5 Stars Great Network Item for the 360!
I was kind of sketchy about getting this item at first, got a deal on the shipping so i went for it…was better than spending 100bucks for the 360 wireless adapter. I plugged it in and went to the network settings whitch i read was hard to get to but it wasnt….if you cant find it go to the last tab on the right and its Network how hard is that? well i go there and it has already picked up my network. The only down side to this is it is ONLY WEP less security but w/e i can live with that. I have no lag my downloads are fast. I have nothing to complain about and would reccomend this product for ANYONE WHO CAN LIVE USEING WEP!!!

5 Stars Perfect!
Works perfect for Xbox 360. Dont bother spending the extra 50 bucks on the other one when this one works perfectly. You can also stream media from your PC via this and the 360. Pretty cool….

5 Stars Wireless Adapter for Xbox or Xbox 360
This is a more affordable option compared to the new USB Xbox 360 wireless adapter; if you dont mind using the ethernet adapter on the Xbox 360 and the fact that it will sit on top of the unit and a diffrent color(Black) and a external power supply.

Installation was a brezze and straight forward just connect to your wireless access point and you are done.

If you are looking to save a few bucks and are looking to ave the same funtionality this is your best bet because it’s made by Microsoft and it is fully compatible with both units.

I hope that this review helps you on making a decision on your purchase.

5 Stars Works great with Xbox 360
This adapter is cheaper than the USB wireless adapter and is easy to use. It simply uses a cat5 cable to plug into the Xbox 360 and then plugs into the wall. When you turn on your 360 go to the network settings and enter your network information, but don’t use the CD included with this product. I read that other have had problems when they tried to run the CD so I didn’t use it. The Xbox 360 is pre-setup to interact with this type of network adapter and will recognize it when you start-up with the adapter attached. I’ve played Xbox live and downloaded lots of videos and had no problems. The speed is only limited by your connection speed. This adapter works with 802.11 B/G and can transfer 54Mbps (most high-speed internet connections run at around 5 to 16Mbps).

5 Stars Works fine
I have an xbox 360 and it works fine. Just did what everybody else on here said and didn’t use the installation disk.

5 Stars Works Great With Xbox 360
This thing works great with the Xbox 360. I just plugged it in, entered my 26 digit encryption code, and it worked flawlessly. The funny thing is that I couldn’t get it to work with my original Xbox.

This thing is much cheaper than the 360 version of the wireless adapter, and it works just as well. So save yourself a few bucks and get this version.

5 Stars Best price out there & works on the ORIGINAL Xbox too!
First off I would like to say that this wireless adapter is compatible with the ORIGINAL Xbox. I was skeptical until I found the model number on Microsoft’s website and it matched the one listed here. I also looked at several vendors both online and local to compare prices, noting that they all charged around $100 I was very happy to find Amazon selling at a reasonable price. My son was anxious to get set up online so we ordered on Thursday using our Prime account and it arrive on Saturday. I think the most difficult part was removing it from the packaging, otherwise he was set up within minutes. Overall a good deal and easy purchase. I would recommend this item to others looking to go Live.

5 Stars Excellent 360 adapter!!!
Just like some of the other reviewers are saying this works perfectly fine with a 360. I tried using a 3rd party adapter and that was a huge mistake. Kept dropping me off my network. It has been about 30 days since I hooked this adapter up and have not had one problem. Do not use the included disc and just config the adapter for your network, you will be online playing your favorite game in no time.

5 Stars Works like a charm!
This adapter works perfect with the 360 at half the price of the 360 adapter.

3 Stars Xbox Wireless Network Adapter MN740
Works with the Xbox360, just don’t install the drivers on the disc that comes with the adapter. The connection speed of this adapter is very slow and that is with a 3.0 mbs dsl line, so if u want a fast connection choose a different adapter.
