MN-700 issues extending wireless Network

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

the 700 will not bridge wirelessly, it must be hardwired. what you need is
an XBOX adapter - MN-740. you can configure that on the XBOX, then connect a
switch or hub to it and connect both the XBOX and the PC to the switch.
