plug the network adapter in ur pc, try going on the network connectionson the control pannel (on ur PC), on the one that is ur internet connection (not the adapter) go on the properties then the advanced tab, then tick the box that says ''allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection.'' if this don't work, then u might not have a good enough internet connection (this happened to me when i had AOL as my ISP).

*make sure you are connected to the internet

Wired connection is proven to be better overall;)

Not for consoles, it's useless to have wired when you have the ability to use wireless.

It doesn't sound like he is, are you using AOL as your ISP? Cos that could cause problems right there in the form of it won't work. But try the advanced options in Network Connections.

If you are using AOL PM me and I can try and fix it for you.

Then your looking in the wrong places, I suggest you review your findings again. Call nintendos tech support for example;)

I have plus many other places

Wireless is the best way. Now many people think that myths are reality and that's where the problems come from

MYTH: A wireless connection isn't fast enough

REALITY: Using an average router a Wii user can get a 2.8-3.2 megabit download average, their upload will be between 750k to 1.25 megabit. Both of those numbers are far greater then will ever been needed for online gaming.

MYTH: A wireless connection has lag

REALITY: Lag is up to your ISP and has nothing to do with your router. Lag is determined on how fast your ISP gets your signal and is able to get it back to you.

MYTH: A wireless router's signal can go in and out

REALITY: Once a router is set up correctly it's as stable as a wired connection. Setting up is easy to do with many brands of routers making it a simple list of 6 steps (including taking it out of the box)

There is no need for a console to be wired in this day and age

I already see some discrepancies in your "myth/Reality" examples. Like I said, talk to a real representitive from Nintendo like I did;)
