Its Worth It January 31, 2006 Brandon A. Bobb (Austell, GA USA) 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
Once you have your wireless network up, this item will connect you to xbox live with no problems! Who wants to sit around for hours trying to configure a game adapter? Not me. I think it worth the price because it does the hard work for you. For real though, this is a great item because you no longer have to unplug it from an outlet. It is powered by the Xbox 360 rear usb port. So, really..you get what you pay for. I am pleased with this product. Thanks
Great Product January 14, 2006 19 out of 21 found this review helpful
Like everyone has said. This product is great, it works and its so simple to setup and along with that its fast to setup. Someone else mentioned it having a low range, this is not the case. I was able to detect 3 other wireless networks around my neighborhood. This device may be $99.99, but if you have tried other means to get a wireless network going and it nothing has worked this is your best bet. The adapter fits into the lone USB port in the back of your 360 console, where just above or to the left of the USB port (depending on how you set your console up) the rest of the network adapter snaps into place and thats it. From there all you have to do is turn on your 360 and go to the guide menu. Go to the media section and click network settings. Select the wireless network option all the way at the bottom. Your adpater will now attempt to locate any wireless networks in range. Once it has finished that it will display a list of networks in the area. Do not get worried if you don't see your network on the list. This happened in my case and all you have to do is click the specify unlisted network. There you just have to enter you SSID, enter if it has a WEP code, if it does you have to select the kind of WEP it is (128-BIT or another one that I can't remember right now). Then just enter the WEP code. If your network does appear on the list just select it and enter the WEP code if needed. Once all of that has been entered choose the test Xbox Live Connection and if everything was entered properly, it will say you have connection to Xbox Live. It may so complicated, but really it only takes up to 2 mins. to get it all setup and checked. I am sure most of you know this already as well, but if you need to find the information needed for the wireless connection it can be found on the computer where your wireless modem is hooked up. I hope this helps all those seeking to buy this product, the price is high, but if you want no hassle what so ever then this product is perfect for you.
Works Amazingly January 3, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
IT Has NEVER lost connection and has a very long distance. This product is great if you live in a big house (1750+ sq. ft.) and you don't want to mess around with wires. 5 Stars
Good Buy December 31, 2005 Christopher (Brooklyn, NY USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Well I bought this device all the way back on New Year's Day after waiting for months for my 360 to come in. So I hooked it up and it worked as well but after a few days it was losing the signal. Since it was inside a TV cabinet surrounded by my other electronic devices I guess it was interrupting the signal. So as you know the device mounts out the back of the 360 so I removed it and let it hang out with the wires in the back of my TV. Now it works fine and I get a constant 4 bars. No lagg or disconnects now. Very good, just don't get to use it much since they have yet to release games worth playing online. In the coming months that should change and I will get allot of use out of it. Good product overall just somewhat overpriced. Worth it though since it isn't wire messy like other products.
Expensive but well worth it December 29, 2005 Wisconbadgers (NJ) 8 out of 10 found this review helpful
My 360 is in my room. Our Router is in our basement, so the signal has to travel 100ft and through 2 floors. The signal comes in almost 100%, much better than even the one for my computer. Amazing, but too overpriced. Microsoft is trying to make money on the loss producing the 360's. I read in a magazine it costs about $544 dollars to make the $400 xbox.
