Well, last night I couldn't connect to XBL and after testing the connection, the system kept telling me to connect the Wireless adapter.  The thing is, the adapter was already connected, it looks like it just stopped working.  
 
Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have any tips on what I can do about this? (aside from getting a new one or a new Xbox Slim).   
 
I'm going to call xbox support when I get home from work tonight to see if there is anything that can be done. 
 
I'm just happy my Gold account subscription ended recently so at least I'm not really paying to use a service I can not connect to.
