***Does NOT work with Vista*** April 24, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I was given one of these as a gift last year, and had a wonderful year playing Animal CrossingWW with friends around the world....until my husband gave me a new computer for our 18th wedding aniversary. Then my little world, with all my friends, disappeared, because it can't be set up to work with Vista and Norton. I have spoken with Nintendo, Gateway, and others about this, and everyone agrees that its a lost cause, and to switch to a wireless router.
This gadget is fantastic, so long as you are playing Win XP. If that is your OS, then go for it, and have fun! But it is not supported by Nintendo, despite their having an 'upgrade' available for Vista users, and they admit its of little help, and tell you go get a wireless router. They no longer make these, and told me they will not be supporting them much longer, because it poses some kind of security risk to users. *sigh*
it was too good to be true...
If you have Wi-Fi you don't need it... April 17, 2008 You only need this thing if you do not have wi-fi in your house. This device plugs into a PC with a wired internet connection and then the Wii talks, via wireless signal, to this thing, and in turn uses that PC's internet connection. Naturally, the PC needs to be on for it to work.

i bought this item on amazon used and it worked perfectly. where there are instructions, read them! install the program first, then plug in the usb, then turn on your wii or ds and VIOLA, internet. i bought this for my wii and it works perfectly with absolutely no problems. love it.
I'm sure it would have been great if it worked. April 8, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought Nintendo Wi-fi USB adapter in hopes of getting my Wii online. After installing the drivers that came with the adapter, the Wii was able to at least communicate with my computer, but when it tried to do anything useful, like actually connect to the internet, I got errors. After doing some research on the Nintendo website, I saw that there were several updated drivers. But each time I tried to install the latest drivers, I'd get an error. After hours of trying to uninstall the old driver and install the new driver, I finally just broke down and got a wireless router. My Wii was connected to the internet in a matter of minutes.
Horrible!! April 6, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
I brought this item over a year ago and we still can't get it to work. Nintendo has been of little help. I have disabled the firewall and removed all antivirus software but it still doesn't work. It was a waste of my $30. I'd save your money until nintendo improves on the model that they have.
