For the 360 support to work you just need to make sure you got the latest version of PS3 Media Server(this threads topic)
You need to be connected to the same network, doesn't matter if you're connected through wifi or by cable. (Allthough I recommend cable for hd streaming)

Shouldn't be any problem at all, but if you do experience some problems and if you have two networking protocols(ex. 1 ethernet, 1 wifi), try forcing/choosing the one that connects your PC or MAC to the network, by clicking on "General Configuration" tab then change the, under "Network Setting..." "Force networking on interface", -dropdown menu to the protocol which is connected to your router.

If everything checks out okay, on the first tab, the "Status" tab you should see an xbox 360 picture.

In your Xbox360 go to My Xbox > Video Library, you should see a new option; "PS3 Media Server [your cpu name]". Just hit that and you should be able to browse through your shared folders.

BTW. You can also access the "Video Library" by pressing the "xbox-button" and go to "Media" and select "Video Library"

Hope that helps you, once you go "PS3 Media Server" -you never go back!
