Hi Please help someone with not much knowledge of consoles. I want to move my Xbox downstairs to connect to my plasma TV. Can I use any old wireless network adaptor to connect to my wireless router, or do I have to get the Micro$oft one? Thanks in advance for any help.

I saw a bit of netgear kit in PC World that used wifi via the ethernet port. was about 45 euro. It waas specifically aimed towards game consoles and did say 360 on the tin.

Yeah, using those things as far as the xbox is aware it is on a regular ethernet connection. Should work fine.
