Depends on the type of connection you have at home. If you have a wireless connection, the Wii will automatically find it. If you have a non-wireless router, you can connect to the Wii to the router using a Wii lan converter that connects to the USB port of the Wii. If you connect your computer directly to the cable modem, then you can buy a Wii wireless device that slides into your computer's USB port and communicates with the Wii wirelessly.

It isn't that hard. Buy a connecter cable or router to connect to the computer. I have a router but my mom won't let me hook it up to the wii, so i don't. The wii is still cool without the internet. just walk 2 steps over to the real computer instead.

All i did was took my computer which was hooked up to dsl went out and boutght a Linksys wireless router set it up to my computer. then you go to your Wii and go to internet settintgs select wireless and make sure you have your router hooked up. after that the wii will take over and you may have to wait cause it will download all of the updates you missed

you first either get a wii adapter or a wireless router and then you download the trial version of the Internet from the shop channel

Actually, you just need to have a broadband connection in your house and a port to plug it into. In other words, you don't actually plug it into your computer, you plug it into an open port. I have a cable modem and there is an ethernet cable that runs from the cable modem to my computer, but, there are extra slots on the cable modem where I can plug in other ethernet cables; i.e. the Wii cable will go from the Wii to the cable modem.

you don't have to hook it up to a computer, it has built in wireless internet. so if you have access to wireless you should be fine just follow the instructions.
