    the wii is wi-fi - i.e it connects as long as itis in reasonable proximity to a modem with a wirelass capability - which most netopias are (some of themolder ones arent however) what is the modeel number of your modem and i will try to talk you through set up

    you may have to adjust a setting on your modem - the same thing that had to be done with the modem when getting the xbox360 online - this works for eircom and their netopia modems - cant tell you about others

    try this:

    click on the following addy http://192.168.1.254/

    on the left hand side click on expert mode and go into this - it will give extra options here

    click on configure (on left hand side) - three options will come up - the first is connection - click on this

    at the bottom of the screne will be a detail upnp - universal plug and play with a green tick beside it - click on the the tick to deselect it - i.e. TURN THIS OPTION OFF

    save changes - at very bottom of screen

    You tried USB?
    I did the other option and it connected with no problems.
    Just asked for the WEP and then I was away.
    The Wii has an internal card so why use USB?
