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.

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.
