This adapter works exactly as it's supposed to. I haven't had any problems with it, and the setup was a breeze. I freed my living room from the cables that were crossing the floor, and I maintained the bandwidth speed.

Worked perfectly with my D-Link wireless router. I was up an running with a network connection in under 5 minutes. I use my 360 as a media center extender and so far that has flawlessly as well. Being able to play all the movies I have stored on my PC on my big screen via my xbox has spared me hours of DVD burning.

The first adapter was defective. Returned for a second adapter, also defective. Microsoft tech support suggested I try a 3rd adapter because they have known quality problems with this product. Bought a Linksys wireless gaming adapter instead for half the money and it worked right out of the box.
(Amazon customer service was quick on the returns (free s&h) and they refunded my money after the 2nd defective adapter.)

We weren't sure if we'd have a problem connecting to our home wireless network because sometimes the signal is weak in our basement as the wireless router is on the main floor of our home. However, it worked great, we've had no connectivity problems whatsoever. It took a little while to find the MAC address of the adapter which we needed because for security we've limited wireless connections to only certain MAC addresses, but once we located that and set up our router to accept it, no issues. My son has had a blast using the XBox Live feature and talking to his friends while playing.

I bought this unit before I found out that it's not compatible with Apple's Time Capsule (which I have). It won't work with that device unless you ramp it down to 80211b speed ONLY. Some folks have had luck getting to work with the regular Airport routers, so YMMV if you have one of those. I did have it up and running until I tried a different game router; when I plugged this unit back in it would no longer recognize my wireless network at all! Add to that the annoyance of trying to configure it and a clunky Xbox interface (it WON'T network passwords for example) and you have a bit of a disaster. I can't vouch for it's performance on a PC network, but if you have an Apple network take my advice: hard wire your 360 directly to a router, or an Airport Express. Same cost, WAY less hassle.
