Default Xbox 360

It's time to connect my Xbox 360 to the internet.

What do I need to do this?

Don't thats, 100 bucks and not worth it, you'll run the risk of slower speeds, stick to the cable if you can get it. And check some of your games i know Gears of War and some others come with some free subscrptions to xbox live.

it is worth it...running a cord through a level of your house is very stupid...

but like my old xbox setup i hardly ever got connection because my router was on my middle floor all the way to the right and my wireless live thing was in the basement all the way to the left and hardly ever kept a signal...but now that i moved it to right below our router for the 360 it should work fine...and it still wont be that much slower...my friend just bought one and he is all the way across his house from his router and his is just as fast as if he hooked it up with a cable

Well we don't know where his router is....so it's kinda dependent on his situation, a land line is always guna be faster then wireless...
