Over the summer i bought a Wii U. My Universities wireless internet doesn't work with game consoles and i must connect through ethernet. I have the Wii U Lan Adapter and i have everything plugged in but i can't get the connection to work. When i had my xbox all i had to do was put the MAC address with my student internet account and then the xbox would connect. I have the MAC address for my Wii U and the Lan adapter registered to my university account. Still no connection. Does anyone have any advice about this?

Try accessing the network through the browser. Basically you try to connect to the network with a "Test Connection". Then you access the browser after the failed test. You may have to input a username and password to get online

my college changed the way the wifi works and now I can't use my 3DS on it.
they might have done something similar in your university.
