cheapest xbox wireless adapter?

fuzzgun19

I have a Netgear router attached to my main PC (downstairs).

The xbox is upstairs. Is all I need - a wireless adapter to plug into the xbox?

...or would I need something else, sorry never done this before.

Which model?

WGR614 v7. Does the model make a difference?

Yes - some of them aren't wireless. Without knowing what you had it was impossible to answer your question. Since your router is indeed wireless, you have the option of adding an adapter to the Xbox; nothing else should be required.

Thanks for that TF.

Has anyone come across a cheap adapter recently?

I've seen this one, but is this about the cheapest..? (I'm not bothered about make as long as it's reliable)

You could always trade the games in if they no interest for you.

this is just a controller and a few games - its not a wireless adapter to network your 360.
