My son has a wii and a DS he hasn't ever connected it to the internet as I do not have wifi in my house,I have a pc with a wired connection in my room upstairs but my son wants to keep playing his Wii downstairs as he has his own lounge area, so I looked on Ebay and and noted a Wii usb wifi connector which comes with a disc,now I'm assuming the signal won't carry downstairs so could anyone advise if I get a long cable and run that from pc to downstairs to close proximity to Wii and connect it to Wii usb wifi connector whether that would suffice and what would be the name of this cable that I would need,also would this wii usb connector work for the Ds too and does the Ds work from the same installation disc as the Wii?Also could you tell me if this is easy to set up or any tips,and will I still be able to use my pc at the same time
Many thanks
I think I will just wire it instead of Wifi could anyone but I dont have ethernet on my pc could I just use usb?
