Toon_Link	1. Posted: Tue 16th Jun 2009 21:18 BST I'm thinking about getting one, to connect my Wii to the Internet, but I need to know if you need a computer to do it. Thanks, in advance!

Admin theblackdragon	2. Posted: Tue 16th Jun 2009 22:53 BST ultimately you would just need a router with an available port, but you would want a computer also hooked up to the router just in case you need to configure the thing, y'know?

Cheezy	3. Posted: Sun 21st Jun 2009 02:48 BST Dark Link, I don't think it's worth it. Like theblackdragon said, you would need a router, but if you already have one, or need one, then what's the point of getting the adapter?

Toon_Link	5. Posted: Sun 21st Jun 2009 03:34 BST @Cheezy I don't have a router, all I have is this little black modem from a phone service called Embarq and I think it might work with the LAN adapter. All I needed to know was if I needed a computer to use it.

LzQuacker	9. Posted: Sat 8th Aug 2009 00:53 BST I have a LAN adaptor. All you need is an ethernet cable hooked up to a modem (whether DSL or broadband) just like you would a computer. I thought it was worth it considering the Wii's wireless is not the greatest Edited on Sat 8th August, 2009 @ 00:54 by LzQuacker
