How to Connect Xbox Wi-Fi

The Xbox 360 comes with a few added features exclusive to the updated version of Microsoft's gaming machine. For instance, the Xbox 360 includes a 250 GB hard drive and decreased fan noise--all in a redesigned, more petite size. The new version of the console also comes equipped with built-in Wi-Fi capabilities, meaning the console can connect to the Internet wirelessly. This allows gamers to access Xbox Live using their home router and no extra Ethernet cables.
