Max wired/wireless speed for Wii U

[emmanu888]

Not sure why would need the Wii U wired to your network, that is kinda wasting money buying an usb 2.0 to ethernet adapter.

Online games. I can't tell how many times i got disconnected from a match in Splatoon because of the weak Wifi that the Wii U has.
When i went wired i stopped getting disconnected.

Hey question for you, does a Wii U LAN adapter work with the vWii? Does it need to be connected to the back ports or can you connect it to the front ports as well?

Yea it works with it and it needs to be the back USB ports as the vWii can't access the front ones iirc tho i could be wrong as i have never checked.

Fun fact here is the Wii U LAN adapter is litteraly the same as the one for the Wii, as in same model and everything.
only difference is the box it came in said Wii U

Not like he can do much with 30 Mbps, if he has a modded wii u, I don't see him needing an ethernet adapter with the eshop shutting down. He just be wasting money.

First, the eShop isn't closing down completely, and second, the eShop isn't the start and end of the Wii U's network functionalities.
