Great for everything except Media Center HD Videos June 14, 2008
In a nutshell, this adapter is simple, elegant, and functional. It's perfect for connecting with XBOX Live, and works for all Media Center Extender needs except HD video (insufficient bandwidth). If you're a gamer, and not a Media Center junkie, this is for you (unless an Ethernet cable is a viable option, in which case you don't need this adapter). If you use your XBOX 360 as a Media Center Extender, you'll probabably want to stick with an Ethernet cable (minimum 100 mbps) unless you have zero interest in HD.
 Third Time is a Charm June 11, 2008
I ordered one from Amazon and like others who have reviewed on here, it did not work and the Xbox 360 could not even detect it. Then I returned and tried a second one, that too did not work. I once again gave it one final try before buying a generic and it finally worked. It was a cinch and all I had to do was enter my WPA information.
I had a weird hunch about a bad batch so when I was purchasing my third unit I looked at the number on the bottom to get one that was different from the others that I have purchased in the past.
When calling Microsoft, they were as worthless as humanly possible and refused to deny any issues with it nor tell me if there was a defective batch. In addition, they wanted me to return my xbox since that is what they thought was going on. Microsoft is truly not producing a quality enough product, and for something that costs an additional $100 on top of the machine, this is unacceptable. At least the PS3 includes onboard wireless and they do not nickel and dime you as Microsoft does.
 Expensive but works well June 11, 2008
The wireless adapter is a little expensive, but if having it working within 15 minutes is important its worth it. I just plugged it in entered my password and a few other settings (using WPA secruity) and it just started working. The xbox is shoved in an entertainment center under a tv and cable box 3 rooms away from the wireless and it never has any problems connecting. It streams wireless music from my home pc fine. No complaints so far, I haven't tried it with video though.
Current problem with Quality Control on these June 10, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have heard nothing but good things on these (except for price) but buyer beware right now (~June 2008). I am sending back the second one that is defective, and I have read on numerous message boards that there is currently bad batches of these things being shipped out from microsoft.
Obviously not Amazon's fault (they are great about sending replacements - hopefully the third will work!), and it will hopefully be rectified soon.
Brand New June 9, 2008
This wireless adapter was brand new still in original packaging. Arrived in just a few days and works great.
