360 wireless adaptar alternatives

Im looking to set my 360 up wirelessly, but i dont feel like spending 100 bucks on the adapter, ive heard of some people using USB wireless adapters, or creating a wireless bridge between routers, are either of those going to slow down my connection, or would i just be further ahead to use the adapter?
