I think it might depend on the strength of your connection. But otherwise it really shouldn't take more than 2-3 minutes unless it is a somewhat large update.

depends on your connection. Mine take no longer than a minute but I've heard of people's taking numerous tries (do to freezing after several hours) or quite a few hours.

My wii usually updates in a few mins, but my neighbour next door also has a wii and it takes him 20 mintues sometimes. It all depends on your connection.

Yeah, I'm using a Wireless router about 15 feet away and updates take me around 10 Minutes. Getting the Internet connection routed to my room. Going ot have like no lag super speed hehe. As for you 10 - 20 Minutes is all it should take, If your using a WIFI adapter on dial up at aroung 30 feet you may experience longer times

The greater your Wireless signal, the faster your update will be.

Welcome to Wiichat.

I'm guessing by the games you own your a youngster. But why would you start posting information about yourself in a thread about wii updates?

Heres a good spot on Wiichat to post stuff about you: http://www.wiichat.com/introduce-yourself/
