Ok so I've been looking around at the various wireless networking options for the XBox 360.
1) Official Wireless G Network Adaptor
2) Official Wireless N Network Adaptor
3) Ethernet-to-Wireless Adaptor.
Now I've got some CEX credits which I could use against either 1) or 2), but then again option 3) should be cheapest, thus letting me save my CEX credits for something else in future.
So which would you choose, and if 3) then which is the better option? there's so many out there I can't see the cheap deals from the "too good to be true" items that probably won't work.

First thing first. What existing broadband router do you have? If it is wireless is it G or N? Majority of existing routers giving free are G but the newer ones are now N. If G is fine - just get the G wireless adapter for ease.
If you can't be bothered paying anything - use an existing wireless enabled notebook if you have one. Look in google how to do this.
Alternatively by a very long ethernet cable.
Or buy the Official N adapter from tesco. I believe a bargain is available for around £37.
Worse for worse, buy a wireless bridge from amazon. Or gaming bridge.Motto: 'If you don't ask, you don't get!!'
Remember to say thank you to people who help you out!

1 will work with either an N or G router, 2 i believe is backward compatable with Grouters so again should work fine. Personally i'd go for the N network adapterEveryones opinion is the most important.....no wonder nothing is ever agreed on.0
