I will admit that it would be nice to be able to plug in any WiFi adapter and have it work. However this is quick and simplest way to connect through wireless.If your internet router is near enough use the hard line the Xbox 360 comes with, but, if you are 10-50 ft away from it or already have something plugged into that spot this is the way to go.
The Product worked like a charm, and Amazon sold it to me for $10.00 for cheaper than anywhere else. I bought one for my friend and one for myself. Thanks Amazon.
Xbox live was already a well established facet of the Microsoft Console experience. I wouldn't even go so far as to use the word "install", instead let's say it's easy to plug into your Xbox. Unfortunately, this should've been included with the system or at least shelved at half of what it's going for. It's the same thing with the 120gb harddrive. I have a wireless network set up at home due to a couple laptops and various gaming systems.
It's painfully easy to install. Do this once and you'll never have to again. This great for those who have a wireless network (or for those who live close to someone dumb enough to have an unsecured wireless network). I realize the 360 was ahead of the curve as far as the current generation goes, but the exodus from "wired" to "wireless" was well underway when the 360 hit the shelves.
With the amount of content available via the marketplace they should've known that 20g would not be enough. Why did I give this 3 stars.The product, flawless as it may be, is $90 dollars for a little plastic USB network adapter that should've been integrated in the first place. I've had this for about a year and a half and have never lost connection. Synced flawlessly with my network, took MAYBE 10 minutes including the various searching and connection testing.
So. Anyway, I digress.Bottom line: A virtually flawless wireless network adapter for the 360.
Oh, and by the way, the afore mentioned people who just plug in their linksys router and start using it. Otherwise, just buy any USB wifi adapter and plug it in the back of the 360. For those of you who are still behind the wireless movement going on for years in people's houses (setting up their internal home networks), you may have to buy this expensive piece of plastic. It's not like Microsoft secretly designed the Xbox 360 to only work with Xbox 360 labeled products. Thanks for the free internet.
I have completely enjoyed this product. I have never even had laggy gameplay yet. I have never had a lost correction. It was very simple and easy to install and use. It has worked perfectly for me afterwards. I would recommend this product all the way without a doubt.
