I've HAd my Xbox for about 3years and i have a lot of good games like re5, cod4, cod5 Left for Dead, gears of war 1 & 2. Ive Been desperate to connect to xbox live for so long but i never knew how. I Have an xbox 360(of course) and a Netgear WNR834B router in my basement.(Look for a picture of it on google images to see what it looks like) My xbox is in my room which is 2levels from my basement. I Dont know if i have enough materials to connect to live. I have tried a Couple of things like moving my Tv and my xbox next to the router and using an ethernet cable and running it from my xbox to the router and that failed:( Then i tried using my friends wireless adapter close to the router in my basement and that also failed. I even tried using my moms laptop b/c i saw people do it on youtube and it failed also. Idk what the problem is!!!! i Guess i wasn't made to have xbox live. PLEASE HELP ME SOMEBODY!!!!!!!!!!!

Wired networks are more secure and easier to set up than wireless networks. However, if you already have a wireless network and your Xbox 360 is going to be in a different room from your network equipment and computer, it's probably easier to connect your Xbox 360 to the wireless network.
1.Turn off your Xbox 360 and disconnect anything connected to the I/O port on the back of your Xbox 360.
2.Connect the wireless Xbox 360 adapter to the I/O port on the back of your Xbox 360 by pressing the tabs on the adapter into the two slots on the back of the console.
3.Connect the wireless adapter cable to your Xbox 360 I/O port.
4.Flip up the network adapter's antenna.
5.Turn on your Xbox 360. If you are using an unencrypted wireless network, your Xbox connects to it automatically, and you can skip the rest of the steps. If you are using an encrypted wireless network (which you should be!), click the System tab, and then click Network Settings.
6.On the Network Settings page, select Edit Settings.
7.On the Edit Settings page, select your wireless settings on the Basic Settings tab
8.On the Select Wireless Network page, select your wireless network.
9.On the WEP Network page, type your wireless network key, and then click Done.
10.On the Apply Settings page, click Test Xbox Live.
11.If this is the first time you have connected your Xbox 360 to Xbox Live, you'll probably be prompted to apply an update. Congratulations—this means you have successfully connected to Xbox Live! Click Yes, update now. Your Xbox will restart and will then be ready for use. If there are no updates, the Xbox Live Connection page shows that you're connected to Xbox Live. Press the Y button on your controller to continue.

it should be a problem with the actual xbox, there is no reason these shouldn't work. Go to the settings for the internet and see if it even detetects a wireless or wire system
