Buy a multiple port cable/DSL broadband router (I have a Trendnet). I bought it at Microcenter for $10, but your mileage may vary.

Furthermore, you can connect your 360 to the multiple port router, connect your multiple port router to your wireless router and connect the wireless router to your modem, hence I have an open NAT. I hope this isn't confusing. Do not ask me why this works, but it does. I have had two different wireless routers and I had to 'adapt and overcome' to the same problem with both routers.

Both were wireless by the way. I called my router manufacturer and to no avail they were unable to provide a remedy let alone a fix for my problem.
