Hey guys,
I went to a local gaming store that doesn't seem to know much about networking. Since they ran out of the X-Bawks wireless adapters, they sold me a Netgear wireless access point at a discount.

Specifically, it's a Netgear WG602 Access Point.

I'm not sure if this is even possible, but can I use this thing as an adapter?

Possibly unreasonable idea: Bridge - Does it mean I can directly bridge this thing with a wireless router and use it as a false LAN?

HALP

I suppose you could hook your XBox to the adapter with an ethernet cable, which will just link up to a wi-fi signal, but I think you have to go in manually on a laptop or computer to enable it internet access.

The link above has folks talking explicitly about the thing you just bought and XBox Live.

This link is sort of kind of related.

Actually reading into these links, I don't think it helps much. It sounds like you have to keep your laptop or computer connected to the XBox for this setup to work. Like, connect the XBox to the adapter, then the adapter to your laptop. Or...something. Oh god I am not helping

It's cool, bro. Thanks for the help!

My roommate decided to say fuck it and drilled a hole in the wall (well, something slightly more sophisticated using power outlets) and ran a cable through. Good times.
