Boost A Wireless Adapter For Xbox 360

Boost a Wireless Adapter for XBox 360


If you find that your Xbox 360's wireless adapter isn't receiving a strong enough signal from your wireless router, or if you are experiencing frequent connection loss, there are several steps you can take to boost your signal. While the location of your router is important in determining the Xbox 360's wireless adapter's signal, a WiFi signal booster can also help ensure your Xbox Live sessions aren't prematurely terminated due to a low-quality WiFi signal.


Instructions


1. Move your wireless router to a central location in your network, keeping in mind that the router should be at waist level at the very least, not on the ground.


2. Plug in the Linksys Wireless-G Range Expander in the room where your wireless router is. You'll move the range expander later, but for setup purposes, it should be in the same location as your wireless router.


3. Press the Linksys Wireless-G Range Expander's "Auto Configuration" button for five seconds, which will allow the range expander to detect your wireless network and configure itself with the appropriate settings.


4. Unplug the Linksys Wireless-G Range Expander and relocate it to a location closer to the Xbox 360.


5. Ensure that the antenna for the Linksys Wireless-G Range Expander is pointing upward, and keep in mind that the higher the range expander is placed, the better performance you will get out of it.


6. Plug the Linksys Wireless-G Range Expander back in, and your wireless network should have a much greater range, ensuring that your Xbox 360 is able to maintain a good connection to the network.
