Can I use my xbox 360 Wireless Adapter on my xbox one?

Incidentally, I checked on the page where one buys the receiver, and it says that it works for *any* wireless Xbox controller, so that shouldn't be the issue either.

Can you point us to the page so we can see which wireless adapter you bought?

Due to a change in the wireless protocol, Xbox 360 and Xbox One use a completely different "language" to talk wireless.

So unless a third party created a wireless receiver that can talk both protocols, I'm afraid the Xbox 360 controller will NOT work with a Xbox One compliant wireless adapter.

It might be, that the page says that you can use "any" Xbox One controller with the Adapter (e.g. standard wireless controllers, the Elite wireless controller, the wireless speed wheel, etc.), but you will NOT be able to use Xbox 360 accessories with a Xbox
One wireless adapter.

Thanks for the quick response!

I guess it doesn't matter which one it is if neither can work on my xbox one...

However, to answer your question, it's a Microsoft Wireless Networking Adapter used on my my xbox 360 for wireless connectivity to my network. I'm not using my 360 anymore so I thought I would use it on my xbox one to boost the signal.

I have a 900 Mbps per second wireless network, but my xbox one only shows moving at about 80 to 95 Mbps and just thought the 360 adapter might help.

If you have any suggestions on how to speed up my x-one (other than having a wired connection), I'd be interested in knowing what you think...

Thanks again!

You must get the
adapter specifically made for Xbox 360 controllers.

The Xbox Wireless Adapter you've bought is not backward compatible with 360 controllers.

Here is one on Amazon, for example (they don't sell it on the Microsoft store anymore).

Allow me to reiterate, I want a mono wireless headset or an adapter for the 360 wireless headset to work on Xbox one. Heck, I'd be happy if they let me use my 360 wireless headset.
