Gabriel asked:


Can you use the network adapter from the orginal Xbox and use it for the Xbox 360? Cuz the 360 one is $100.00 and it's rediculous pricing. I need internet access to play Xbox Live from upstairs. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    You should be able too.

    Everyone- You Don’t NEED the 360 adapter. Any simple adapter from the company that makes your router will work too.

    I’m not too sure but you should check out the XBOX website or call customer service and ask a pro.

    You can get any USB wireless adapter. I bought one for $20 on ebay (wireless B USB for xbox360)

    Yes..

    The original Xbox wireless adapter does work with the Xbox 360.. it connects to the 360 via the ethernet port..

    Check the Compatible Home Networking Equipment list (link below) The original Xbox wireless adapter (MN-740) is listed under the Wireless Bridges heading..

    The only USB wireless adapter which works with the Xbox 360 is the Microsoft one.. the other USB adapters need drivers which the Xbox 360 does not have..

    Good luck..
