Connect to the wireless network using a PC, accept the agreement, then disable wireless on the PC and give the Xbox 360 the MAC address of the PC's wireless adapter. The last approach was interesting, and it's actually easy to change the MAC address of an Xbox 360:. Under My Xbox, open the System Settings application. Navigate down to Network Settings.

Select Configure Network. Select Additional Settings. Select Alternate MAC Address. Enter the new MAC Address (copied from the PC) and press Done.
Exit all the menus. If you copy the MAC address from a PC, remember that you can't have that PC connected to the same wireless network as the Xbox at the same time.
