Test a laptop in the same area, if it also doesn't get a signal, unplug your router, wait 5 seconds and plug it back in, then try to connect again.

Get a new router or move your Wii.

Put the Wii right next to the router and if it dose not work then get a new one.

Get and extension USB cable (not too expensive), and get the WiFi Max as far from your computer and monitor as you can (preferably in the direction of the Wii), that should help if you are just on the border of signal.

Hm, I get 1 bar of signal strength and it seems that my Wii internet is moving very fast.

Very possible. Signal strength really doesn't make much difference with transmission speed, but once you're out of range, speed hits 0.
