nintendo wii wireless router?

Question

if my internet connection is wired, could i still buy a wireless router to connect my nintendo wii to the internet?

Answer 1

Theoretically yes. It depends on your Internet connection. If you have a cable provider, you need a Router capable of connecting to a cablemodem. If you have DSL, get a Router with DSL modem.

Ask your Internet Provider if they can recommend a device.

Answer 2

Let me see.

Just an aclaration...a wireless router is a PC item, not a Wii product.

For example, if you buy a wireless router for your PC, make sure you own a wireless modem or a wireless card on your PC to keep the internet access on it!

I'm not sure if you meant buy a Wireless CONNECTOR for your PC in order to use it with your Wii.

In that case there are several options in the market.

I suggest you this one:

It's the original Nintendo one. Very easy to use. Just install the software, plug the USB, turn on your Wii, one click in the PC and done!!!!. You have a Wii connected to Internet without a wireless adapter.

Important advise: That USB connector is a little bit overprized. You might want to take a look around stores near your home to find the same product at a more affordable prize.

Answer 3

Of Course. All you would need to do is buy a router and hook it up to your modem. This will allow your wii to grab the wireless internet network signal after you setup your router, that is.
