I've heard of a way being able to do this without purchasing the 100$ wireless piece. Apparently it involves a laptop and an ethernet cable from your computer to the xbox? I've searched google and found a way but apparently it only works for some people, and you can't reconnect to the internet with an ethernet cable afterwards.

If anyone knows of a simple way with Windows XP, help a brother out.

How well does this work? I'm kind of weary not being able to use my ethernet port for internet anymore after I go through the process.

You can use the XBox1 wireless adapter. It's not as sleek and sexy, but it will only set you back $40-50.

It works fine. I didn't do the command prompt part so I'm not worried.

Found this link hanging around so I decided to post it for all those who might be interested later on. It seems very sensible. I might go through the XBOX joint if it works. Makes nothing but sense to save money. How does the XBOX wifi adapter hook up by the way?

I just ordered the original xbox adapter for $39.99 at Amazon, yesterday. The official 360 adapter is waaaayyyy overpriced.
