# Hmm
My intensive IT Technician training is coming in handy now.

Sounds like your router isnt allowing wireless connections. Wire your laptop to it, go into your browser and type 192.168.1.1, then fiddle with the settings in there.

# But if it wasn't allowing wireless connections
wouldn't it block the wii?

I'm only asking now, I shall do that later but if I do that then this computer goes offline and I need to make sure I know what's going on.

Thanks so much for your help, by the way.

# You could try disabling the security on the router
and seeing if it'll let you connect then.
Also, look for driver updates.
