Cool Wireless N Network Adapter

Amazon (or rather a third party seller through the site) is selling this for £36.00 at the mo for fat consoles. Grab it while you can, as I cant see it staying at this price for long.

Re: Wireless N Network Adapter

Received it, hooked it up, but its connecting in G mode!!!!!! How do I change it? I have checked the homehub, and thats set to B/G/N as a couple of other laptops in the house only have G Wireless chips in them.

Help is much appreciated. Oh yeah and the disc that cam with it, when you insert it it just says mixed media.

Well contacted Microsoft, as it then decided it wouldnt pick up any networks and they seem to think that it may be faulty.

Re: Wireless N Network Adapter

Got a replacement today, but its showing only 1 bar of strength, where as my G adapter shows 3 at max. Also how do I change it to operate in N mode?

I thought it automatically connected to the faster of the signals available?
