Ok, theres a difference between the usb adapter that you gave a link for, and a network adapter like the Linksys Wireless-G game adapter that uses a lan cable to hook to the xbox. To my knowledge, you CAN'T use usb unless it's the microsoft one. So your only option is an adapter that uses the lan connection to your Xbox, like the game adapter. Thats probably what your friend has.
