 Yes it does work Dec 25, 2007
By psquare
After reading these reviews I had already printed my return label when I decided to call Microsoft just to double-check. Yes it does work on the 360. I did the following, and at least it worked for me:
1. Do not use the disk that comes in the box.
2. Just plug it in, go to "settings" and put in your encryption key if you have one, if not just leave it alone.
3. Try more than once. For some weird reason it only worked at the second try.
I have this adapter in the basement and the router in the first floor. It works great, comes with the cable, and I saved $50...

After you set the encryption, it doesn't care what it's plugged into. Apr 14, 2008
By NukeMecca
I have had this bridge for like 3 or 4 years. I bought it for my original Xbox. Once you interface with the bridge through your Xbox (or Xbox 360) and enter the correct settings (wep encryption key and so forth)to connect with your wireless router, this thing doesn't care what it's plugged into. I've actually used this bridge to connect my Toshiba HD DVD player to the internet for firmware upgrades. Currently, my son has it connected to his PlayStation 2 to play PS2 games online! Once you have it set to connect to your router, it doesn't care what it's connected to.
Pro's: It's fast/Can be used as a universal bridge for any device
Con's: This bridge can only be interfaced through the Xbox or Xbox 360. You cannot simply plug this into a PC and interface with it to make settings for it. It's completely Xbox dependant to change any settings within it./Only supports WEP encryption. And like someone else mentioned, there IS no firmware update for it to make it support WPA (which is a racket by MicroSoft to try to get you to buy their new $100 bridge).
If you want a bridge that supports WPA, buy the Dlink DGL 3420 ($89). You can interface with it through your PC (a major plus) to make settings for it and use it for any device, including the Xbox 360.. just like the MN 740.

 A Decent Cheap Alternative Oct 24, 2008
By Arielle Shander
This wireless adapter was made for the original Xbox to connect to Xbox LIVE, though it is compatible with the Xbox 360. The main problem with it that I was not initially aware of is the fact that it only supports WEP encryption. If your wireless router uses WPA, it will not work.
Also, unlike the Xbox 360 wireless adapter, you need an AC adapter to supply power to it, as well as a CAT-5 cable which plugs into the 360's Ethernet port. The Xbox 360 wireless adapter, on the other hand, just pops right into any of your 360's USB ports, and then you're good to go after typing in your router's SSID and password.
The Xbox wireless adapter is a bit bulkier and less aesthetically pleasing, though most people don't care about the appearance of a product like this. The 360 wireless adapter is considerably smaller and more streamlined, though, making it far more visually attractive and better for fitting into smaller spaces (especially when taking into account that it doesn't need a bulky external power supply).
If your router supports WEP encryption, you don't mind needing an AC adapter to power it and you're not willing to spend more than about $40-$50 for a wireless bridge, then this product may be for you. However, the Xbox 360 wireless adapter is superior in every way besides the cost. I actually managed to snag a used 360 adapter for about $70 which was a great deal in the end after previously struggling with the original Xbox adapter. The decision of which to get is your choice, but make sure your setup will allow you to use the original before purchasing it. On the other hand, if money isn't an issue, then a used Xbox 360 adapter is the better option.
Bottom line: Only get if you don't mind or aren't fazed by the issues with the original that I mentioned. 3 stars.

 It works!!! It really works!!! Jan 19, 2008
By J. D. Martin
Just like the majority of the reviews on here, this guy works with the Xbox 360 with no problems. The device found my wireless network with no problems. And after entering my WEP security, I was able to connect to Xbox Live.
Save yourself some money (and a USB port) and buy this one over this:Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter

Saved $50! Jan 06, 2008
By dca10468
"dca10468"
After reading the other reviews, I thought that I must have bought the wrong wireless adapter and would need to return this one for the $95 one for XBox 360. But, I did just what psquare said, I did not use the installation CD. It recognized my network instantly, just typed in my WEP code and it was as simple as that!
