What our customer's say!

"You have to have this!", I have had these two little boxes for about 2 years now and they are hands-down, the best accessory that I have ever purchased! The connection requires about 30-60 seconds of your time (depends on how far you have to walk to plug the other side in) and the speed is fantastic. Occassionally after a power outage I need to unplug the receiving side for about 5 seconds before it will transmit again but that is the ONLY problem I have ever had with the little beauties. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone looking to strech their high-speed connection into different areas.

"Works well but be forewarned....", I used this great product with my PS2 and it served it's purpose, but you should be wary that you may be back on Amazon within a year ordering it again. This is due to the fact it's only good a year, which I SUPPOSE is okay since it has a one year warranty on it.

Also, it's probably obvious, but a good way to see if the Playlink is causing network problems would be to connect it to your computer and see if you can surf at a normal speed without odd hangups or you could try to connect the game system directly to the modem/router.

"Very simple to use. Incredibly slow downloads. Poor durability.", The play link is incredibly easy to use, but it doesn't have much bandwidth. Downloads literally take 20 times as long as a true wired connection. I'm not exagerating, it's extraordinarily slow. Playing on xbox live works great and thats what I used it for most of the time. Navigating the internet and/or downloading anything on any device plugged into it (including the 360) is very very slow.

You can use it to connect anything with a network port to anything else with a network port. It gets better signal than any wireless card I've ever used. I used it for a number of different computers and 2 xbox 360's.

I enjoyed the ease of use, unfortunately I was only able to enjoy it for about 10 months. I purchased it in January 2007 and it broke about a month ago. It's not very reliable. That, and the horrible download speed make me give it a low review. Another strange tid-bit. I bought it for less than $30 shipped a year ago. Whats up with these prices?!?!

"Great Item -- but watch the price", I got this as an alternative to the grossly overpriced Microsoft XBox 360 Wireless Adapter.

This device is, if anything, easier to use. It comes with 2 boxes -- one plugs into your XBox ethernet port, the other plugs into your router. There is no setup. There is nothing to configure on the XBox. As far as the XBox is concerned, this is a regular ethernet linkup and it just starts working.

I hooked it up, did some rounds of COD4 and downloaded a movie and I noticed no difference versus when I had the XBox plugged directly in to my router (but I didn't want my router in my living room, which is why I got this).

You should also be able to use these for any no-setup wireless connection you want. It's the "Xbox Play Link" but there's really nothing about it that makes it specific to the XBox. It will work for anything. (The boxes themselves do not say "Xbox" anywhere on them.)


Word of caution, though:
Check the prices.

As of the time of this writing, Amazon is not stocking the device and you can only buy it through 3rd parties. I was lucky and got it through a 3rd party here for a good price, but now I see only one place selling it, and they've marked it up considerably. Shop around before you buy.

Also note that any "wireless bridge adapter" will very likely work, if you are unable to find this particular device. Just make sure the transfer rate of the bridge adapter is in the 1.5 Mbps rater or higher, so you can fully utilize your high speed internet through it.


"Works fine for online play, but downloads are super slow", I bought this item several months ago instead of shelling out $100 for the Microsoft adapter. I play online a lot and have never had a problem with online play. My 360 is upstairs on one end of the house while my router is in the basement on the opposite side of the house. Never had a problem with Gears of War, Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, etc. But Xbox Live downloads are extremely slow. Demos that are 750mb - 1gb usually take 3-5 hours to download. I'm also unable to hook up with my computer wirelessly because the connection is too slow. I've actually had some problems getting online since the recent Xbox Live update (Dec. 2007) - not sure if that is because of this adapter or not. I'd give this item 3 stars for performance but gave it 4 stars because of the affordable price. I'm going to buy the Microsoft wireless adapter because it takes up less space, doesn't need an outlet and is faster.

"Logitech Play Link", Great alternative to the Wireless Network Adapter for the Xbox 360. I wasn't about to pay $100+ for wireless internet for my 360 so I bought this on eBay for $20 including shipping. Works great!

"Works awesome!", I've got this play link running through 3 walls and it has a strong connection. This is really ideal for any house that isn't a mansion.

"Excellent product, excellent price", At first, I though it should have any kind of failure or I couldn't be so good for the price, but I was wrong, it's AWESOME, you can connect any playing console with this and get it online without any problem. I love this product!

""The Solution" for PS3 20 GB wifi", For my PS3 20 GB I first had to use an ethernet cord for online play which doesn't bother me at all. I then moved into a new house where my room is below and nowhere close to my lynksys router. This is "The Solution" for those with the same problem.

(Ease of use)-Extremely easy. Plug one into your wireless router and the other into your PS3 via ethernet cables that are provided.
(Speed)-Not as fast as I'd like but it gets the job done
(Price)- At $25 it was a must buy for wifi bypass. $50-$65 cheaper than the 360 wifi adapter at($88).

It's a good thing Sony allows you to purchase any 3rd party compatible electronic accessory to upgrade your PS3.

"Simple and effective", This is such a great product, it works for all electronic devices that can connect to the internet, be it a laptop, Playstation 2, Xbox, Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and likely a slew of other things. A great alternative to the Xbox 360 Wireless adapter, great connection through walls, and doesnt lag at all.
