I would not be personally inclined to leech off your neighbors wireless when using any region changer, ios downgrader, or wanin's 4.0 updater. If you get disconnected at the wrong time during these installs, I'm pretty sure you could brick. So better to do with a reliable connection. If you can get a hold of the wad for your system menu, installing that may fix your problem.
I guess in your situation, you might need a fresh firmware to do anything. You did say you can use bootmii right. You could try to run wanin's 4.0 updater (on your neighbors) and see if that fixes your problem. Even if it bricks, you should be able to restore the nand of your bricked wii to the state it's in now. So you'd be right where you started. No harm done.
You might be screwed. In order to restore your wii you need either a) a backup of your wii's nand in a functional state, b) the ability to install wads to reinstall your system menu, or c) the ability to connect online to upgrade/downgrade.
You can't do a) because you made a backup of your wii's nand after it was already bricked. You can't do b) because you can't navigate the wad manager menu's without working wiimotes. You can't do c) because you need to set up a new connection, but cannot because you can't access the system menu.
You could try to get a different router and hook it up at your house. I'm not sure if a new connection will be needed to be set up, but it might work if you just plug it in like your old one. If you can't restore your nand, install wads, or connect online, I don't see how anyone could fix your wii.

What exactly did you do to brick your wii?
remove ios? remove system menu?
I'm sure wad manager can be compiled easily to support gc controllers...

I repaired my router. I dont even know how I bricked my wii because I didnt install any wads, the only thing I did with my softmodded wii was installing apps in HBC using homebrew browser. That wadmanager 1.4 ninja mod thingy worked fine with gc controller, I just need to know how to (re)install system menu 4.0...
Btw is it true that 4.1 is released in euro and usa? If I could install that by wads, it might solve my problem... does anyone know about that wad?

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
