I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, but if you want to connect to the Internet, then you'll need either a wireless connection (router) or a wired connection (Wii LAN Adapter). If you already have an online connection, then you can download the Internet Channel through the Shop Channel.

Sorry I'm a little late in responding...

Ok our WII worked fine for about 7 months. Now when we turn it on we get the green light but no picture on the TV. We borrowed our neighbors and it works fine. Does anyone know what the $%LL is going on.

Are your cords (the one with colors), in the right slots? Lol.

thewatcher · 12-06-2007, 01:48 PM

so a few things to clarify, what does the Wii do online?Does a 10 yr old need to be online ? I have a wired router and means to wire another location is this my best option? Is there a specific LAN adapter I need? I have three adapters now I use for my Tivo's will they work?

Thanks for the help with all the questions.

My husband and I have a Wii, but he plays it more often then I do. I want to surprise him with a gun for it this christmas. What is the best gun to buy? I was looking at the Nintendo Zapper w/ Links Crossbow Training Wii.. would that work for all games that have shooting in them?

prophecy71 · 12-20-2007, 03:40 PM

I'm pretty sure many people have had this problem so someone should have the answer for this question....this is my first time updating my wii thru the internet (DSL)..i'm using a wifi usb connector and its been 3 hours and still tells me "Updating...Do not turn the power off. Please wait a moment".....how long is it supposed to take to update??? the screen is now a shaded gray....can somebody tell me anything? if i can do something to increase the speed or something? how long should i expect it to download completely? another thing, the little blue bar that tells me how much has been downloaded looks like its not even moving...but i still i see that the wii is connected on my pc....somebody help

mm85715 · 12-23-2007, 10:20 PM

I connect to the internet with my laptop through a wireless card.
Can my Wii also connect this way through my laptop via a usb connection?
If so where can I buy a usb cable as my cable I use for my printer does not look like it will connect into the Wii.
Thanks

Hi. We can`t find a way to play GameCube Games on Wii. Is it possble? or sholud we just give up? Jan och Victor.

Neo · 12-24-2007, 02:04 PM

I tried to switch on my Wii but the power light would only go red and no matter how many times I pressed it or tried to switch it on via the remote it would not power up. I used a friend's power pack and it came on OK, could not get to a store to get a replacement but I used another transformer I had with a 12v 50Hz output and tried it but no joy. Tried my friends pwer pack again and now absolutely nothing.

Any ideas, its a Christmas present for the kids so need an urgent but of help if possible.

Neo.
