The Wii uses 802.11b/g Wi-Fi. How hard is it to set up a wireless router and hook the Wii up to the internet?

my router detected connection settings automatically, where i live the VCI and VPI values are different to the majority of the UK but it found them straight away.

i suggest this router.

one firmware update and NDS and Wii are good to go.

And what would I need if I just wanted to run a cable to it? I hear you need to buy an adapter to plug into the Wii or something.

I have a Netgear router. Tooko me a while to set it up because I realised it was because of a setting on my PC that made it not work. If the Wii is like the DS then going online with it is a piece of cake.

an Ethernet adapter is coming out for the Wii in the new year, again you could use that router.

i plug my laptop, desktop and xbox into the router and connect my DS and Wii wirelessly

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
