  • "K3nnys" thanks for not sharing. The whole point of this forum is to sharing money saving ideas, because some greedy person decided to sell his money saving information on fleabay doesn't mean you should advertise his greedy idea here....unless your the greedy person? In which case shame on you.:mad:
  • Your way of getting it free. im sorry but i dont understand where im supposed to get a wireless adaptor serial number from!!! would it be the same as my xbox 360?

    There are 2 ways to get them free. I'm signed up for windows mobile training and they are included as a reward, you need to take training courses etc to get points build up to 3500 points and you can claim a wireless 360 adaptor. the other way is to phone microsoft and tell them "yours" has gone faulty, give them the serial number of "your" wireless adaptor and tell them the red light keeps flashing and they will send you a replacement. remember you bought it as a package with your 360 and it is still within 12 months old the store told you to contact microsoft. ;)[/quote]
  • how do you know the serial number of 'your' adaptor?

    Hmm...
  • The prices have dropped quite a bit now, not too much difference between instore prices and online, but the online is still cheaper. Am looking at getting the faster N one, definitely cheaper online

    Amazon is usually £45 or less

    For two devices to be able to talk to each other wirelessly, each needs both a transmitter and receiver. The wireless router has them built-in; the Xbox 360 doesn't. That's why it needs an adapter.
