Network Xbox Wirelessly

[moosie]

Hi all,

I want to take my xbox from the lounge to the bedroom. It currently connects via ethernet cable to my router (hard wired) but I want to stream my media to it via wireless now.

So what is the best solution for this? I don't want to have to move my router upstairs really so can you get ethernet to wireless adapters for the xbox?

Cheers all.

dont know about adaptors mate but most need some form of power and dont think the ether port would supply enough, could be wrong though but i saw this once

it does involve opening the xbox up and a few little modifications but thats if you fancy a crack at it

I currently do this and use a bridge that connects all my devices in my dining room to my wireless router in my front room

The one I bought was a "Netgear WGPS606 54MB Wireless Print Server with 4 port Switch"

The consoles plug into the ethernet ports on the print server and then the print server talks to the wireless router for internet access and local connection

Easy to configure and works well for me
