I posted this on the 360 board a few days ago and got no replies, so I'm gonna post this here for anyone who sees it:

This may be a newb question but I am not sure on this. My aunt got my cousin a 360 for christmas, and she was asking about getting online wirelessly. I told her Microsoft has the wireless adapter for $100. Is there any other option to get wireless online than the $100 microsoft adapter option? I was thinking a USB Wireless adapter but I am not sure on it. If anyone has any other options, please let me know the name of it and where I might be able to get it. Thanks.

Theres no other way by going wireless. Its either drop 100$ for the adapter or spend 15-20 bucks on a cat5
	the funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

You can, however, use wireless ethernet adapters like the Linksys WGA54G, but they are apparently a huge pain in the ass to set up.

My issue is that it should have been built into the machine in the first place.

That's what i suggest you tell her to do. Wireless is the way to go.
