[mythtv-users] 54G wireless info

[Scott Blomfield]

I got my (belkin 54g) wireless router/bridge and (belkin 54g) PCI NIC
for $99 (total) after rebates from CompUSA.com. Good deal for you too
though.

Really don't know how to check the link status on the xbox.  Distance
wise 
the router
and bridge are on opposite sides of the house (40ish feet?).   The game 
adapater doesn't
have a web interface like the regular Linksys bridge so you have to 
configure it on a windows
pc, then plug into the xbox and let it go.  The game adapter is $99 US
and 
the regular 54G bridge is $150 US.
