Connecting the wireless xbox 360 controller with the charger?

Well I know that its not supposed to work as microsoft wants you to buy their wireless adapter. I would like to know if anyone has a crack to use the charger for the battery packs OR to connect the controller onto your Wi-Fi and access it.

The USB cord for the charger doesn’t have the wires necessary to pass data. The wireless controller uses a proprietary wireless signal, so a bluetooth receiver won’t work.
How would you even think it could connect via Wi-Fi? How many peripheral devices; i.e.: mice, keyboards, controllers; have you ever heard of using Wi-Fi?
The wireless controller does not have the electronics in it to turn it into a wired controller. The only way to get an Xbox 360 wireless controller to connect to a PC is to buy and install Microsoft’s wireless receiver.
