Is there a way to get an XBox wireless adapter model #MN-740 to get my
computer online using just a regular wireless router? I've been using a
borrowed Linksys wireless adapter, but my son has the MN-740. I have it
connected to my network card via a network cable (CAT5), but I'm getting
nothing. Do I have to download a driver?

Thanks,
PlainDave

Hi

Actually it is recommended to first configure the Game Card on a Computer.

So read this page, and extrapolate the instructions as applies to your
needs.

Thanks for the reply and the info.  I tried and failed.  I did every step,
but to no avail.  Thanks again.
