Will wii use the same wifi system as DS? Meaning if i pick up a wirles router thats approved on nintendos wifi site for ds, will it still enable me to connect to the internet with my wii?

ALso, what do you guys think of the D-Link DI-624 router?

even on the DS, it wasn't because Nintendo made it so only certain routers would work, they just used 812.11B, which was soon outdated. Then, any router that didn't support B didn't work. I believe that the Wii is supposed to be B and G. So, any B and/or G compatible router will work with Wii.
