If I buy an Xbox 360 wireless router, will sync up to my wireless N network?

Question

I was reading that It works for an A/B/G wireless network but not an N. Will this be a problem. I really want to get one but I don't want to if it won't work.

Answer 1

N is backwards compatible with G and B, so as long as you have your router set up to transmit all of those protocols, it will work just fine.  If you have your router set up to transmit only N, you will just need to go into the router settings and make sure G is turned on too.

Answer 2

i believe u mean wireless adapter rather than router (since u must already have a router bc u say u have a draft N network). if that's is all correct than yes it will work but it will not achieve draft N speed and more than likely slow any N devices down though.

Answer 3

You are talking about the xbox 360 network adapter.  It's not a router.  It will work as long as it runs on the same frequency band.  Wireless networks run on the 2.4 and 5 GHz spectrum.  As long as all of your devices are compatible with one or the other, it will work.  B, G, and N all use the 2.4 GHz range.
