wireless IS built into your Wii... so use/buy a wireless router.. it doesn't cost much more than the wireless USB adapter (when on sale or used) and will be a much better experience than the wireless USB adapter (which plugs into your PC to act like a wireless router)

linksys wireless routers are popular

You can use those cheap china made ones that can be bought from ebay for like $3.00usd. Plus most of them come with an extension cable, to get you a better signal. I have 3 wifi routers for sale.
