Hi
I need a xbox 360 wireless adaptor, but can only find the cheapest online at £59.99.
Can any of my fellow moneysavers find it any cheaper.
thanks in advance for your help

Hi,
I am looking for one aswell.... so far the cheapest I have found is on play: at £54.99 + 2% cashback through quidco
On ebay they seem to be around £40-50 inc delivery
I doubt its much help but hopefully someone will know somewhere cheaper

I dont think it has to be an official xbox wireless adapter.
Any third party wireless adapter (providing it has a usb connection) should work

Ask me anything!

No any adapter will not work. It either has to be an official adapter or a 'gaming' adapter which is a similar price anyway.0 -
Wow really??
Didnt know that
Sorry for the misinformationMSE's Xbox 360 guru.

Only joking mate, I did think that at first, there are ways to set a 3rd party one up to work, but as has been said itsabout the same price and streaming music/video may not work as well as it does on the MS wireless adaptorThanks

I managed to get one cheaper via a catalogue and discount code- (Marshall Ward I think) so that may be an option. It did say it would take up to seven weeks for delivery but actually arrived much quicker than that.Divorce all finished- now to start saving for a better future!0

I've bought a linksys wireless adaptor from ebay, the seller was from hong kong, but only cost £19. Not as pretty as the official one but it works fine.
It also works with the pc, or laptop.0 -
The other way around this is to use a "ethernet to wireless lan adaptor"
You plug the xbox 360 into this unit using the ethernet cable which allows you to connect to your wireless network.
here is an example of one:

You can pick these type of units up for a bit cheaper off ebay than the Xbox360 wireless adaptor
