Wii Troubleshooting

som1

the blue light stays on when u got a message from some 1 else and wiiconnect24 is on

androidkaita

Really? Then how can I make sure connect24 is on, because Im pretty sure its on, and there is no light

Skapple

Christ, does anyone read anymore? They put the manuals in there for a reason.

Go to your Wii Settings, connection, 24connect on or off
The blue light only means data is being transferred.

mr_wii

Ya so got my wii for xmas and it connects to my router just fine(3full bars) but when the time comes to update it gets about 5-10% and stops. Any suggestions???

Gaz

check your firewall and router settings to see if it is stopping anything.

mr_wii

i waited for 4-5 mins and still nothing.

timmyboy92

so the blue light is not supposed to stay on when you are not connected because i tought i had a affected wii

dcofty

no the blue light only flashes when you turn on the wii, insert a disc into the wii or if you have connect24 on then when u recieve a message, once u read the message the light goes off until u recieve another message. So no it doesnt stay on, if u would like the blue light, I sugeest the cooling stand it has the same blue light and it stays on.

Hello! I've had a wii problem myself, when i got my wii i played my games like twice, then the third time i went to put a brand new wii game in and it would take the game but only halfway and spit it back out, i know i put it in there right and for good measure i tried my other games as well for assurance, nope still not working, so now i'm waiting on my replacement wii via mail.

Riviet

Just be patient, in the meantime I guess you could try to PM him for more help.
Check that all your cables, particularly the power one, are good and hold on the power button for a bit longer as it doesn't switch on immediately if you just press it quickly.

I havent even got my wii yet and im reading all of this and im wondering isit really worth it?
I mean do these problems happen 2 the majortiy of users (cos im usually the lucky one .........

Seriously though.... and also is overheating a problem? Should i get that cooling stand?

Feedbak appreciated sfe

Ender

As to whether it's worth it or not, thats up to you. If you do get a faulty wii, nintendo will replace it for free so there's no worries about not having one that works right eventually. I have noticed that while in standby mode mine gets pretty warm, and laying it on its side does help the cooling during gameplay. That is, unless you have a cooling stand. I have noticed that the majority of users do not have problems, it only seems that way since those with problems are more likely to come to the forums. As for waiting for a later gen wii, i don't see what they couldn't fix through Wiiconnect24

mk_south_london

sfe for that.
Can u turn wii connect 24 off? Would that be a good idea?

Ender

I have noticed about a 10C difference in temp between standby on and off. i have a problem with graphic artifacts, and i noticed that with the standby connection off it reduces these problems by half. as of now, i am going to leave it off until nintendo tells the wii to leave the fan on during standby. i should get my new wii tomorow though
