Well there's only 2 ports on the back of the Xbox for wireless adapters to connect to. There is a USB port and an ethernet port. The only USB port that can connect is the official Microsoft Wireless adapter. All other adapters like PCI and PCMCIA will not even physically connect. The only wireless adapter that can connect to the ethernet port are wireless range extenders that can be configured as bridges. This is way complicated than what most people know how to do.
There is a much easier way to connect your Xbox. You can buy a powerline kit in a 2 pack. The bottom link below will show you what you can buy:

One guy who gave this a bad rating is trying to stream Blue Ray media to other devices on his network. This is not designed for that. It cannot handle streaming HD. It's plenty fast enough for your Xbox. Be sure to read the reviews.
