I have an independently powered (powered through the 360) high speed USB2.0 Splitter Connected to the rear USB port on my 360, and then I have the Xbox 360 wireless adapter connected into the splitter. It works on Xbox Live but will it slow my Xbox Live internet connection down? I can’t see a noticeable difference but every bit of data affects you in the end. cool.gif

Edit: My bad, I forgot to mention, it is a 4-port Hub, if that makes a difference at all.

No it won't slow the data flow from Xbox Live?

i'm not using a hub but im using a 6ft 2.0 cable . i have my wireless mounted on the top of the wall , noticed a increase in signal ( big time ) . might try one of the usb acclerator devices on it or put on a splitter and try using two or more wireless adapters at the same time .

it wont slow it down, as long as the cable is shorter than 15 feet.

there is no such thing as a USB accelerator. 2 wireless adapters wont help, and might confuse the 360. (i dont know) if not, only one would be used.

no he didn't, I was almost 100% sure that it would not help the signal, because it is just an extra piece in the way, I was worried that it would hurt the signal, he answered my question great.

- thank you all.
