You can go on youtube and find out how to make one. Also I think there is a cheap sony usb adapter wireless one that works and is half the price, I also broke down and paid $100 for a xbox one.

It looks like the cheapest on eBay is 70 used. I’d do 60 cash or 35 cash and some half and halfs. Just text me at 7164648110 if you wanna make a deal. ( by the way this is tom from valet)

if you have a laptop with wireless you can bridge the ethernet connection and just use that. that’s what I use cuz I’m a cheap bastard and refuse to buy a $100 adapter

yea, pretty much you just go to manage network connections. highlight the LAN and Wireless connection icons and right click to select the option to bridge the connection. I haven’t had any problems and I’ve been doing this for a couple months now

10.5.x
Turn ‘Internet Sharing’ On in ‘Sharing’ of system prefs. Select Airport to Ethernet, hit start.
10.4.x
Sharing prefs plane, Internet tab, ‘share you internet connection’ Airport to Ethernet, start.
Or get a cheap router and run DD-WRT on it in client mode, instant 4 wired ports for $20-40. But this requires some slight knowledge.

the laptop method works ok, but it is a huge pain in the ass to set up. and you have to have your computer on every time you want to play xbox. here is what i did in the beginning…
i got a wireless range extended, i think it was Linksys or something. it was like $38 on [buy.com](http://buy.com). what it does it creates a hard wired connection wherever you can get a wireless signal. works perfectly. what is great about this, is that you can use it for anything (like slingbox, computer, blu ray player etc). but now i use that for my slingbox and i bought the xbox one for my xbox.
maybe i can dig up a link later

Many options for this.
Option 1 - The xbox wireless module
Option 2 - Using a shared connection on a laptop
Option 3 - Buy a cheap, reliable , flashable router and use that. Flash with DDWRT or one of the few other modified firmwares.
Option 4 - Buy powerline adapters. Converts ethernet to be used on the existing powerlines in the house. (less likely for you as they are still expensive)
