i wouldn't say it would be impossible, but it'd be difficult. it would render the Original port useless unless you used an inline relay which was more work than i wanted to do. and this way i can use the original Ethernet port and also plug my adapter into my router if i need to in the future. without pulling everything apart

There aren't any firmware updates/hacks that i know of, My network was already setup for to WPA2/TKIP when i bought my router/modem. I'm sure there are other adapters that support the newer security encryption, Though i don't know any off the top of my head.

Not likely, The 360 wireless adapter requires drivers that the 360 has built into its operating System.

Sale is Pending.

How did you manage to paint the numbers above the controller ports? Thats something id like to do but last time i tried to, it didnt turn out so good.

Thanks man! Once my leds show up, the window and controller ports will be lit up Red. Ive tried goof off and it got the paint off fast but turned the jewel foggy. I didn't want to risk this one.

This is a brief guide on how to change your jewel color. There are a few different ways to do this. There is NO quick and easy way to do ot that doesn't risk damaging your jewel. What you need Brasso or similar metal polish. A rag or polishing cloth some type of candle if you want to paint it then paint, color of your choice. and a whole lot of time/ Elbow Grease. First You'll have to take your jewel off your console, Not gonna explain this because there are several different methods that you can find elsewhere. Once you have your jewel off you'll need to clean the Black goop off. I forgot to get pictures of this part, But all i do is rub it with a clean dry cloth with my thumb till its all gone. Then you'll need to rub some candle wax into the letters of the jewel so you don't remove the chrome paint.. After that's done you'll need to get to work with the brasso. Its very time consuming (Took me about 2 or 3 hours working on and off) Just keep rubbing (Think of dory) lol Keep going!! I didn't get a picture of it once it was all clear, But you get the idea, Right? After you get all the green off you want to run the jewel under some Hot water to remove the wax, (I used some dish soap and a SOFT brush to help work it out faster.) After its dry you can keep it clear or add some paint of your chosen color. once its dried you can glue it back onto your console and Enjoy all your hard work..

You need to sign into your Router and go to "connected devices" then find your adapter by its Mac Address. once you find it, click on it and write down its ip address. The you type its IP address into your address(Search) bar and you should be able to set it up there.

i didnt have a disc. i just signed into the adapter using its IP address and set it up that way.

Thanks man. i cant wit till the rest of my parts get here.

Alright guys. The time has come. Here I'm gonna be adding an internal WiFi adapter to my OG Xbox because, lets face it, Wires are ugly, they get chewed by your dogs and people trip over them. and come on WiFi in an OG Xbox!! Heres a list of Tools and Materials you'll need Torx T20 Torx T10 Soldering Iron Solder Drill with assorted bits Wire Cutters Heatshrink or Electrical Tape Multi-Meter Dremel with cutting disc or small hand saw. Assorted files or sand paper Wireless bridge gaming adapter RP-SMA Female to Male Pigtail Rj45(Ethernet) Female to Male adapter some Motherboard standoffs with matching screws I got the idea from the youtube user "Thewheelman282" Link to video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zG8DQ3Omfk To start you'll need to pull apart your console. I'm not gonna explain how to because there are Many sources for this elsewhere. Next you need to figure out where you want to mount the adapter. again I'm doing what he did in the video and mounting it to the bottom of the DVD drive. If doing the same you'll need to pull apart your DVD drive too. Every drive is different, mine is a Samsung with 4 screws on the bottom. Once you have the bottom half of your drive, You'll want to Pull apart your adapter and mark out your mounting holes. Now use your drill to drill them out. Start small, you can always make the hole bigger if you need to. Time to add the MoBo standoffs, I used 6 of them and cut the screw part off the ones that go inside the drive. Now you can mount your adapter and put your drive back together. Now its time to start cutting wires. Get your multi-meter and determine what wires you need to splice into. Since my adapter uses 5v I used Pin 01(Ground) and Pin 08(5V) Heres the Pinout for the Drive side of the DVD plug Next your gonna need to figure out where you want your adapters Ethernet port to be. I used the same location as in the video for simplicity. Now your gonna want to get your RJ45(Ethernet) Male to Female converter/Extension and see if it will fit. (Mine did not so i had to trim it down) In the process of trimming it, I nicked a few wires so I had to pull it completely apart to trace each pin with a multi-meter and solder each wire back into place. (Dont make the same mistake I did and take your time!!) I was impatient and rushing. now you can Take your dremel and start cutting the hole for your RJ45 port, Once cut it should look something like this.(Again I was rushing, So its not as clean as Id like it to be) you'll want to test fit the plug, then clean up the cuts with a file or sand paper. Then mount your new port to the top of the existing one. I used a few drops of Super glue to accomplish this. \ Now you'll need to drill a hole for your RP-SMA Pigtail. (Antenna extension wire) I chose to put it beside the Ethernet ports. Ignore ignore the hole by the Ethernet port. Thats for my USB ports. I put a piece of heatshrink around the metal antenna connector so it doesnt cause any shorts or problems once its put back together \ Its a tight sqeez but everything fits inside nicely, just be patient while your putting things back where they go. Now you can put it all back together so you can Admire all your hard work and enjoy your now Wireless Xbox. Let me know what you guys think. This is my FIRST Tutorial/Write up. Tried to give clear info, If you need any additional info ill be glad to help out.

Welcome!! The Family grows by 1!

you could also use an inline relay, That way when you plug something into the Controller port it automatically disables the usb port. Same idea as with the internal DVD kit mod

just remember if you add the USB ports without removing the controller ports, you can have a controller and a usb plugged into the same port at the same time. And It certainly is a Harddrive light! and the jewel actually has leds behind it Lighting the "XBOX" lettering

I just built a slim yesterday, And was gettin ready to make a write up of mine, I used a 3.5" Drive and Cut up the original fan to make it fit. Hope to see your build soon. Heres a couple pics of mine while we wait for yours..

Thanks man. Cant help but notice your name. Gave me a good Chuckle when it hit me!
