  1. Xbox Wireless adapter for my pc isn't working


    I got this

    https://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Xbox-Wireless-Adapter-Windows-Packaging/dp/B0785SFKYF/ref=sr_1_3?crid=EX3X0RCZGDHP&dchild=1&keywords=xbox+wireless+adapter&qid=1609025163&sprefix=xbox+wi%2Caps%2C232&sr=8-3

    for Christmas, after plugging it in to play some games with a controller it didn't work, I tried the solution Microsoft said, that didn't work, I also tried some things that some guides said would work but they didn't. What should I do?

    :)

    Wireless Adaptor problem

    From my experience with wireless adapters if you use anything other than a wireless adapter for the Xbox it won't work. Most adapters for pc or other devices won't work for gaming systems

    No power to the USB on XBox One S to connect wireless keyboard?

    thanks for responding. Thats my point, I have a keyboard and bluetooth adapter, but the adapter isnt powered when put in the Xbox, but fine on the PC.
    That's because BT keyboards don't work. Not all wireless keyboards are Bluetooth.

    Logitech wiress keyboards for example work on Xbox, they use their own direct wireless protocol, this isn't Bluetooth.

    These keyboards are already paired to the receiver dongle. That's why they just work, BT ones don't.

    Xbox one controller causes FPS drop, decrease gaming performance on Windows 10

    Interesting, because I'm using the Xbox One controller with the wireless adapter and it works flawlessly with no FPS drops. Some software in your PC just isn't agreeing with the controller. Maybe try wiping your PC and reinstalling from scratch.

    What wireless adapter is needed to connect xbox elite controller to windows 10?

    That adapter will WORK with the Elite controller.

    When I got my Oculus Rift, the set included the older model of the Xbox Wireless USB Adapter with a Xbox controller, and my Elite Controller works on my Windows 10 PC with that adapter.

    The newer version is simply a bit smaller.

    So you do NOT need a special "Elite" wireless adapter (which doesn't exist).

    Xbox 360 Wireless adapter on PC

    I don't think you can use the wireless adapter on your PC. It certainly isn't officially supported. Yes, the PC will recognize it as a Wireless Networking Adapter when you plug it into the USB port, but there are no drivers available for this.

    With wireless USB adapters for PC's being so cheap these days; I would recommend you get one of those instead.
