How do you connect a wii to the internet wirelessly?

[Thinny1234]

I finally got a wireless router. I got my wii when it first came out, so it doesn't have the "search for access point" feature. I need help setting it up! I tried entering the SSID, which it asks to do, then I'll try to test it and it doesn't work? Some please help me!!! :mad2::mad2::mad2::mad2::mad2:
PS: The wireless router is protected so it needs a WEP key, (I know what it is.) but will that affect the connectablity?

I got my Wii on the 19th of November 2006, and it has the access point feature...

Is it throwing an error code?
