Need official xbox one mate, no way to load drivers to the xbox for A.n.other wireless adaptor. At least that was the case when I last looked?

[J222JRA]

Thought as much.........Cheers Scott.

I've got one mate

Bit of a fuckabout but does the job

This may be wrong but,.......my laptop connects using my wifi network......someone tells me i could connect the ethernet lead from the laptop to xbox and this would give me access to live??

Correct or complete bollocks??

Yeh, connect to wireless on laptop, use ethernet cable to connect xbox to laptop.

Right click on the internet symbol thing in the task bar, click open network and sharing center, then on the new window click change adapter settings.

Highlight the wireless adapter and ethernet adapter, right click, click bridge.

Sorted!

Be warned it can be a little tempremental, but i put up with it rather than spend 40 pounds on a wireless adapter!

That should work yeh. Thats the new one i was on about. I have the original one.

£40, gone down since i last looked.

Maybe if you look on ebay you might be able to find a used original one cheaper?

[Chr15]

yes but check ebay for a cheaper one

Your not being tight imo, they are charging a rediculous amount for a relatively cheap peace of hardware!

[adamm]

can get the old one used for 20 quid in game mate

[MarkyG]

Scour eBay matey.

I did, i got a wireless N adaptor for the XBox (official one) for £22 incl P+P. Did lose a lot of auctions though for other ones but they went for over £40, i guess i was lucky, now I have Kinect, i cant use the wireless without unplugging Kinect..............pain the zee ass!

Had a look and i couldnt find anything?

All i could find was wireless bridging, or using a wireless router as a access point.
