The original model of the Xbox 360 console can only connect onto the internet via a wired Ethernet connection. When Microsoft manufactured it, they didnt include an integrated Wi-Fi feature like the PS3 consoles had at launch. Since many gamers out there wanted to connect their consoles wireless onto the internet, Microsoft later on released an optional Wireless network adapter kit. This is basically an external Wi-Fi antenna that you attach directly onto your console to provide it with wireless connectivity. Once installed, you can connect onto your wireless access point at home and your console will be connected onto the internet, ready for Xbox Live. If you have a slim model of the Xbox 360 the external wireless network adapter kit is not required, since it has it built in.
1) Look at the rear of your Xbox 360 console and look where the TV cable goes into. Look above it, in that area you will see two small slots. These slots are used to hold the wireless network adapter in place. So line up the tabs on the wireless network adapter with the two slots and push it in. This will lock it in place and prevent it from moving.
2) Now that the wireless network adapter is fitted onto the console, you need to connect it via USB. Look at the rear of your Xbox 360, you will find one USB port that is available. Plug in the USB plug from the wireless network adapter into the USB port found on the console.
3) Power on your Xbox 360 console. Then from the Xbox 360 dashboard go into Network Settings. Then select Configure Network >Wireless Mode > Scan For Networks.
4) Find the wireless access point name from the list of available WI-Fi hotspots that come up onscreen on your TV. Then enter your security password for your wireless router and select Done. It will now attempt to connect onto the Wi-Fi router. If successful the led on the wireless network adapter will turn solid green.
