Lan adapter not working for wii...?

Question

I bought this lan adapter http://www.meritline.com/viewcon-ve091-usb-ethernet-adapter.html but it doesn't work for the Wii... I unplugged the Wii and inserted the adapted and did the wired connection test from the menu but it did not work.

any advice?

Answer 1

you need a wii card which is about £15 cheaper on ebay

Answer 2

uuuggghhhh, i hate those spam bots messages.

Well, i think that the adapter u got doesnt work, or maybe, ur wii has been modchipped, and those things corrupt, or hack-and-destroy, the hardware. Advanced users get modchips to enhance their gmeplay with things like free cheats, free wii points, and free game downloads, but they can tear up ur wii if not used properly, so dont use them......

So, i think kts either these things:

1.LAN adapter does not even fit the wii were it is not designed for it

2.The wii u own has been equipped with a modchip

3.Ur LAN adapter may not be connected properly, a common problem;Try reversing the direction in which the PATCH CABLE goes.

4.The modem may not support the Wii, or the internet may not be on, OR the modem may be equipped with a wireless box u installed, or may not have a little hole that the PATCH CABLE fits in......
