Like I tell the customers of the company I work for....

Wireless Bridge... It can be your friend.. Extends the wireless network as well as asking as a wireless adapter... Most can be had for maybe 30-50ish...

I just spent $200 on a brand new wireless N router. Best one that Best Buy had other than the Airport Extreme which they were out of stock in =[

So far it works pretty well considering the amount of computers in my house. 2 desktops, an iMac, and 3 laptops. Then 2 ps3's, an xbox 360, and whatever other random things that use wireless like my ipod touch and stuff like that.

And Nemo, i'd love to hear if this ebay adapter really works

I'm seriously considering upgrading my wireless router here at home... it's the one given to us by our ISP and it doesn't quite do the job anymore lol. My friends networks blow mine clear out of the water speed wise, I refuse to go wireless with my Xbox because I KNOW it'll slow me down lmao. When I get back into gaming I'll have to hit up Future Shop.

Wireless N router for the laptops and Wired all the way for Xbox. I'll never go Wireless for Xbox.

I bought the old one antenna Xbox adapter when I got my Xbox and it was a waste of my money. Even at full capability it was laggy and forget about movies or streaming any type of video from your laptop.
