why does it take 5 - 10 minutes for the wireless adapter to switch on ?

why the hell do i have to spend about 5 minutes plugging, unplugging and 'trying to connect' to live when i have switched my 360 off from the mains?

you know the light on the adapter? it doesnt even come on, in red, until you have fiddled with it for 5 mimutes... then it lets you connect then goes green.. youd expect more for a £60 adapter although it probably cost about £1 to manufacture.

Have you tried in in all USB points? If so I would return it for replacement.

its like 3 years old, its always done it though... not a major issue though.

It hasnt been a problem, because it only happens when i swicth it off from the mains socket, i leave it plugged in with mains power going to the power brick its fine.

If i switch my 360 off using the button on the front of the 360, and then unplug/switch off the mains it takes 5 mins to fiddle with before it springs to life when i try to log back on.

i thought it might be some sort of crappy MS authentication stuff.

But major enough to cry about it on a forum

naa, not crying, just wondered if it was infact a fault or if it was normal...
