Bastard Wii - trying to get online.

Right. No matter how hard i try, i can't get my Wii online for any longer than 5 minutes.

Bought a Wifimax dongle, all i can manage after tinkering about with some settings is getting it online for 5 minutes before it gives up and fucks off. Extremely frustrating.

Bought an official Nintendo LAN adaptor kit, hooked it up to my PC via a USB/Ethernet adaptor (with a driver that Windows Update found for me, since the one i got was shattered on arrival) and it's getting fucking nowhere. Every time i start a connection test i get 'Network Cable unplugged', and it only ever comes up as 'Limited or No Connectivity' at best.

Anyone got any ideas as to what stupid thing i'm missing out on?

Re: Bastard Wii - trying to get online.

Best thing to do is get a decent wireless router for your network.
Linksys would be the brand to go for.

I had all sorts of problems with my Netgear as fucked up by Telewest, and the Linksys solved all of that.
( Then Netgear gave me a non-fucked-with-by-Telewest router, but I never tried it... )
