Do you have any other gaming consoles connected to the internet?

Are you trying to connect it wireless or with cables?

I'm trying to understand. Are you using a router?

If not, and your unplugging the ethernet to plug in the USB, did you re-boot the modem?

Also, I found a YouTube that may also help....

I dont think that you can plug your modem into the back of the WII and get it online, you need wireless, or one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Datel-Wii-Lan-A ... 663&sr=8-3

Note that the nintendo ds adapter also works for the wii !

I think it´s a better solution to the LAN adapter, the Wii is a console I likely have with me when I go to friends, so when you´re back home, you´re not arsed with all those fucking wires.
