So anyways, I was going to go buy the 360 wireless adapter until I read this:

http://www.geeksaresexy.net/2007/10/02/how-to-cheap-wireless-for-your-xbox-360/

Basically, its a guide that helps you use your old wireless router as a internet receiver aka bridge. All you do is install the firmware (more firmware depending what type of router you have) and you edit the settings that you have to edit in order to make it work on the 360 but you first test the connection on the PC, and so on.

You can brick your router if you do the steps wrong... but there's a lot of fixes on Google for that if it does happen.

So yeah, Microsoft didn't get my $100.

You can also just buy an old xbox router for like 20$.


I used mine with my 360 and it works fine.

Can't win em all.

The 360 doesn't have built-in Wifi, so you'll need to buy an adaptor if you want to make it wireless.

The Wii doesn't have a built-in ethernet port, so you need an adaptor if you want to use that.
