  6. Lesson learned. next time, before you even head out to buy something always google what you are looking for and read reviews. Very first google hit.


    it is not possible to use generic USB wireless network adapters with the Xbox or Xbox 360 game console.

    The reason: generic Wi-Fi network adapters require the installation of device driver software that standard Xbox consoles cannot accommodate. Although it is physically possible to plug these adapters into the Xbox, they will not function properly without the accompanying drivers in place.

    USB wireless game adapters - To set up a standard Xbox console for wireless networking, consider using a Wi-Fi game adapter instead of a generic adapter. Game adapters are specifically designed to not require the installation of device drivers and will therefore work with Xbox. The Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter, for example, connects to the console's USB port and supports standard Wi-Fi home networking.
