Can somebody help me with my Wii?

[Tagen]

I'm picking up an access point and I would like to get online on my Wii. I can access the access point but the connection isn't strong enough. Any tips?

Move closer to the access point. Avoid walls if possible.

Change the channel on your router.
Here is info from Nintendo on that-

*Huh-huh-huh...He said Wii.*

Well anyway you should do the above and if you have a wireless router I would suggest positioning the router closer to the Wii and make sure if you have your Wii system in a room to keep all doors open to help with the connection. I don't know if it will work for you because I have a Linksys Wireless-G Lan connection that connects to my Wii and DS. Well all of this stuff works for me and I hope this helps you in some way shape or form. Good Luck dude.

Did Nintendo not hire a focus group that could see this joke coming? I can not understand why they ditched a great name like Revolution for the horrible name Wii. *pronounced as why*

They named it Wii because Wii isn't really a word and in every language, it's said and spelled like, "Wii"
Let's just hope they don't make a Wii 2 because in Japan it would be Wii Nii.

Sorry if the joke was flaming, spam, or offensive in some way but it still is a pretty good system. I bought it and I think its better then whats out their right now. I particularly like the Virtual Console to play classic games even though I have all those systems with the exception to TurboGrafx-16. They need to add the Master System in my opinion because it was a great system that should be showed off to a new audience, a second life I guess now that all of the competition is over and you don't have to worry about which game to buy. As for the name Wii, I read from their official site that they named it Wii because it was easy to pronounce and more universal and also because it would be more distinctive. I at first hated the name because I loved the name revolution because that's what it was, a revolutionary system to conquer the gaming world like they did in the 80's with the NES. I still liked the Revoulution more and the black console shell but I guess we just have to live with Wii

HAHA! Wii ni. Fantastic. I can't wait.

The Wii is actually pronounced like "we", not like "why" as many people seem to think.

Apparently, Japanese is the only language were this word cannot be taken out of context. :P
