A while ago when setting up Xbox Live, I bought an Ethernet cable to do the job and connect to the router. However, it wasn't even long enough, and it looked horrible too, to have a long wire across the floor. I decided that a good investment that my brother told me about would be the Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter. It is a small grey box with a few features on it to point out. It has a Green LED to the left on one side with the Xbox 360 logo beside it. There is an antenna on the top, which is used to receive signal from your wireless router, which will send it out via its antenna. It only works with wireless routers, and that is the whole idea of the ...  Read the complete review

The range extends up at least 2 flights of stairs (estimated distance 15 metres directly and through 2 walls) and allows you to X box online. The device which should have come in built sadly needs buying at an extra for around £40 and then you also need to purchase an subscription to the X box Live service. For those wanting to read my experience carry on. To use Xbox live the easiest way with out spreading cables around your house is wireless and to do this you're almost certainly going to be buying this adaptor (though I ...  Read the complete review

Introduction It is hard to believe that in this day and age where wifi internet connections are the norm, that the Xbox 360 console, does not ship with a built in wireless network adapter. The Playstation 3 has this built in and even the Wii manages it too, so why have Microsoft decided to omit it from the Xbox? In my opinion, the answer is simple, it is hard work to bridge a connection from your laptop and the majority of Xbox users will not have their console in close proximity to their router. Therefore, the only other alternative is to spend £60 and buy the Microsoft Wireless network adapter. Microsoft have been cute here, there are plenty of wireless ...  Read the complete review
