BT has partnered with Microsoft's XBox Live® service to offer new residential 'Total Broadband' subscribers a free Xbox 360 Wireless Adapter (£59.99):
The Xbox 360 Wireless Adapter allows you to connect your Xbox 360 wirelessly to BT Total Broadband via the BT Home Hub.
BT Total Broadband customers could benefit from ultra-fast download speeds of up to 8Mb2 enabling gamers to move up to a completely new level of online multi-player gaming with speeds which allow the game to react as quickly as the players. Gamers will be able to experience exceptional stability with any action delays reduced to an absolute minimum, incredibly smooth 'real time' game play and advanced online gaming features with Xbox Live®.
The offer, which is available to new Broadband customers and those who switch from another supplier, will be available through
http://www.bt.com/xboxoffer or call 0870 607 27773 for help with placing your order until June 30th 2007. BT Total Broadband is available from £9.95 a month for the first six months4.
It's worth pointing out that the 360's wireless adapter is technically just the same as any other
Wi-Fi kit, merely designed specifically to fit Microsoft's console. Typically it will work with any router and not just BT's restrictive Home Hub hardware.
