I have an Xbox 360.  I wanted to get online but I didn’t want to spend the $89 for the Microsoft Wireless Network Adapter.   My modem is three rooms away so I couldn’t make a direct connect and I couldn’t find an easy way to get connected.  The result is that I ended up buying the Microsoft product at the inflated price.  The price has come down a little since I purchased it but I just came a across a site that will let you turn a wireless router into an Xbox adapter. I wish I had found this before I shelled out the money. As long as you have a wireless network in your house and a second wireless router you can easily get your Xbox connected. Or course if you have plenty of money you can always just but the adapter.
