Wii internet

do i need to add a password to WAP to be able to connect to the internet through my wii if so how long does it take till a session is opened

error code 52230
"Likely cause: Your router or Internet Service Provider is having difficulty assigning a DNS or IP address to the Wii".

The above does give the manual fix, though for BT it's 192.168.1.**
I'd be tempted to sort the connection out first*, but if you go down the manual route, try something like 192.168.1.150
*either find the wii on the home network (via the hub manager) and delete it OR a reset of the hub may cure this as it sounds like there's an IP conflict going on - though you'll lose any saved devices and any changed settings.

  • Wii Internet Channel

    How can I download Adobe Flash Player on the Wii Internet Channel?

    Hi keeperofmyhome
    I am sorry, but you can't download anything while using the Internet Channel.  And wanting Nintendo to enable downloads in the Internet Channel will open the Wii to hacks and viruses from the internet.
    So there is no way you can upgrade the Internet Channel's Flash player yourself.  You'll have to wait for Nintendo to update the Internet Channel with a newer Flash player version (currently the Internet Channel uses Flash Lite 3.1 which is equivalent to Flash 8).
    So if you're trying to watch a video that is Flash 9 or higher, the Internet Channel won't run the video.  You'll have to use your computer for viewing it until Nintendo updates the Internet Channel with a newer Flash player.

  • Wii Internet set up?

    Whenever I try to set up my Wii internet connection via wireless connection to Airport Extreme it indicates a error code 51331. No matter what security setting I use (WPA2, WPA, WEP, etc.) it keeps giving me the error that it cannot connect to the internet.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hopefully the information at http://www.nhotspot.net/wii-error-code-51331/ will help.

  • Itunes vs. Wii internet

    I was very happily using iTunes to listen to my music via the new multiple speakers setting while using an airport express base station as the reciever by my stereo, it worked great.
    Then I got a Wii for my kids, and once I got the Wii to work on the wireless network the multiple speaker setting in iTunes disappeared.
    I can only get one or the other to work, not both at the same time, HELP!
    Thanks,
    Thetav

    I guess I was rather cryptic.
    I had itunes working on multiple speakers driving my stereo off of my airport express.
    I purchased a Nintendo Wii (video game system) that can access the internet over a wireless network. When the Wii connection is set up the itunes multiple speaker option disappears from itunes.
    Thanks,
    Rob

  • Wii internet access to Airport Extreme

    After replacing my old wireless router with the Airport Extreme, my Wii can't connect to the internet wirelessly.  I'm concerned that my settings in Airport Utility are not allowing the Wii to find it.  Without it, no Netflix, no House of Cards!!

    I think I found a solution. From reviews I have read, you can use mobileme to connect to your routers. All you have to do is put your account information in your Aiport Express/Extreme or Time Capsule and you should be able to access them from outside your network assuming that the internet you are using doesn't block the service. I'll try it out later today.

  • Can't connect to Wii

    This is all new to me. I have a Linksys WRT120N Router and I am having a problem  connecting to my Wii internet, test connection fails and I get the error code 51331 and I would also like to know how to change the channels on my router. this is so fustrating, hope that someone out there can help me.

    Hello.
    I am having a problem with my Router and Wii.  I set up the connection and it worked fine.  I shut down the Wii that evening, returned to it the next day and recieved error code 51330.  In order to get the system up and running again, I have to reinstall the Router on my computer.  Again, it works fine for that day, but I receive the error code 51330 again.  What's up??

  • Allow Internet but block other network connections ?

    I am using my Airport Extreme (b/g) only for connecting my Wii/Internet radio devices to the internet. I also have a NAS and my computers attached to the network but because the AE is set to WEP and I am worried it is too easy for someone to break in to it and get access to my shared data in the network.
    My network is:
    Netgear WNR3500L wireless router connected to:
    DSL Modem
    Netgear ReadyNAS
    Netgear Powerline Adapter
    Airport Extreme
    So can I allow internet but no other network connections through the AE ?

