Title: Wireless Adapters
Post by: Phantaxus on October 24, 2005, 11:08:00 AM

At the moment there is only the Xbox360 wireless adapter. MS will only allow authorised hardware to work with the Xbox360

ummm not really, a wireless ethernet bridge will work, and there is also a lan port.

Muffinman i haven't seen you in a while.  Do the wireless adapters lose to much speed or are they fine.

The Xbox wireless adapter works with the xbox 360.  That's what I use.

What did you guys do to set up your wireless adapter.  I got it connected to my wireless signal but it can't determine an ip adress.  I even plugged in the ethernet cord and it is detecting everything but when I use the adapter it doesn't work.

Here's what im workin with:
360 wireless adapter
Linksey's wireless g router

I didnt wanna fork over $100 for the adapter nor the wireless to ethernet adapters for xbx 1 so what i did was purchased a $50 wireless g router from wlamart (wrt54g) and flashed the firmware hyperwrt which allows you to change it to a bridge. Now not only can i connect my 360 but also my ps2, gamecube and my htpc to my network.

You can find out more info on linksys routers and the various firmware available from Linksysinfo.org

I was wondering what kind of bridge you guys are using?  I just bought a D-Link Wireless router, but I dont feel like spending another $100 for MSs wireless adapter (which is a ripoff since you can just buy a USB2 adapter for like $40).  Has anyone tried using one btw?  I know someone said he tried it and it didnt work but was it a USB 2.0 adapter?  Well if that doesnt work, im still thinking of just getting a wireless ethernet bridge for $70 which is still cheaper than $100.  If anyone is using a bridge, are you using one that is on this list, because the one that I want to get is not on it, and I was wondering if it will still work.

I use the linksys game adapter. It is the B and although my network is at G speed the adapter only get 11Mbps or w/e which is still fine. It worked perfect last xbox and now perfect with my 360. Plus they are the best thing since sliced bread for an LAN party in a big house.
