Linksys Wireless-B Game Adapter: retro, simple: Gizmodo, source of all that is cool at whose feet we prostrate ourselves, noted that Linksys has put up a page about a new Ethernet bridge. It's not described as supporting multiple machines, and it has the geek cred of appearing more like an old fashioned walkie-talkie than a sleek new networking device.
The adapter has a switch-settable, LED displaying channel selector. With two units, ad hoc mode is enabled just by setting both to the same channel. With other networks, it obviously tries to make a hook-up via DHCP sans WEP; failing that, you need a PC to configure it.
Is this just a WET11 in a new box?

Apparently not. The WET11 doesn't stand up to the needs of simple local network play (at least for internet enabled consoles like Xbox for Xbox live)
For some reason having two Xboxs connected to the same network via WET11s can't sniff each other for system link play. - Hence the channel setup of the game adapter which solves the problem.
(not sure about the other systems)