    My advise is..
    If you do not have at least two game consoles behind this router, turn off UPnP in the router.
    This is done in the router at Advanced -> UPnP.
    By game consoles, any two..
    #1 For example: X-box, PlayStation.
    #2 A special type of computer with no keyboard or mouse. And it is usually connected to a TV.

  • WRT150N connects to Wii but doesn't accept a Wii update.

    I've updated my WRT150N to the latest firmaware (1.51.3) and the router connects fine to my PC via hardwire. My router is also seen by other wireless devices (laptop, Archos) the Wii even detects it and the Wii internet test passes.
    But the problem I have is when I attempt to update the Wii the download will stop after a few minutes. Troubleshooting on the Nintendo site says to change to chanel 1 or 11 to improve the connection, but still it doesn't work.
    Does anybody have the same problem? Even better does anybody have a solution?!

    Try changing the wireless settings on the router such as ........
    Radio Band  40MHz
    Wide Channel  6
    Standard channel  11
    See if the WII is now upgrading ........

  • Please help with Wii

    IF anyone can provide clear instructions to help get my Nintendo Wii online, that would be great. Here's what I have:
    1. Wii
    2. Airport Extreme (UFO shape)
    3. Airport Express (helps extend network)
    4. Various Macs (see signature below)
    The Wii is on the second floor, the computers one floor below. I have the AP Express in the same room as the Wii, which helps the Wii see my network. When I go through the set up, I get the 51330 error. I have a 13-character WEP key. I read that if I started from scratch with the AP Extreme, it may work, but I have not yet tried it. I thought I would try here first.
    Thanks in advance....

    Took a while to sort out because I was not familiar with what a HEX key was...so, thought I would pass on a few more details.
    Open Airport Admin Utility
    Select your base station from your list
    Click configure (this should open up a different window)
    Click on the password icon if network pw protected
    This will open up another pop up which will give you your HEX key equiv/WEP KEY
    Enter the long key in the Wii internet settings
    Wii should connect.
    The steps above are what got me to success!

  • WiFi Issues - Stops working all of a sudden - Ipod 4 32G

    I wanted the community to be aware of an issue that hit me all of a sudden - my wifi connection on my iPod cease to stop working.
    I have a iPod Touch 4, 32G, Windows 7 w/Netgear DSL modem & Router
    Today, I was surfing the net with my iPod when all of a sudden I was disconnected.  I tried to connect to back but was having problems.  As time went by and nothing was happening, I was getting a little worried.  My Wii, internet, my wife's iPhone and my 1st &2nd Gen iPods touch's were all connected and working normally but mine was not.  I did absolutely everything possible.  I went to the user forums and surfed all over  to find a solution.  In my research, I found that I wasn't the only one that was having this same issue.  The only problem was there was no consensus on a solution.
    After resetting, deleting, downloading and just about everything else you could do with an iPod, I decided to see if it was my router.  I went into my router and set up a "guest" account and all of a sudden my iPod 4 could connect.  I then reset my router and it is now working perfectly.
    A lot of pain and trouble but the solution was just to reset the modem (in my case, I unplugged it). 
    This seems to be a strange issue with the iPod 4 as I am not the only one who has been hit with this issue.  It has not affected any of my other apple devices except my iPod 4.  There is something in how the iPod 4 and the router communicate and the easiest way is to restart your router (all other options did nothing for me)
    Hopefully this will help someone out and prevent them from going through all the pain I did. 

    Hi, this seems like a very annoying problem. Unfortunatly, the community will need some more information to help assist you with this problem. Such as:
    1) What programs? Are they resource intensive? I mean, if you are trying to run 4 video games or programs like photoshop and 3dsmax forget about it. And if you have 4 programs ALL attempting to write large amounts to the disk it will yeild a similar result. Usually large amounts of I/O are murder on PC's (by which I mean personal computers...), and of course if you don't have enough RAM its a moot point. 
    2) What are your specs? How much RAM do you have? What is the size of your virtual memory (page file)?
    3) Have you cleared the various caches mac's have? I can't direct you to any good third party programs for mac's but I am sure there is a simple cache cleaner within your system. 

