| Are there any 3rd party adapters (ones that are not made by Microsoft or
have the Xbox 360 labels on them) that will allow me to connect it to a 360
to pick up my wifi signal?
Thanks.

| not sure usb wise, but I have a USR ethernet bridge that works fine...
likely to be an issue with the usb drivers that would be needed not being
supported by the xbox,,, but if your using an ethernet bridge all the
settings will be stored in the bridge rather than the xbox which would just
use the std ethernet \ tcpip settings...

US Robotics, which was formerly 3Com if my memory serves. Primary
manufacturer of networking and modem equipment in the professional I/T
world for many years.

That guy should be 802.11g compliant, assuming that you don't have any
specialized compression or 'speed boosting' going on. The Microsoft-branded
wireless connector should talk to it.
-KKC, who misses DEC.

Same here, LinkSys Ethernet Bridge. of course you'd likely need to put the
bridge on your wired Ethernet so you could configure it via local
interface. After that, just plug in Cat5 and connect to XB360.
