If you have a wireless router you won’t need the Wii LAN Adapter. However, if your internet connection is wired, your Wii will not be able to connect on it’s own, therefore you will need the “usb wii port.”

The internet channel? It shouldn’t have deleted it, but if it did you can re-download it free of charge from the Wii Shop Channel.

@starter656
My best bet is that your modem isnt wireless, in which case you’ll need the Wii LAN Adapter and a spare ethernet cable to create a wired internet connection.

You would first need to download the internet channel from the Wii Shop Channel, which I think is now free of charge, but then yes you could watch and comment on this video.
July 18th, 2010 at 9:08 pm
I heard you can just go on the internet on it once it’s hooked up…. Is that true? Like, if I hooked it up right now, could I watch and comment on this video with my Wii?

You have to download the Internet channel and other channels like the Everybody Votes channel manually via the Wii Shop Channel, they don’t just appear when you update. On your menu you should have the disc, mii, photo, shop, news and forecast channels already.

@iamsecksy it turns out i entered the wrong password >_> its a whole bunch of numbers so im not surprised i missed one number
July 18th, 2010 at 9:08 pm
@atiba1
I cannot give you the password. It’s like PIN number’s with bank accounts; I don’t know yours. You don’t know mine. You have to find out the password from the person who set up the connection, and that was not me. Good luck getting connected.

@mrkrabbz44
Does it give you an error code or merely say it can’t connect.

If you don’t have a router and you want to access the internet on your Wii then you will need a Wii LAN Adapter. This is a cable which enables a connection from your ethernet port to one of the USB ports on the back of the Wii console. Basically, it gives you everything having a router would but it is through a wired connection rather than wireless. Contact Nintendo/your local retail store for information on ordering one.
