It should work, but you may need a 'crossover' cable instead of a normal Cat 5. You can find them at Radio Shack or a good computer store.

It will definitely need a crossover cable to plug into the PC or alternatively you could go for a cheap 4 port ethernet hub and connect the PC & the Wii to that.
