[timdouglas90]

hey,

i was wondering does any usb 2.0 - ethernet adapter work with the wii? since i cant afford to fork out for the official one (im a poor student haha) since i just got a wii (ive ordered the only other one for £2.50 from amazon, so if anyone knows if it works let us know?

cheers,

Tim

just plug it in and go to your wii settings and configure the connection.

You can get the datel lan adapter from play.com for £14.99 and it works perfect

Tim, i think you can use a mac to create a network for it, not sure never tried it but in the network panel you should find something to create a network you could try that.

I don't personally own a mac, but the logic behind that, is by making your computer act as an access point.
