Good Alternative To M$ Wireless Adapter?
« on: January 01, 2007, 11:21:00 PM »

Hey I was browing alternatives for the M$ Wireless Adapter because the price of it (I'm broke). And came across this NetGear XE102 what do you guys think?

In addition someone gave me this product - doesnt look reliable but what anyone heard about it? Dongle

Also - What are some other cheap alternatives to the M$ Wireless Adapter?

- Thanx.

the netgear thing will work, but may cost more, since you'll need two of them.  The dongle will probably not work since there's no way to get a 360 driver.  I'm using a Buffallo Ethernet converter which cost me 70$, but has 4 ports for my consoles and htpc.  You can use any ethernet converter (Linksys and netgear both have some) just make sure they support whatever your wireless router is using (WPA, WEP, 802.11G or B or A etc.)  the cheapest way to go, if you're not going to be downloading a lot, will be the logitech playlink

which was created for the xbox/ps2 generation, but will work with any ethernet port (like the one on your 360)
