Installing a WiFi adapter into the Xbox
Published April 11th, 2006 in Gaming, Microsoft, Noteworthy, Technology, Wireless
This is a really cool tutorial which explains to you how to install a wifi adapter into your Xbox (1) so that you don’t have to have that extra baggage. All this does is use the power from the Xbox (via a 8-inch power cable splitter) to supply the power to the WiFi adapter, and use an external small CAT5 cable to hook the units up. They use a Netgear WGE-111, because it is small and will fit inside the Xbox. So this will work for other adapters, but it may not fit inside the Xbox as neatly as this does (or at all); Note: The power supplied by the Xbox is 5V so make sure you don’t overpower the circuit inside your adapter. The tutorial is very detailed, showing you what parts to cut off inside the Xbox, and what to connect where. The end result looks quite neat, at least I think so!
