Is there an alternative to the $100 xbox wireless deal. My girlfriend wants to use my other Xbox down stairs and I would have to run 200 feet of ethernet cable.

Buy a wirless router, for your computer and then buy a wirless adapter for your xbox.

Theyre like 60 quid from GAME.

And the wireless router just ring your internet company and say im thinking of moving to sky because they will give me a free wireless router do you think its possible to givve me one so i can stay with you.

At that distance you will get interferance and lag with wireless (people will say u won't but unless you a signal booster you definately will) You are better off with ethernet cable, that much ethernet cable will end up costing nearly the same as the wireless adaptor, but will be more reliable.

but a wireless acces pinjt (not a router, or use a router with the DHCP setting disables, so have a ethernet cable from the abot the the access pount, then the accesspoint connects to the main router in your house.
