You would use wi-Fi out of the box - set up via the System Settings app (channel icon has a spanner on it). Otherwise you can get a Wii USB-Ethernet adapter.
I tried that but it didn't work. The Pro controller connects on the homescreen, so I can actually move the mouse cursor around and select to start the game (pro controller at that point has one blue light on it always on), but the second I start the game all the lights on the pro controller go off. However much I try to press the power button or connect the controller, it just keeps flashing all the lights on the bottom and then turning off.
When NSMBU released, there was no pro controller support. The reason your pro controller is turning off is because the game needs to be updated. I would also recommend updating your system as well since that will add Wiimote and Pro controller support for both the eShop (I think) and definitely Miiverse. The only thing you will not be able to do without a gamepad is access system settings. Yes that does suck but, you can still play and enjoy the system without ever going into system settings.
Launch the eShop. It should trigger a system update. After that, start the game- it should trigger an update which will patch in pro controller support. Close the game out, go to the blue downloads box on your home menu, and see if the update is downloading. After that you're all good. In the meantime though you can always use a sideways Wiimote

True, he's not joining an online network. Possibly there's a system update included with newer disc releases like the Wii used to do? Really it's better to just call Nintendo and see about getting a replacement Gamepad.
