|
|
I figured the Wii has wireless built in and can have wired. So can it use them both and like supply the internet to my 360.
I have my 360 and Wii in my room and wireless reaches my room but my wired defiently doesn't.
I was wondering if the Wii could be used as Wireless to wired or maybe even allow me to share media with my 360.

| No, but those wireless to ethernet bridges shouldn't be too expensive. |

| The 360 doesn't really play nice with Linux... |

wireless to wired router is about $80
the ethernet adapter for the Wii is $20
i have a switch thing that i used on my computer when i had dialup that let my 360 connect just by sharing the internet connection
it went internet -> pc -> ethernet -> switch -> ethernet -> 360
now it goes internet -> ethernet -> router -> ethernet -> 360 when I move my 360 but I like it in my room
I want it to go
internet -> ethernet -> router -> wii -> ethernet -> switch -> ethernet -> 360

what about
| Code: |
internet -> ethernet -> router ->Wii
->Xbox 360
->PC
|
If the router is wireless, then get a wireless adapter for the xbox, and if it's not, then get a wired adapter for the Wii.

Yes, that's bog standard network bridging, even embedded Linux can typically do that.
All you have to do is wait for Linux to come out for the Wii, and you'll be set, after entering a few commands. |
