Great!December 4, 2008 If you haven't already seen the other 85 reviews, then let me tell you that yes it works, and it works very, very well; just as well as the 360 adapter with the exception of the whole WPA-WEP password protection although it doesn't affect me anyways because I don't keep a password on my wireless network. It works outstandingly with both of the xbox models. If you have an old black xbox and a 360, you can hook it up very easily by first installing it on the regular xbox with the included disc and identifying the wireless network of your choice. Then it will memorize it and work with your 360. If it can't connect just test the connection and it will pass and then sign in and it will work. And if any of you don't know, it works with apple base stations.
XBOX Wireless adapter works on SBOX 360November 25, 2008 This thing works awesome on the XBOX 360 and saved myself a good chunk of change too. Just don't insert the cd. XBOX 360 and your computer will do the work for you.
Excellent Product from Xbox!November 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a truly excellent product for the Xbox. It was originally designed for the first Xbox console, but it works flawlessly with the current generation XBox 360.
This product basically works like an ethernet bridge. Once you have set it up, it should work with any device that has an ethernet adapter. You will need to connect it to your XBox 360 at first. Once it has established a connection with your access point, you can then move it to any ethernet-enabled device and it should work.
I could not decide whether to locate my wireless router close to my XBox 360, or close to my desktop computer. I needed an adapter that would work for either one. In the end, I ended up moving the router closer to the computer, away from the XB360. The XB360 is the one using this wireless adapter. The computer is connected directly to the router. But, I could have gone with the opposite set up.
It has been working fine for me. I use the console every day, downloading content from XBox Marketplace. And so far, this adapter has maintained reliable connectivity. Transfer rate is more than satisfactory, as the real bottleneck is the internet connection and not the home network. I also like the fact that this adapter has its own power supply and does not depend on the console's USB port for power.
Microsoft very rarely puts out a product that does not require some type of correction throughout its life cycle. Heck, they are still patching up Windows Xp seven years later! The XBox 360 console itself is still haunted by frequent hardware failures, even three years after its debut. But Microsoft got this one right. This is one microsoft product that works like it should. You will not need to install the included software if you are going to use it on a 360.
Should you buy this adapter, or the one specifically designed for the XB360? This one is about $30 cheaper. But it does have a separate chassis, and does require its own power supply. Whereas the XB360-specific adapter is a small, USB device that snaps and locks onto the back of the console. In other words, the more expensive device is a neater solution, especially if you have a white XB360. All you will see from the front is a small antenna. And the USB adapter will turn off when the console is off. This one will continue to run until you unplug its independent power supply. The adapter is black in color and does not match the white color of the Arcade and the Pro consoles. On the other hand, if you have an Elite console, the black box that is this adapter does not look bad at all. Performance should be roughly same. They are both capable of 802.11G operation.
This is a better deal than the USB adapter. And it is also more versatile because it can work with other ethernet devices. Highly recommended.
Amazing!November 23, 2008 Ok let me tell anyone thinking about ordering this item. For me it works PERFECTLY! I didn't have to change anything about my connection, just plug, update xbox 360, and play. Also I have my xbox 360 downstairs in my basement and connects to my computer 2 floors up so the range is very good. Oh and lets not forget the extra [..] bucks you'll save by getting this over the 360 model! If you are gonna buy this, get from this seller! Shipping was super fast and everything was in perfect condition when I received it. One of the best sellers I've used. Only problem with the product is I couldn't find the encryption code for it but that's probably my own stupidity lol. Bu you really don't need it at all so no worries on my end. :)
This works for the XBox360November 17, 2008 As the title states. I picked it up for use on the 360, and it works. Very easy install. Good alternative to the $99 360 adapter.
