360 wireless adapter question

**2die4** · 26th January 2007

right i'm after a wireless adapter for my 360, have seen the official USB one for around the �50/�60 mark. Was wondering if any USB wireless adapter will work instead of the official USB one, eg something like this one:

I do have a network adapter for my original Xbox which I could always use but it would be easier to have one specifically for the 360 instead of swapping the whole time.

cheers guys

only the official adapter will work via usb m8

I was gonna suggest a wireless bridge but it sounds like that's what you have already for the xbox1

cheers for the reply m8. yeah I have a netgear wireless bridge already for my xbox which i use as a media centre. Looks as though i'm going to have to bite the bullet and pay the 50 quid asking price for the official one

another bridge would be cheaper....

would a 10/100 switch with uplink port not work?

This is advice Biggy7 gave to me when I had the same problem.

get one of these: http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/113699

with this you can turn any device that has a Ethernet port into a wireless device

so it will work for xbox1, ps2 and xbox 360.

with the official device it will only work on the 360 and thats it.
