Xbox Live Internet-Connection? - Jake R - 06-15-2014 04:59 PM
Ok, so i've had an Xbox 360 for a while now and i just decided to get Xbox Live. I had a 3 month gold membership from GTA IV but never used it.
So, My question is:
Do i need cable internet connection or can i use wireless as i currently have wireless?
If i need cable is there like a adapter for wireless internet to plug into the 360 Console?

you will need a internet reciver to go wireless the xbox doest have one
. you can go wired with the wire that came with the xbox, the only problem is that the xbox has to be like a meter close to you internet box . i bought a very long wire from ebay for a tener

There is a wireless adapter you can purchase for your XBox 360 so that you can use your wireless internet connection, it is about $100.00. Otherwise you will have to use an ethernet cable to connect your XBOX 360 directly to your modem. If for some reason your modem and XBOX are in two seperate rooms like mine are and you don't want an ethernet cable strung out then you can plug an ethernet cable into your XBOX and your laptop with wireless internet, go under manage network connections on your laptop, highlight your LAN and wireless connection, right click the highlighted box, and click bridge connections. Hope this helps.

You will need to buy a wireless adapter for your actual console. With this, you will never need to use an ethernet cable.
