XBOX 360 wireless bridge

Can anyone make any recommendations and also any troubles in setting up? cheers

I've got a Netgear WGE111 which is a 54Mbs wireless bridge. It works great with my Xbox 360. Here's a link to it:

I've got my ADSL router (Draytek Vigor 2800G) set up with WPA security and MAC address filtering and this bridge works fine with it.

Thanks taz, but what is the difference between me getting another router for the job and a bridge?

I don't understand your question, skewed.

I'm assuming your current ADSL router supports wireless as well. Is this the case? If not, then you will not be able to use a wireless bridge.

Or do you mean you want to buy another wireless router and use the bridge connected to your Xbox 360 to talk to the new wireless router. This wireless router would then be connected into your ADSL modem/router? Is this what you're proposing?

I use a Linksys WRT54GS flashed with DD-WRT firmware as my bridge. Took me a while to find setup instructions that actually worked though.

sorry, I meant having 2 wireless routers connected

You could just configure one of them to act as a bridge to the main one that's connected to you ADSL line, no? That would save you having to buy a wireless bridge as well.

Exactly how I have it configured using WDS.
