Do you use a router or direct connection to the modem?

If you're using any ol' cheap USB adapter, it won't work. Only the offical M$ adapter works that way. You could get somethling like this (http://games.dlink.com/products/?pid=383), but it's close to the same price as the other device. If you need it cheaply, eBay is really the only option.
