There are two ways to connect to Xbox live...

1) Plug a connection cord into the back of your 360 (Under the USB Port) and plug second end into Modem/Router.

2) Try and connect to XBL, If it fails then go to "Test Connection"

Second way is to,

1) Buy a wireless connection adaptor for the 360

2) Plug it into the USB port on the 360

3) If #2 fails then Go to Test Connection and go to Configure Connection (or something similar)

4) Once in Configure then select your Modem/Router Name.

5) Test Connection again.

Do you need to have a wireless adapter on your computer plus an adapter on your XBox 360 to get XBox live?

No, what i did is i took the ethernet cable that came with my xbox, connected it to my laptop, and connected my laptop to the internet via wireless router. The only other way that doesn't involve a wireless adapter for your 360 is to connect your 360 to your computer via an ethernet cable (not sure if you need a router for this but i might as well list it), but the laptop-connect is the "most effecient/cheapest" way, and the adapter-connect is the "best connection/signal" way.
