This may be a caused by your networks setting. How many device's do you have hooked up to your WIFI at the same time? If you have more than 4 you must have NAT on your router. If your router setting are OK try checking your router log why Wii connection was lost. If no problem is found. Try using just your Wii connected to your wifi without any other device if no problems your router is failing to service you with multiple devices. You can try also lower your router security to WEP or WPA to see if this helps.

SOURCE: Wii won't connect to Wi-Fi network.

Please note that your wii console has a lower internet signal (less bars) and you must get a little closer to connect. Or your wii must have another problem i cant solve.

SOURCE: Wii wi-fi

You need to go through the wireless setup on the Wii settings page to ensure that the security settings are coorrect. You may also need to check the placement of the Wii because if you keep it in a TV cabinet it might not be able to get the signal.

SOURCE: I am trying to hook

Reboot your wireless internet and move your Wii closer to the source of the wireless internet. Oftentimes the nintendo wireless receivers are far weaker than the wireless cards in computers or other wireless devices, so moving it closer should help. If this doesn't work, you can purchase a LAN extension for you wii and hook it up to the internet directly through a wired connection. Let me know if you need anything else.

The wii will not connect to Netflix?

Go to the Wii Shop Channel, and you should find Netflix there as a free item. "Buy" it, and then you'll have Netflix on the Wii.

Wait, is your Wii connected to a Wi-Fi (wireless network) connection in your home? That's step one:

Can u have netflix on your wii without having wifi???

You don't need Wi-fi specifically, but you do need an internet connection. If you do not have a wireless router, you will need to purchase a Nintendo Wii LAN adapter. This allows you to connect the Wii to a wired router using an Ethernet cable.
