*There fixed it for ya. I agree completely that $100 is too expensive(though this is a dual band wireless n one, which should count for something) and the $80 is just a complete and total ripoff, but those $15 wireless n dongles are complete pieces of crap which, if you're lucky, might last a week before dying completely.
has nothing to do with the xbox 360 preventing them from working, its because those adapters require drivers so the 360 doesnt recognize the devices, it has to be self contained bridge solution. there are gaming adapters which are wifi bridges which work fine with 360.
thats the thing you just bash on a console that you know little about and have no intention on buying why even talk other than showing off your obvious fanboy zeal intentions.

For pete's sake! You can buy a wifi dongle for $15!
WiFi dongles don't work on the 360. They are programmed to prevent it. The wifi adapter also won't work with a PC.

I've got a belkin one that was a little more expensive than that (come down in price now though) that's lasted years.
