I need to connect my Wii to the internet can I use any wireless router that I buy?
I need to connect my Wii to the internet. I was thinking of buying a cheap ASDL router because I have TalkTalk broadband. Is there anything I should watch out for any information I need.
Thanks
P.S If I get a superb answer I will make another question and choose the best answerer of this question the best answer of that question so you get 20 points in the end.
GOOD LUCK!!!
“The Wii is designed to be compatible with most home wireless routers and security standards. While we do not have a list of specific supported routers, checking for the following features on a router can help ensure you pick one that is compatible with the Wii. Remember that you must have a highspeed Cable or DSL internet connection in order to connect your Wii online.
A) 802.11G/ 802.11B (or mixed)
Most routers currently sold offer these settings. Check the box to make sure the router supports these broadcast standards. Routers that mention 802.11N or pre-N (as well MIMO) may not be compatible with the Wii.
B) WEP and WPA/WPA2 encryption
The Wii is compatible with WEP, WPA and WPA2 encryption methods if you wish to enable wireless security on your router.”
Note: ensure that the router that you are choosing is NOT one of the following:
Belkin – F5D6231-4 vers. 1000
Belkin – F5D7230-4 vers. 4000
Linksys – WCG200 ver. 2
