The TEW-647GA is a solid solution for connecting a single Ethernet device to your wireless network, and it’s much less expensive and much more versatile than Microsoft’s Xbox-specific offering.

For me it didn't work as well as I thought it would and I wasn't very impressed. It could've been my router but I just switched back to using Ethernet cables. It is cheaper than the Microsoft ones tho which is a plus.

Having this hooked up to my xbox360 for quite some time now. At first I had some issue with it dropping signals after sometime of online playing, however once I change my router it works like a charm. You need to initialize it with a computer (without wireless adapter) first, then you can use it with your console. The user guide did not mention about having problems setting up the device on a computer that already has a wireless adapter to it, therefore, remember to disable the original adapter before setting this device up. I got this at a sale when the price is $39.99, I do not want to get ripped of by the other $99.99 Xbox360 only adapter. Once more complain would be the power adapter and lan cable being messy, other than that, I would have gave it 5 stars. It works perfect, xbox live works perfect, red dead with my friends no problemo.

The included software didn't work at all for me. I called Tech support, and they had me change my computer's IP to a static IP 192.168.1.50, then browse to the adapter at 192.168.10.110. Then I was able to configure it and connect it to my wireless network. No guarantee but I bet this would even work on a Mac.
This isn't just a wireless adapter for gaming systems. It works fine on computers & laptops too, and I'm using it on a photocopier.

Awesome because it is a simple alternative for wireless for guests with laptops. Bought for our PS3 and it works fine for online gaming. Signal is not as strong compared to my ddwrt linksys router but that took a day to configure (this was about 30 minutes from start to gaming. Totally flexible usage like a portable network port in the house. Only caveats are that it's a deal at $60 but a no brainer when I paid $35, second caveat is that the base is not weighted so it does frequently fall due to it's small size if the cables are tugged.

Well the price is much cheaper than the Xbox wireless N adapter, so I'm willing to put up with a few problems. I live on a really lousy power grid, and when the power went down, I had to redo the installation. That was a pain because I couldn't do the regular setup like I should have been able to. Manual setup is a pain, but fairly easy to follow. When it is connected it seems fairly fast and has good signal strength. Overall, good value for the money.

I purchased this device to replace a flaky DD-WRT bridge repeater that simply wouldn't retain a wireless connection, that required constant power-cycling and that I couldn't correct no matter what I did.
Using this with a 360, works great, now. Although the installation should be extremely simple and is, it would not pick up the network signal when the 360 was first turned on with unplugging and plugging in the unit. A firmware update fixed this. Now picks up the signal with the power button on the 360 like it should.
