XBox all connected in some way.

You need a hub or a router to plug the modem, PC, & XBox into -or- you need a NIC (or 2, if you ditch using USB for the modem) so you can use ICS.

Best bet, if you have £50 or so, is to get a router - then you can play XBC/XBL while also using the PC online.

Otherwise, get a NIC for the PC, & connect the XBox to the PC's NIC & set-up ICS (which would also let you use the XBox & PC online at the same time).
