Anyone able to help out with this query folks?? Ok, I have my Wii and I want to hook it up online. Now I have IrishBroadband in the house aswell as BT. I don't want to use the BT connection as it is my mam's and the IBB is mine. I was getting out the crimbo deccies and I found a Wireless router (Netopia) and all the cables…

I was getting out the crimbo deccies and I found a Wireless router (Netopia) and all the cables etc and was wondering if I connected the router to IBB and my PC would I be able to use it for the DS/Wii???

Does the Netopia router actually have an ethernet input though? Isn't it just a DSL input?

You'd probably have more luck with a proper wireless router TBH

Can you tell us the version of the Netopia router ?

If its either the Netopia 3347NWG or Netopia 3347W it will work perfect.

Not sure about the rest of the versions but as far as I know, they all work 100%.
