I am also having this same problem. I have dsl 6mb service with at&t.; sad thing is I was also a dsl tech for at&t; 6 months ago. anyways I also have comcast cable 16 mb service and have the same issue on both. I am trying to run netflix on my xbox 360 and be on the internet at the same time. I have looked everywhere for a solution and havent found one yet. i guess im going to ask mwave.com since they have technical support and if this doesnt work i will be going to pay a small due to expert-exchange.com and have some experts decide.

That's not true, I recently bought this item and it does allow me to surf the internet and be on XBOX LIVE at the same time as a matter of fact I am typing this as I talk to my friends on XBOX LIVE.

Yes it is true that hooking up your Xbox to your router with a cord is better and faster the wireless. I have my router right next to my Xbox one and xbox 360. I have tried it wireless and the connection drops alot more. And the beautiful thing is if you have a problem, most of the time just unplugging the ethernet cable and plugging it back in fixes it. Also reseting your router orunplugging it and plugging it back in helps as well. The choice is always corded even for controllers that on mila second makes all the difference.

Odds are this will not work. Xbox put something in their hardware that would ONLY allow official Xbox 360 adapters to work.

My use is on an HPSlimline desktop computer, located in the basement. This device gave superb wireless capability to the desktop [router is on main floor]. I'm not familiar with the xbox 360.

I set this up for my grandson so he can play his XBOX 360 in the living room. Our router and DSL modem is upstairs, and one of the units is plugged into the wall downstairs. The second XE102 unit is plugged into outlet in living room, and from there an RJ45 network cable runs to the XBOX 360. He has an account to connect to XBOX 360 live, and it works fine for him. No latency issues either. This has been working fine for him for the past 9 months since he got the XBOX.

It comes with 4 CAT 5 ports for internet cables to "hard wire" to the internet - computer, Xbox, WII etc. so if your TV has a CAT 5 port for an internet cable - it will. Never tried to hook our TV up that way.

No. It did not work for me. I used this to connect xbox to a monitor and out was so bad (forget HD) that it was impossible to play games.

As long as your console supports wireless (b,g,n) it should work, however I would not recommend it. This works well for surfing the web or steaming music & video, but you might see some lag if your trying to use it for gaming. Try to hard wire your console if possible.

Yes and yes. I used mine to tie my TV downstairs with my main desktop which is upstairs. I am also able to connect my X-Box 360. I have not had any interference issues - it should be noted this operates on a proprietary 5GHz frequency and doesn't interfere with your WiFi signal. I have also not had any reboot issues, though you are range limited - I have used mine at a range of around 20 feet.

Found the issue: my router. For some reason, my router was not allowing connected devices to see each other: ie, I can not ping my other PC's or the printers. Oddly, my XBOX 360 worked fine, as did my PS3. Both access files from my networked PC's. Anyway, under the guidance of the Brother support (which is pretty good), I resetted my router and all is good now. Sweet.

Well since you're a Netgear employee, why does my adaptor work flawlessly with my computer and won't even let my ps3 or xbox connect to the internet? A little off-subject but your time is appreciated.

hey dan! i went wireless on my xbox 360, i found that the ethernet runs much faster, and that the you tube don't freeze no more. just rememeber that this cord is not heavy duty, but for the price, you can't go wrong. yes i will buy another one in the near future.

I'm pretty sure xbox 360 has usb 2.0 ports and the discription says you can use it with an xbox360, so it should work. this is a compact keyboard so it's like a arc laptop keyboard...it'll be fine for the casual gamer

RhymeBoy.G, Thanks for your post. I want to connect our satellite receiver, blu ray disk device, and plasma tv to the internet by cat5 cable. We have the following: dsl modem&gt;D-link wifi router&gt;desktop pc&gt;wifi laptops. I was not certain if I could connect the entertainment devices through a switch connected to the wifi router. Now I know this will work! Thanks.

I too have a xbox one (love it!) anyway I just tried really quick to connect my xb1 to this device and nothing seems to work. KVM switch did not work. Again I need to stress the fact that I just simply plug in the device without doing any configuration and just didn't seem to recognize the xb1. However this device is great for switching between two desktop or three and using one monitor and one keyboard and mouse to control the entire system. Good luck and if you do find a compatible device please let me know. Thanks.

That is why i purchased it, not sure if it was defective, it just worked on one computer and not the other, so i have to move ethernet line to other computer when needed. For the price it may be worth a try.

Good question. Can't give you a solid answer. It all depends on the operating system in the xbox and whether it can self-configure to a plug and play device to operate the adapter. That would be something you'd need to ask a technical expert at Microsoft.
