My router is in another room, so a LAN adapter won't do me any good. So i'll try what SoulSnatcher said first and see what happens.

But umm...How do you disable the wireless network again?

Deleted_171835 · Aug 30, 2011

To turn off the wireless you go to the Home Network section. On that page if you look at "Status at a Glance" you'll see Wireless with a button that says "Disable". Click that to disable the wireless.

Okay...But before I do this..Is there any other alternative way to connect wirelessly? Or like a wifi adapter?

Well, the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Adapter is one option but I would suggest against it. It has a number of problems. You could just purchase a regular wireless adapter, though.

So a regular wireless adapter would probably do the trick? (Assuming a wireless adapter works on a Wii.)

Link2356 · Aug 31, 2011

And if so, What would be a good adapter to recommend for me?

If you're expecting to be able to plug a usb wifi adapter into the wii, it's not going to work.

Link2356 · Aug 31, 2011

I figured that much. I meant something similar to the Nintendo Wifi Adapter.

Buy a new router.

A regular wireless adapter should work fine.

Did you try disabling the wireless and connecting the other router?

Link2356 · Sep 1, 2011

Yes I did. And that didn't work because I couldn't connect online even though it had full bars.

I think Imma try a regular wireless adapter, and hopfully that'll work.

Link2356 · Sep 1, 2011

Okay...So I finally got a Wii Lan Adapter, and took my old Linksys router in my room. Plug them both up and tried to connect....

Anyone wanna take a guess what happen? (Then again, I need to get a new router I think...)

tueidj · Sep 2, 2011

Please tell me you haven't installed some stupid hack that always makes the connection test fail.

Link2356 · Sep 2, 2011

Connection Hack? On the wii? I don't think so unless one of the cIos (or whatever) has something to do with it.

I highly doubt I did....But if I did, is there any way that I can fix that?

Quick question.. If I get a router to hook up (wired) to my wii, don't I need a modem as well? (For the router itself)

Anyone?

How about is there a way for me to turn off my firewall?
