OP!!! WHICH USB PORTS IS YOUR ETHERNET ADAPTER PLUGGED INTO!!!
If it's in the FRONT ports: You're doing it wrong. vWii will only see the back ports. The front ones don't exist to the vWii.
If it's in the BACK ports: Then I got nothing. Provide your LAN adapter MAC address to your network admin and ask them to whitelist it.

Also bro, I have the old router from when I had NETGEAR. Not supposing it'd work, because we have spectrum. But, if it would even work, would I be able to use a WiFi repeater to connect to the network? I know it'd probably not work since you need a plan to use it (NETGEAR is pretty modern and it's helpline is shit) but instead of using my PC as a hotspot, could I?

You could try. Not entirely sure if it'd work, but you could

OP, this is what the Wii U looks like connected to my hotspot on my PC. This may be able to help.

Is your home connection 5Ghz, by any chance?
