I tried this guys Idea:

1. Enable wifi tethering on your device

2. Connect PC to wireless signal

3. Open Network and Sharing center (start/control panel/ network and internet/network and sharing center)

4. Click change adapter settings

5. Right click on your shared internet connection ( in this case should be your WIFI connection), select properties, sharing tab, check: Allow other network users to control or disable the shared internet connection.

6. Stay on the sharing tab and click settings, uncheck everything under settings, now click add:

I still have a moderate nat it once said I had open, but I still couldn't join some of my friends. If I paid for VM's wifi tether would I get an open nat? or would it still be strict. Someone also said you could buy another ip is that possible?
 
As I understand it, you're connecting the phone to the internet. Then you're connecting the computer to the phone. Then you're connecting the X-Box to the computer.

If I'm right, it can't work, since you're doing two address translations. Go to PortForward's Forum • Index page and see if someone will lead you, step by step, in setting up the computer as a switch, not a router. It's a bit counter-intuitive but it can be done.
 
Thank You I registered and posted my question no response still, but I hope I get on. Open Nat is a dream at this point
