KR1 and XBox 360 Compatibility?

Has anyone gotten the KR1 to connect to the XBox 360 via wireless? I can get it to work with a wired ethernet connection, but not with the wireless adapter. The XBox finds the wireless network, but just says "Not Connected" even after I enter the WPA key. I have tried it with WPA, WEP, and no security, and still no luck. Previously, I had the XBox connected to a DLink wireless G router (not EVDO) with no problems, and I can still connect to the neighbor's unsecured router, just not the KR1. Any thoughts?

Don't bother with Microsoft's wireless network adapter....it's got a short list of routers that it's compatible with:
xbox.com/en-US/support/connecttolive/xbox360/homenetworking/equipment.htm
...and EVDO routers aren't on that list.

I tried for a long time to get the fabulous KR2 to work...but no success.

So I returned it and picked up a wireless ethernet router and it worked flawlessly.
I happened to get a Linksys Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge WET54G:
google.com/products/catalog?q=wet54g&btnG=Search+Products&cid=2048848697795117947
...but there's all kinds of wireless bridges out there.

The cool thing is, once you get the bridge setup on your network, it will work with pretty much anything....XBOX 360, original XBOX, PS3, laptop, PC, printer....anything wired.
It's a really good option.

The Microsoft wireless network adapter sounds like a good idea, and if it worked it would be....heck it's attached right to the console and pretty easy to install.
It just doesn't play well with EVDO routers.

Try the wireless bridge route.
It works really well.
