for any wireless network work you need the following two things working in conjunction with eachother:
1: a wireless signal (from your own wireless router, or one you "steal" from a neighbor)
2: a wireless receiver (built-in, usb adapter, etc)
so yes you can use the usb to get on the net, but only with a signal, probably from your own wireless router.

No. You can't use the internet router for a wireless adapter, because the X-box 360 has a USB port in the back, where the $100 dollar wireless adapter goes. The router is the internet transmitter/receiver, while the wireless adapter is a receiver. And when I say a receiver for the router, it means it will only take the internet and transmit it to you.
