belkin are expensive as well tough.

Use a tut in here somewhere that tells you how to connect to wireless using your laptop connect to the xbox via intranet

That's easy... ethernet into 360 and into PC/laptop and open DNS. I used to do it but you've got to have both on at the same time to use Live and it lag's like an English vs American war on Halo 3.

iScam - probably.

If two ports are using one connection then it's going to lag compared to one port using one connection...

Just fork out on the Xbox one. I got mine for 50 quid second hand and it works fine, plus you can stream media via windows media center with the official microsoft one.

But surely if you are not browsing then one wont create any lag.

The xbox alone is very expensive, then there is the games, then theres the frickin wireless! O_0

Yeah it's expensive but it does what it says on the box.

It provides a great service and I'm 100% glad I bought it, I control everything about my Xbox remotely and it's fantastic.

It doesn't matter, two ports are connected and feeding through one internet connection so it's going to create lag - it's only logical.

A great advantage is you can stream movies from your PC. Say if you illegally downloaded it, you can watch it full screen!

only the official one work apart from the ethernet gaming adapter, but id just buy the official one so you know for definate that its fine.

Annoying thing is, went into game today, bought 3months live, headset asked them if they had any wireless adapers "No sorry, they got recalled because of a fault" -.- so now ive still gotta wait to go online lol. Good thing is the boy in there is tidy and accepted my psp in without a warranty sticker on it lol, did it when the manager wasnt looking :P
