This review is from: Airlink ASOHOUSB USB 2.0 LAN Adapter works with Nintendo Wii + 6FT CAT5 LAN Cable (Video Game)

I got it, I took it out of the package, I plugged the usb into the Wii, and a Cat5 cable from the router to this item. I turned on the Wii, went into the setup and changed the internet connection from wireless to wired. The Wii checked the connection and found it and I was instantly able to check weather, news, virtual console etc.
The entire operation took 5 minutes. Buy this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wired USB LAN Adapter for Nintendo Wii (or PC), December 12, 2007

Easy to set up and Easier to use.

Although the product came with directions for PC and MAC, there were no installation instructions for the Nintendo Wii (the sole reason I bought it for)

As a guess, I just plugged the adapter into the USB on the back of my Nintendo Wii, plugged in the cord from my high speed internet and the activity lights immediately started showing power.

Then just go into the Wii settings (bottom left of the "Home" screen on the Nintendo). Go to "Wii settings" then scroll to the next list to the right where, near the bottom it has an "Internet" button. Click that, go to "Connections", then click one of the three open connections. Any one will work. Clear out any previous settings then click new connection. Then choose "Wired" and just wait. After the connection test it will work every time.

This is an excellent product.

Works great and costs half the price of the official Nintendo adapter! No installation (besides plugging it in) required!
