    x-box link up

    is there any way i can link up my x-box without any wires.

    say with a wire-less ntworking.

    i know you can link up to pc's together on a wire-less network, with a range of 100ft in doors or 400ft out doors.
    my mate lives about 150 - 200ft away from me.

    any help is welcome.

    yes mate, you would need a wireless router and wireless adapters for the xbox and any pc's you wanted to hook up, the router also allows you to connect to the internet providing you have broadband or adsl

    it depends on your house - the thickness of your walls and there location. Wireless kit generally still connects at the higher distances or in houses with thick walls but as it struggles more the speed decreases.

    its hard to give figures unless its in open direct line of sight.
