This device just works. It joined the wireless network in minutes, the interface was intuitive, and it was all web based so I didn't need any crazy software. I use it to stream video and the quality is great.

What's great about it: Cheaper than the official xbox wireless adaptor
What's not so great: It doesn't seem to like windows 7
I first tried setting it up using my windows 7 system.
After about an hour of failure and reading a few reviews, I moved over to my old PC with XP. This time it set up and was connected after 5 minutes. I then plugged in my XBOX and was streaming with a full signal off of Netflix from the opposite side of the house.
Works great if you have an older system to set it up. I don't know how well the WPS setup works, as my modem does not support it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: easy set up, small size, barely bigger than an iphone
What's not so great: have not found a con yet
I was a bit skeptical when i bought this, i read the other reviews and was not sure if it would be worth it. it is so simple to set up, i really dont know how anyone could find it hard. you put the disk that comes with it in your pc, you plug the adapter into your ethernet port, it finds the available wireless networks, and you enter the password if it is a secure network. it tests the connection and as long as you entered the correct password you are done it is set up and unless you change your network setting it is set up forever, connect it to anything with a ethernet port., you can unhook it from one device and hook it to another no changes required. i own an xbox 360 and have the microsoft adapter for it and the setup on the xbox adapter is actually a bit more difficult in my opinion. the only thing about this device is you must use a pc to configure it before use. i use it on a blu ray player and also on a desktop pc,

What's great about it: works with no issues
What's not so great: The setup instructions are adequate but could be improved for novice users..
I bought this specifically to work with the new wireless XBox. As expected, the MS Xbox wireless setup was useless in my situation (hotel wireless network with a logon) and the Trendnet came into play. Also worked well with my home base Verizon FIOS router and barely protected network (64 bit).
The instructions are not clear enough for a novice user. Making a bad choice could result in a very confusing result.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this wireless adapter for the Xbox because it said it would be compatible with our game system & router & because it was sold by Best Buy. Well, it was a two day span of countless hours trying every troubleshooting technique printed. Read the reviews. We should have!
I recommend the Microsoft version of wireless adapters. We should have not used the Best buy site & bought it in the first place.We had our Xbox connected to "live" within 5 minutes.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's not so great: Nothing
Bought for my Xbox 360 and love it. Took all of 5 minutes to set up and have since used it for quite a few devices around my house has worked on Blu-Ray player, Wii, PS3, XBox 360, and my onlive gaming console. Recommend to anyone who has one or more of these devices.
