so how is the X360 wifi adaptor?
« on: October 08, 2007, 07:34:49 PM »
In my new place I need to run my PS3 and X360 via wifi.

Is the X360 wifi adaptor worth the 80$? Any issues?

I think you can just use a normal wireless gaming adapter.

I think id rather just rokk the official XBOX360 wi-fi adaptor.

As far as routers go - I have a strong WPA2 wifi network based on the new Apple Airport extreem and Air-tunes extenders in the far corners of the flat.

It works fine here too. My 360 is about 50 Feet away or so from my Wireless Router. Not sure about WPA but I do remember having issues with 128bit WEP soooooo :/

The Xbox 360 adapter will support WPA, but not WPA2.

That's what I do - my Xbox 360 leeches from my PC.  ICS ftw!

So, if you have a wireless network in your house the 360 cant just talk to it?

Okay I'll be getting one of these then. I'd imagine a 360 fails to an extent if it isnt online.

this thing was decent yet expensive considering that the X360 should have wifi out of the box (especially the elite model i have)

it clips right on the back dorky looking antennae and all - but there was no set-up and it seems stable.
