I'm A Wii Bit Confused.

Dose this make any sence to any one? :( It's the discription of how to connect the WII on line

"Although Nintendo is focused on Wii's Wi-Fi Connection, which delivers wireless access to online games

and Web browsing, among other things, users who do not own a wireless router will be able to connect a

separately sold USB 2.0 LAN adapter to the machine, at which point they can plug in a network Ethernet

cable and gain online access."IGN WII FAQ

I'm not up on all things tech, but I thought i could read.

Basically the Wii wont have an Ethernet port on it ......so you can either connect wirelessly or buy a USB Ethernet adapter to hook up wired

thanks, couldn't they have said that.

I would presume they're talking about things like Wireless bridges, right?

I wonder if this sets them up for using anything like the Nintendo Wi-Fi dongle for such a use.

I read somewhere a while back that the Nintendo USB Wi-Fi Adapter will also work with the Revolution (as it was called back when I read it).

I wouldn't take it as fact, but unless there are some sort of speed restrictions in place on the Nintendo USB wifi adapter then I don't see why not to be honest.

I really hope Nintendo put in place some sort of system to stop people being an butt online and disconnecting if they're losing. I hate when people do that on Mario Kart and other games...

There should be some sort of disconnection stat thing in place that locks out people who do that from playing people who don't do that. Sure some people with bad connections might get the short straw about it...but they shouldnt really be playing or can't be having much fun if they're playing on a crap or unstable connection.

I hope the wii will use the nintendo wi-fi adaptor. cause I already got one one thoughs.

It would have been nice to have a wired connection since sometimes wireless fails, and I would hate that too happen in the middle of something important.

I'm glad it'll have built in wireless, last thing I need is another lan cable to hook up, it'd need another hub XD

Couldn't agree more. Wireless internet on an inexpensive system. It's like a dream.
