Ok. If I were you and gonna get a new router, I would recommend the linksys wireless-N router. The N series seems to be better than the G series for some tech reason. I have one and I have no probs with MW2. But, I did call linksys and had them to walk me thru on setting it up for optimum band width, in other words made it as fast as possible to allow a good connection to live. It has multiple ports so you can connect your PC, xbox, etc.
Now, as far as convincing your dad. All I can say, is that you need it to be able to maintain a connection while gaming. I mean he spent that money on a new slim and you can't even play online? (hint,hint) Anyway, good luck my friend and hope this helped.
Oh, and if all else fails, just disconnect the PC from the modem, and plug the xbox into it directly. Thats what I had to do until I got my router. Just remember to hook the PC back up after gaming, lol. Content provided by Yahoo Answers.
