Posts: 4,813 | damn, i didn't even know if the regular xbox had a wireless adapter. i'm betting that you'll have to buy a 360 one. and wired is better and more stable anyway, every wireless adaptor i've used to the 360 was a load of crap

Posts: 2,430 | i've got a wireless on my 360...haven't had an issues with it, and the speed seems to maintain. but it costs 100 bucks for that thing, and that is BS.
i am sure you could go the the MS site and see what it says about an xbox wireless workin on the 360. you never know, because some of their other stuff crossed over.

I unfortunately must run wireless but there is an upside in that it's tidier lol. |

It's now sitting rolled up in a heap, waste of 20 notes. |

i am sure you could go the the MS site and see what it says about an xbox wireless workin on the 360. you never know, because some of their other stuff crossed over. | ive checked the ms site it doesnt say anything about compatibility.
yeah i know the differences between running wireless and wired connection. i cant run cables to were my 360 is currently set-up. if it was in my room it would be a different story. but i hate playing on a small 20' tv compared to something thats bigger and supports 1080p. |

Posts: 2,430 | i totally agree with pepper, i would prefer wired over wireless. but like everyone else in this forum, where my 360 is vs. where my modem is, i was having to run 100 ft ethernet cables. and those are a little spending, and having to run a cord to my compy, xbox, and at the time, my wii, that was 3 100 foot cables running around the house. so, the wireless cleaned that up pretty good, plus allows me to use this laptop anywhere. but my speeds have suffered a bit, from 137 to about 120 download (not that that helps with my ping any when i am trying to find some decent connections on live).

Posts: 919 | you should be ashamed Blaster. you're an American and you missed the Superbowl. yeah i saw it and most people wanted the Patriots to lose. probably the best ending to any Superbowl that included the greatest play.
