Link

for the record I use an ethernet cable just found this interesting...

thats sounds better than dishing out 100 bucks

but not better than just plugin in a ethernet cable lol

i may try this tho

10 bucks says that doing that would lag like crap.

my router is on the 2nd floor and the xbox is in the basement. i just got a 60tf ethernet cable and hid it along the wall and in the basements ceiling, becuase my ceiling in the basement is a bunch of tiles you can take off

instead of buying that contraption...(crappy linksys router) just hardwire it to your laptop and turn on internet sharing. If your already wireless on a lappy then your xbox will pick up the signal. honestly tho why would you want to play wirelessly especially because its not intergrated. there is tons of lag...lolodadon

Well there is the added annoyance of needing your laptop on whenever you want to play Live, which is also a needless waste of energy. The linked method is much more practical.

all i said was if you have a laptop its a little bit easier just to turn on internet sharing then to have to configure and plug into a router. also if you already have a laptop then you also save the $14.

Thanks for the heads up. The main reason I don't have a 360 yet is how expensive the wifi dongle is. I'm a single player kind of guy, but want my system connected for updates, and to download XBLA games, demoes, expansion content etc. Lag isn't a big issue for such things, so this gives me a cheaper solution and a reason to take the plunge.
