Will you be hooking up your xbox to your home network or modem wirelessly or wired. At the moment I have a hybrid of the two for my current xbox. It's wired into a switch on my desk, which is then connected to my laptop. My laptop bridges its LAN and WLAN connections and then connects wirelessly to a Wireless Access Point, which is then wired to the central Modem/Router.

What's your setup (going to be)?

I have a router what my PSP and Laptop run from wireless but i think i will go for a wired connection as i allready have a cable running around my bedroom at the moment going to my Xbox so i will just use that as 360 will go where that Xbox now is :geek:

I have an access point in my room, but I don't plan on using my 360 for wireless internet yet. Maybe later in 2006.

I'm currently wired.

I don't have a choice with my PC and 360 been on different floors.

I don't really think I have a choice other than geting wireless. The thing that I plug into the back of my 360 to pick up the wireless signal (I assume coming from my Router) costs £84.99 though :o. Still, will be worth it :p

My xbox now is connected to my PC via a wire but I think wireless if the future so it will have to be that.

Wired.
It's right next to the router anyways and $100 doesn't justify getting rid of an extra wire for me.

I will be using my current setup when the 360 arrives so its wired for me. A mate of mine uses wireless and wouldn't go back to wired.
