Wii Internet - Wireless Adapter vs. Regular USB Cable?

Question

Instead of using the Wii Wireless Adapter to connect my Wii to the internet, will it work if I simply plug in a less expensive USB cable in the Wii's USB cable slot and attach the other end to my comp?

That definitely won't work.

Why not?

That's like asking why my car won't run on orange juice.

It just doesn't work.

Answer 2

pretty sure it won't work

Edit: It definitely won't work. The Wii can't read it if you try to.
