Can the Wii convert broadband to wifi?

What I mean is, if I get the Wii and I have a broadband connection, can I get online with my DS?

I think I see what you're asking - you're trying to see if your Wii can act as a router if you were to use the USB -> ethernet adaptor and plug it into your modem.

I'm pretty sure the answer is No.

Of course, if you're using the WiFi to connect your Wii to a wireless router, your DS would be able to get online through your router, but (most likely) not through the Wii.

Thats kinda what I figured. Ty.

Broadband meaning DSL or Cable, you would still have to have an incoming line going through a DSL or Cable modem. Then you can connect it to anything with a NIC. But the whole "convert broadband to wifi" thing doesn't really make any sense.
