I use my macbook to connect my xbox360 to live. I use an ethernet cable to connect to my xbox360 to my macbook. Then the macbook connects to my WRT56G wireless router and I'm on live, this worked perfectly. I didn't have to buy the Microsoft USB adapter. I haven't tried this setup with my new AEBS yet; I'm sure it will work fine.
Got a tip for us?

WRT54G is crap. WRT54GL is probably the cheapest best router.
WRT54GL on Newegg for today is $48.99 ($5 off) with promo code EMCAEAJCD. It always has free shipping and no tax.

Draft?
So, these routers that have draft N - will they be compatible when the N is finalized? Kind of a gray area for me...

Netopia 3387WG-ENT. Mostly for the built-in VPN server allows me to connect to my home network from the road via PPTP and keep a dedicated connection to my clients through router-to-router IPSec connections.
This router only does 802.11g, but we don't have any 802.11n-capable portable devices in the house anyway.

Just returned my D-Link DIR-655 and got myself a Time Capsule. I always wanted one so I just decided to screw it and get it and now I'm totally satisfied 🙂 Took about 20 hours to backup both my iMac and Macbook wirelessly but it never failed 😀 I'm loving my Time Capsule.
For some reason the Time Capsule has a more consistent stable fast speed than the D-Link 🙄 Maybe I am just imagining things.

WRT54GS v2 here flashed with hyperwrt. Never an issue. I use this with an 
TV and stream everything. I bought it off ebay for $45 shipped with the high gain antennas after a lightning strike at our house took it out. Couldn't be happier.
