1. Get yourself a wireless adapter for your Xbox 360 -OR- connect your X360 directly to your router with an ethernet wire - Whatever is easier/cheaper. Either way, this gets your PC out of the picture altogether as it is obviously creating a bottleneck and preventing Xbox Live players from finding your X360.
2. You will need to ensure that the router is either Xbox Live compatible -OR- is forwarding the correct ports to your Xbox 360 (once you have established what your X360's NAT IP address is) Your router should have instructions on how to access these settings via your web browser. More information on which ports you need to forward are here:

Here's an example of what you need to do (this will vary from router to router):

Remember - if your router is 'Xbox Live Compatible' - you probably won't need to set anything up.
3. Once everything is set, run the connection test again and see if your test resolves 'Open' on the NAT test. Once this is achieved, you should be ready to rock and roll.
4. Avoid large downloads on your PC while playing on Xbox Live.
