Hello!
The usual cause of error code 51330 appears to be that the password (also known as a WPA or WEP key) entered into the Wii console is not the same as what your wireless router is set to allow.


This is how to fix it:

Make sure the password is entered into the Wii exactly as it appears in your router's settings. Security keys are case sensitive.

If this does not work, I would suggest doing a power cycle of your modem and router. This is done by following these steps:

  • Unplug both the modem and the router from the power outlet.
  • Wait a few minutes, and plug the modem back in.
  • Wait a couple of minutes for the modem to initialize, then plug in the router.
  • Try to connect the Wii, Nintendo DS, or Nintendo 3DS online and test for proper response

I am trying to connect Netflix to my Wii and I keep getting error code 51330 and 51331. I don't know what these errors are. I am trying to set up with wireless internet.

From Nintendo:
Error Code 51330, 51331, and 51332
    It appears that the wireless security pass code for your home network may have been changed or is entered incorrectly on the Wii console. Click here for more information about WEP and WPA security, including how to access the settings for your Access Point.
If your wireless network password isn't wrong, reply. Hope this helps somewhat.

I keep getting error code: 51330 when trying to connect wirelessly to the internet.

This was the information on error code 51330 on Nintendo.com


Error Code: 51330
Unable to connect to your wireless network


Likely cause: It appears that the password (also known as a WPA or WEP key) entered into the Wii console is not the same as what your wireless router is set to allow.


How to fix: Make sure the password is entered into the Wii exactly as it appears in your router's settings. Security keys are case sensitive.



Don't know how to find your router's password?

Look for a sticker on the bottom of your router. Many routers provided by Internet service providers have their default password located on a sticker on the bottom of the router.

I tri to connect internet error code 51330

Error code 51330 is trying to tell you that the Wii Wireless Adapter cannot connect to your wireless router. The most likely reason for this error is that the password you entered is not typed correctly, or that you forgot to type one in at all. Remember that security keys are always case sensitive.

I have inserted my Netflix Watch Instantly DVD into the WII and I have wireless internet service at home, the console asked me to enter the SSID number so I figured this was my wireless network password...

Hello,

The SSID(network name) is actually the name you give the router. When you are on a wireless device and look at available wireless routers in range, the name you see is the SSID. You can see the SSID in multiple ways,

Login to your router admin page by going to the router ip address(usually 192.168.1.1) and log in. After you log in, go to the wireless settings and confirm your SSID.

If you have a wireless device like a laptop, you can view all available wireless routers in range and you should see yours show up. Check what the name of it is(SSID) and use that and input it into your Wii.

For additional help, read my tech article on how to connect your Wii to the internet. Click here to read it.

Error code 51330

That's usually a problem related to wireless security. You'll want to try to make sure your computers can connect to the wireless--or see if it's working or not.

If everything is good. Make sure the password you have on your Wii to connect your console to the wifi is good.

That should work... if not, reset your wifi settings and try again!

Im trying to connect to the wireless connection and it keeps asking me for SSID NUMBER AND IT KEEPS GIVING ME ERROR 51330

The error is due to the fact that you either leave the SSID number blank or are giving it an incorrect number. I think you may be in the incorrect system setting. I don't have my Wii in front of me but I'm fairly certain that, unless you're internet is password protected, You shouldn't have to post any information. I think there may be a chance that you are attempting to connect to a network that isn't your own. Just a guess, but I'd say it may be a pretty good guess.
What I am certain about is that the SSID (which is just a fancy name for "network name") should be titled on your Wii as whatever your home network is titled. For example, if your wireless system is called linksys, then your SSID should be titled linksys. These can be case sensitive so keep that in mind.
I hope this helps!
