    Good Morning..we are two senior citizens that are completely ignorant when it comes to anything tech...we have a wii, pc, and wireless internet. The grandchildren were playing wii last weekend and now we...

    Well what you need is the name of your wireless internet, the password for it[if you have one set up]. What you would do is head to the options of the Wii. In the options you need to find the button that says internet. The you must pick wireless for the internet, scan for the name of your wireless internet, and put in the password if you have it. Then it should run a test, if you did it right, it'll connect and you should have internet again.

    Cant get my wireless to connect to my wii

    Well, for start, you need to know your wireless name and the password[if you have on set up for it.] Then you need to head to the options and enter the Wii options menu. Look for the "Internet" button on one of the menus and click it. From there you should be able to create a new connection, and you would pick wireless, you would then scan wireless networks, pick the one that is yours from the ones listed, put in the password and you should be able to connect. If you still can't get it past that point, or you don't understand something, please contact me.

        (If you're not sure which is yours, or you don't see any wireless networks, click here.)

    8. Asked to enter a security key? If you are prompted to "Enter the Password or Key," then the wireless network you are trying to connect to has wireless security turned on. You will need to type in your security key or password and select "OK." secureaccess.png Don't know your router's security key? Let us help you find your router's security key. Select the brand of your router below and we'll provide you with the default information for that brand! Linksys Netgear DLink Belkin Apple 2Wire All other brands
    9. Select "OK," "Save Settings," and then "Yes."

      • The Wii console will run a connection test with your wireless network when the test is completed. You should see the following screen:
          sfapun2.gif
          As long as you see "The connection test was successful," the "Wii Support Code" does not matter and can be ignored

      • The connection test was successful - Then you're almost done! After your connection test, the Wii console will check if there is a new Wii System Update available. Once you select "Yes" and "I Accept," the Wii will begin to download any available updates. Click here to find out what's next!

      • The connection test was not successful - If the test was not successful, you will receive an error code.
        • Error Code 51330 or 52130: This means the security code you entered into the Wii is not the same one your router is set to. Look in your router's settings and try again. Please refer to step seven (7) above for more information.
        • All other error codes: Try our error code troubleshooting where we have detailed information on many common error codes. (You can ignore any "Wii Support Code" you receive on a connection test.)

    Wii Console: I cant get my wii to pick up my wireless internet ...

    try to trouble shoot the device. If after trouble shooting it still doesnt work or you need further assistance please let me know and i will be glad to assist you further. Please try the following troubleshooting: Are you using WEP or WPA security on your router? Log into the router using the default IP (consult your router's manual for assistance) Locate the "wireless security" section of your router settings and find the WEP or WPA key. If you are using 64-bit encryption, the WEP Key must be a 10-character key consisting of numbers or letters A through F. If you are using 128-bit encryption, the WEP Key must be a 26-character key consisting of numbers or letters A through F. The WEP Key must be a Hexadecimal (0-9, A-F, no other special characters or letters). If your router has multiple slots for a WEP Key, make sure the active key is the one in the #1 slot. If you are using WPA, the Wii console is compatible with the following types: WPA - PSK (TKIP) WPA - PSK (AES) WPA2 - PSK (AES)
    If your WEP or WPA key is correct, then the problem might be related to MAC address filtering: From the router settings, locate the "MAC address filter" settings (also known as "access control", "access list", or "network filter" depending on your router model). If the Mac address filter is set to "enabled", then you must add the Wii's MAC address to the "allowed" list. You can locate the Wii's MAC address from the "console information" page (located under "Internet" in the Wii Settings). If the Mac address filter was disabled, then continue troubleshooting.

    Check Nintendo's router info for special notes, if available, for your router. Click here to go to our Wireless Router lookup page. Use the drop-down box to select, if available, your router manufacturer. Click on your router's model number, if available. Read any "special notes" at the top of the router's page. Many issues can be solved by changing settings described in the "special notes."

    Try a "Manual Setup" with the Wii console (how to), using your network's IP configuration settings. To access these settings: On your PC, click "Start" and then "Run." Type "CMD" into the field that appears to open a new window. Type "IPCONFIG/ALL" and press "Enter" to display a list of internet settings. Locate the settings asked for by the Wii console during the Manual Setup process and enter them.

    Power cycle your router and modem by unplugging them both from the wall. Wait a few minutes, and plug the modem back in. Wait a couple of minutes for the modem to initialize, then turn on the router. Try to connect the Wii console online and test for proper response. if you require further assistance please let me know and i will be glad to assist you. -Midwest-tek

    The wire of the nintendo wii sensor is riped

    well that basicle means that you cant play your wii because your wii motes cant register to the wii. wii sensor bars are pretty cheap and if you dont want the hassle of wires everywhere then you can just get a wireless sensor bars that are pretty pricy but not too bad. the downside of a wireless sensor bar is that the connection isnt that great and it drains battery life life CRAZY.

    I have a F5D9230-4 and a few months ago got a WII. I've tried to get the WII set up to go wireless thru my router to their website. It accepts everything but when it tries a connect test it fails and...

    1. Turn of wireless security in the router, see if you can get the Wii to work UNSECURE.
    2. If the Wii, connects with security turned off, then enable security on the router (WPA is recommended) and a 10 digit key (I use an onld phone number from my childhood)
    3. Go back to internet settings on the Wii, select the wireless configuration you were using, click advanced, and enter the WPA key.
    4. Test connection Wii should work

    Wii Wi-fi Internet Connection

    A Wii has a macc address just like any other networked element. Do you have mac-address filtering turned on? If so, you may have forgotten to enter your Wii mac address in the list.

    Hope this fixes your problem!
