    Hi there!
    There are two ways to connect your Wii to the internet; you can connect to your wireless network (if you have a wireless modem set up in your house), or you can connect using a wired connection directly to your modem.
    If using a wired connection, you will need to purchase a Wii LAN adapter and connect that from your WII into your wired router.
    danam106.png

    Once you have figured out what connection type you will use (and if using a wired connection, purchased and connected your Wii LAN adapter) you will need to take the following steps:
    FOR WIRELESS CONNECTION:
    • Turn on your Wii and click on the "Wii" button on the bottom left of the screen
    • Click on "Wii Settings"
    • Click on the arrow on the right side of the screen and select "Internet"
    • Select "Connection 1 : none" (if you don't see "None" in Connection 1, click the Connection 1 button, then choose "Clear Settings")
    • Click on "Wireless Connection" and then "Search for an Access Point"
    • Select "OK" and the Wii will display all the wireless networks it finds.
    • Select the wireless network that is yours.
    • If it asks you to enter a password or key, then your wireless connection is password protected and you will need to enter the password that was setup to allow access to your network.
    • Select "OK," "Save Settings," and then "Yes."
    • Your Wii will test the connection and you should get a message saying connection was successful.
    FOR WIRED CONNECTIONS:
    • Connect your Wii to the Wii LAN adapter and connect that to your modem or broadband adapter. Please not that you will need to unplug your modem for a few minutes to reset the connection and you will also need to unplug the connection to your computer when you want to connect your Wii to the internet.
    • Turn on your Wii and select the Wii icon on the bottom left
    • Click on "Wii Settings"
    • Click the arrow on the right side of the screen and select "Internet"
    • Click "Connection Settings"
    • Click "Connection 1 : none" (if you don't see "None" in Connection 1, click the Connection 1 button, then choose "Clear Settings")
    • Click "Wired Connection"
    • Click "Ok"
    • Your Wii will now do a connection test
    • You should see a message saying the test was successful
    Hope this helps!

    Error Code: 51420 The Wii console is not able to connect to your wired router or modem.

    1. If your connection worked previously, check to see if there is a Wii System Update that you have not aquired. To get the latest Wii System Update:
      1. From the Wii's main menu, select the Wii icon along the bottom left of the screen.
      2. Select "Wii Settings".
      3. Click the left arrow to get to Wii System Settings 3
      4. Choose "Wii System Update"
      5. Choose "Yes" to connect to the internet and perform a Wii system update.
    2. Make sure that you are using the Wii LAN Adapter made by Nintendo. LAN adapters not made by Nintendo likely will not work with the Wii console.
    3. Check to make sure you are not running the Wii LAN Adapter from a USB hub (a device that connects multiple USB products through a single device), as this will likely not work. Connect the USB Connector directly to the modem or router.
    4. Ensure that the Wii LAN Adapter setup is correct, and that the Wii LAN Adapter was connected with the console turned off.
    5. Check to see if the ethernet cable you are using is not working properly, by connecting another ethernet cable from your router/modem to the Wii LAN Adapter. If the connection works using a different cable, then the problem was with the first cable.
    6. If possible, try another Wii LAN Adapter. If you are unable to try another Wii LAN Adapter, or are still receiving this error code, please call 1-800-255-3700 for assistance.

    How to set up nintendo wii internet

  • 1 In order to set up your Nintendo Wii internet connection, you need to have high speed internet service, such as DSL, cable, or fiber optic.

    If you want to use a wired connection for your Wii, you will need to purchase the Nintendo Wii Lan Adapter and a long ethernet cable to reach your router or modem. The Wii Lan adapter is available from many sources for about $30 and the cable will cost you around $10 or more. If you want to plug in your computer and Wii at the same time, you will need a router. You do not need a router if you are planning on unplugging your computer when you use Wii over the internet. Honestly, wireless routers cost about $35 and don't require a cable, so I purchased a wireless router instead. Plus, I don't want an ugly cable running across the room.

    If you still want to use the Wii Lan adapter to connect to the internet, here are the steps to connect your Wii Lan adapter to your Wii game system:

    Make sure your Wii game system is turned off.

    Attach the Wii Lan adapter to the USB port on the back of your console.

    Connect the other end to an ethernet cable that goes to your router or modem.

    Turn your console back on.

  • 2

    If you are using the Nintendo Wii Lan Adapter to connect to the internet, follow this step. If you are connecting to the internet via a wireless router, skip this step and go to step 3.

    To connect your Wii via a wired connection:

    Go to the Wii Menu.

    Click on the round Wii button on the lower left corner.

    Click Wii Settings.

    Click the right arrow to go to page 2.

    Click on the Internet button.

    Click Connection Settings.

    Click Connection 3.

    Click Wired Connection.

    Your Wii will do a connection test and hopefully everything will be all set. You are now finished.
