How to Set Up Xbox Live Wireless Adaptor

The Xbox systems do not come with a wireless card installed. Therefore, you must buy a Microsoft specific wireless adapter to get connected to the Internet wirelessly. The original Xbox wireless adapter, the MN-740, will allow you to get connected to the Internet so you can start playing Xbox Live with your friends.
