    Help with 360 and wireless network

    Okay I need step by step instructions on how to get online with my linksys gaming adapter and xbox 360. I messed around with it, but apparently have no idea what I am doing. I thought I would just go on the xbox dashboard and change my wireless settings but that part is greyed out and won't let me change it.

    Someone Please Help!

    the 360 isnt wireless! you would have to buy the 100 dollar adapter.

      Actually you can just buy a wireless adapter with an ethernet plug in it. I got mine for about 50 bucks. You then just run your ethernet chord to your 360. If you are wanting to secure your network you will need to do a little tweaking to your security settings.

          I have the adapter, but I cannot get it to work. It says something about an IP address and I cannot mess with the wireless settings because they are greyed out on the menu of the 360.

            You shouldn't have to touch any settings in the xbox menu. All the setup should be done on the gaming adapter itself. If you search google for the manual to you gaming adapter you should be able to figure it out.

              Okay I have it all set up correctly and such by way of Lynksys technical support , but was told that my signal strength wasn't strong enough. It is only about 15-20 ft and one wall. Shouldn't I be able get a better signal strength?

                unplug your Modem and plug it back in, that may work.
