Help Please.

I have many problems with this but it may be solved.

If I have a router , and a Wireless Network Adapter can i just plug in the Network Adapter to my 360 and then access xbox live like that? Or do i need other bits and bobs.

Also what do i do once i have done this ??? Do i need to plug in an ethernet cable???

re: Help Please.

If it's a Wireless Router, then no, you don't need to plugin the Ethernet cable. Just plugin the Wireless Network Adapter, and setup the 360 to use your network (You may need to find WEP/WPA keys for the 360 to get access, or add it to the MAC whitelist depending on your router's security).

re: Help Please.

Also, you might have some ports blocking the way. You should look up which ports are used for Live just incase you have to open them.

If you're going to plug it direct into the modem, you have no need to spend $100 on the wireless adapter.

Dude. You seem to be completely technology blind. I would suggest reading the box that you wireless adapter came in. Sometimes they make little nifty pictures.

re: Help Please.

Either way you go, you're going to need a router (wired or wireless). Unless your modem has another out line which I doubt it. How far is the computer with the modem from your 360?
