If you're having difficulty connecting to the internet, especially the Wii Shop channel, take you're Modem/Gateway and stick it right next to the console. I was having the exact same problem because it kept timing out downloading the User Agreements. So I did exactly that.

I don't have any trouble. Last night I couldn't get on but it said it was because they were doing maintenance on the channel and I was able to get back on 20 minutes later. It didn't give me an error code though, just under maintenance.
