Internet connection for my 360?

[Saph]

Hi guys!

I was wondering if you have any good advice for me to get Xbox live started? I kinda have the same scenario as StantheMan with his PS3. I have a computer nearby which is on a wired connection, and my modem is right next to the PC screen.

Now in the other end of my living room, is the TV and my Xbox(My livingroom is L shaped, my pc in the top of the L, and my TV in the bottom and around the corner)

I was wondering if any of you have any easy ways and just good tips as to how I get my Xbox hooked up? I thought maybe the Xbox 360 had a built in wireless router, but I get no turn on options anywhere, and when I try to do establish connection, it says failed immediately.

So, any help would be great. Thanks!

I think the wireless adapter for the 360 is an addon, not sure though. Why not use a big ethernet cable?

A long ethernet cable or the wireless adapter. Only the new 360s have a built-in wireless.

yeah just use a ethernet cable its what i use or a wireless adapter

That wasn't me that had the connection problem, just a post I commented on, no big. Id say get the adapter, a long ethernet cable would probably be in the way, depending on the footage of your living room.

Well, I have to get it going first guys XD But go ahead and PM me your live profiles.

Either way, I am betting on the wireless adapter, BUT I think my Xbox might be too old. Like HOW new is the wireless feature? Cause I don't know if its like supposed to be switched on or if its on by default or what.

Or is a wireless adapter something I should buy? Will any do, or is it one I should get that only works with Xboxes? Let me know.
