Terrified I broke my internet somehow

godsoe · 12-30-2006, 07:44 AM

I was browsing away but accidently hit the power button. Now, I can't even connect to anything at all. I tried unplugging, I tried reconnecting over and over again, I even tried connecting to other(my neighbor's) routers. My USB connector is showing full bars but my wii gives me error code 52140. Can anybody help?

Try adjusting the "Channel" your wireless router broadcasts on. We highly recommend setting your wireless router to either channel 1 or 11. This can potentially increase the download speed. For information on accessing your router's settings, click here to select the brand name and model number of your router (if available).
