Want to go wireless but...

don't want to pay $100 for the EBow wireless unit.

What are my options? Computer and internet in a different room and I have no router, need suggestion on what to get for less then EBox wants.

You can get a ethernet to wireless converter for 70 bucks on ebay. I have used them in the past and they work really well actually.

I already have a D-link router just want to know if I have to use the usb XBox usb adapter or can i use any usb adapter?ZZno1

There a few options besides the first party adapter, although I recommend just shelling out the 100$. MS products are very expensive, but they are of good quality.

The list of supported alternatives is hidden deep in the bowels of the MS website... search for it with google and poke around xbox.com to find the list.

If u have a laptop connect ur 360 to ur laptop with an ethernet cable. Then go to manage network connection. highlight both the LAN, and the wireless connection then right click and choose bridge connections. wait 2 minutes and ur set.

I wouldnt go wireless unless you plan on haveing it being the only thing on when you playraylewisnfl52

Listen to this guy. I play with many people who are wireless and they always lag whenever they have more than one thing running off their connection. Just stay wired. I can download crap from my computer and play on live lag free.

Just curious... WTF is EBox? Is that some new hip-hop term or something?

Its a bit complicated when u bridge the connection right click on the wireless adapter ond bridge it while both are highlighted. if that doesnt work try the lan. If that doesnt work enable UPnP. IF that doesnt work check youtube for a tutorial for a better explanation. Trust me it works.
