Are you getting an error messages? Is your Wii atleast detecting wireless signal? Or is it detecting it and then you're getting error messages stating internet connection can not be established?

Explain in detail the problem you're running into and we'll be able to give you some better answers. Unforunately in your case, there could be a 100 different reasons why you can't connect, so the more we know, the more we can help.
