Xbox internet connection

Since my Wireless router has decided to die awhile back now, can i use the USB Wireless net connection on the Xbox?

[Skitzo4Bass]

nah mate unfortunately not.. it's either the wireless connection that you can buy from stores that made specifcally for the xbox or an ethernet cable from a modem or router

[bd-850]

have the wireless, just my router sh!t itself. guess i better get a new one

[Skitzo4Bass]

Yeah you'd be best to do that mate, very unfortunate that it's busted itself..

So what's the problem with it though?

[bd-850]

there was a storm awhile back and had a brown out, and after that the router didnt work.

[Skitzo4Bass]

Bugger! oh well mate best thing you could do is buy yourself a new one, i'm assuming you know what you're looking for yeah..

[bd-850]

yeah a wireless router, lol. dont want to spend too much, its just got to go through a wall, the computer and xbox are less than a metre apart just a wal between them

[Skitzo4Bass]

you can pick them up fairly cheap but depends if you want to stick with brands and what not.. just the basic wireless routers work fine

Just for example but you could pick them up cheaper if you look around

Good luck with it mate, it'll be a pain being christmas shopping time though lol
