i have a linksys bridge that works fine for both my original xbox and now my
360.  However, you should be aware that you can buy a linksys router (a
54wrtg) for cheaper than most of these, and it will do the job and then
some.  Put an open source firmware on the 54wrtg, and put it in client
mode.  It will then get wireless feed from your other router, and you now
have 5 or 6 ports for your entertainment center instead of just one for your
xbox, and likely for less money than the wireless adapter (you can get a
wrtg on newegg for 39.99 after rebate right now).

I'm going to switch to this setup this weekend so I can hack my HD-tivo and
have something for it to plug into along side the 360.  This will
future-proof you for the ps3 too... but the revolution will have built in
wireless, so you won't need it.