  • Sharing internet connection with powerbook and nintendo wii through airport

    i have been trying to share my internet connection from my imac to my powerbook and nintendo wii. i've been unable to accomplish neither. i've opened the sharing preferences, chosen "share your connection from built in ethernet" which is how my imac is connected to the internet, and then chosen "to computers using airport". if i then set my airport options to automatic channel, encryption using 40 bit wep and set a 5 character password as it says if you "plan to share your internet connection with non-apple computers", (and then turn internet sharing on) shouldn't i be able to connect either/both my powerbook and my nintendo wii? or is it necessary to have some other piece of hardware or go through some other steps?
    thanks in advance for any help.

    I got a macbook for college and I had the same problem with connecting my Wii to the macbook's connection. But lo and behold, the internet's a wonderful place! I tried this out (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20070514152251515) and it worked! I'm not sure about the powerbook bit though, sorry. Hope it works for you too.

  • Using 3G cricket broadband to connect Wii to internet??

    I really don't know what I'm doing, can anyone offer any advice?
    I'm trying to connect our Wii to the internet using my Cricket Broadband 3G USB modem, plugged into my MacBook. I've tried to create a network with internet on, and it won't work. Will not find the connection, even though the signal is full. The Wii can see my computer's network, but will not connect.
    Is there something I'm missing, or doing wrong, or does anyone have any other way of doing this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Angelique

    To gain Internet access for the MacBook Pro, you will either need your own Internet service provided by an ISP or access to another Wi-Fi network that has Internet service.
    Your MBP has a built-in wireless adapter, called an AirPort Extreme Card. This adapter is able to connect to just about any Wi-Fi network available today.
    If you opt to get your own Internet service, most ISPs will provide you as a minimum an Internet modem. Some also offer a wireless version of this device. For those that do not, you will also need an Internet router (wired or combination wired/wireless) in order for your MBP's wireless to connect.

  • Connecting Wii to Internet

    Hello all,
    I have been trying to connect my Wii to the internet. However, I am at college and getting it connected wirelessly won't work. I bought a Rocketfish LAN adaptor but that still didn't work. I have been reading about people connecting the Wii to there computer with an Adaptor to get internet!? Will this work in my case? Or is there an adaptor I can get to hook into my wii and then in a ethernet outlet in my room?  Is there any ideas you can give me to help me connect my Wii to my schools internet?
    Thanks! 

    the wii has built-in wireless capabilities as I'm sure you are aware so there is no need for an ethernet cable. From the home page on your wii go to settings, network settings, choose network type (wireless) then it will scan for networks and chose the one your dorm is connected to. Then test the connection. It may run through the settings for the network in which case just go with the defaults. If this still doesn't work, it's probably because your campus has safety features for their internet that are preventing you from using the internet on the wii in which case you will need to contact your resnet team and they will be able to figure it out.

  • Plz help!  My Wii made me lose my internet!

    So I basically epic failed at trying to connect my Nintendo Wii to my airport. What happened was I opened Airport Utility and attempted to add the "MAC Address" from my Wii to the airport Utility. This is the first time I've really used Airport Utility and know generally nothing technical about the airport. All I know is that I've had working internet from the Airport Express for almost two years. So I added the MAC address (it is the only address there, if that makes a difference) and it was SUCCESSFUL! Then it said it need to restart the airport for it to work, and it was also successful. This is where the problem began. I closed Airport Utility and although my Mac can SEE my Verizon Network, it cannot see the Airport. I tried opening Airport Utility and scanning for the Airport and it can't find it AT ALL! I tried unplugging the Airport and plugging it back it...Nothing. And every time click on my internet service it has this crazy password saved that is about 20 or more characters, which doesn't work and neither does my original password. WHAT IN THE WORLD DID I DO? Can I fix it, even if my Mac can't find the airport? Or am I better off buying another airport?

    Cooleke, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Do a hard reset of the AirPort Express (AX). It will then return to factory settings.
    There is NO need to add the MAC address of the Wii to your AX. Once you did that and since it was the only one listed you told the AX to allow ONLY the Wii to connect wirelessly.
