in short, not really - as a wireless bridge point that a ethernet cable from the xbox could connect to would need power and hence would not be mobile as it would be plugged into the wall socket. I havent seen any portable wireless solution that wasnt bulld for a laptop.

You will tend to get a lot of lag if you go wireless on your xbox. I had a setup where my xbox was only 10ft away from my pc (next room) but the amount of lag I got was unreal, so I ended up ripping up my floorboards and putting some network cable down instead.
My suggestion would be stick with a cable if possible as wireless is all that.
I used a belkin 54g wireless adapter.

hmm you must have had other issues, i share the wireless from my laptop to the xbox (via the laptops ethernet port) and play games almost lag free without issues
