Xbox Live connection failure.

I got my 360 Pro last night, and I tried to connect to XBL. However, I got an error message saying "Cannot detect network hardware" and "If wireless, make sure your Network Adapter is connected to your console."

What is a Network Adapter, and how much is it?

I set connection to automatic.

Re: Xbox Live connection failure.

Are you trying to connect it with a wireless connection or an ethernet cable? If you are trying to use Wireless you need a wireless adapter for the 360 to pick up your routers wireless.

Yeah, I'm trying to do wireless.

So how much is it at GameStop? Or is it not at GameStop?

Why don't ya google this stuff?

Automatic doesn't work for me, I have to manually put in the iP Address, etc. Try that.

Well if you don't have a network adaptor how do you expect your xbox to pick up a signal? :p

Re: Xbox Live connection failure.

Your gonna need to get a wireless adapter like I did. Its about $100, but its easy to use. Just put in the security codes for your router, and you should be set.

Oh well. There's always Christmas, or my birthday.

Cable is more reliable and less likely to lag so the better option in my opinion. My cable was 'acquired' from work... :shifty:

If the damn thing costs a 100 bucks it better be good.
