Currently in the process of getting a unit mod'd & HD upgraded. I will be going to wireless router setup @ home for internet (RR) within the month, that said, whats the best way to achieve xbox ~ pc transfers (cross-over & router connections will be unavailable, based on locations inside the house, can not route it.).. Advice?...
Here's the MS wireless adapter Other router Co. make them also. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t.../103-3634301-7747028?v=glance&s=toys&n=507846 get one that is a wirless-G not -B I really like my NetGear wirless router and I would stay away from D-link. Linksys are good also
Thanks for the link.. One thing.. I've seen 54 mbps & 108 mbps ones. Is there an advantage as far as file transfers ? ie... from xbox to pc.. using wireless... or from one pc to another.. thanks...
transfers will be very slow using wireless...i occasionally use a notebook with a wireless card to ftp to my xbox...and it takes forever compared to using the pc that is directly connected to the router. here is an examplexbox is connect to router cat5cable) I transfer lets say Bourne Suprmeacy (1gig .avi file) notebook with wireless card to xbox 500kb/s takes about 55-60min to transfer pc connected to directly to router to xbox 7,000kb/s takes about 5-7min if you go everything wireless i think you will be very upset about how long things will take to transfer...that is i guess if you plan on sending large files over the network...if i were you i would do my best to make sure you have your xbox connected to your router and a pc connected to that same router...otherwise you are in for a long wait.
Live is hard enough to set up with wires. Good luck with the wireless thing though - should be really cool if you get it working. I heard that most Netgear routers are highly compatable.
