    Netflix ??

    Ok, I'm getting movies thru the mail. My son got a Wii for Christmas last year. I know I could get them instantly now with the Wii, but there is no way to connect that to the PC, well I could, but too much work to try to run a line across the room under the carpet. My brother was tellin me I could get a router. Anybody do this?? I've never heard of this router thingy.

              If I'm not wrong here the Wii has a WiFi built into it, alls you need is a wireless router . Don't hold me to it though I know little about the Wii.

                    I picked up a cheap WiFi router at Walmart. Hooked it in between my modem and CPU. Netflix instantly.

                      We run netflix through our wii with a wireless router. Added bonus is that our laptops also have internet through the wireless router. Just make sure when you set it up you do set up the password secured network. Directions are with the router. Other wise any one can log on to your IP address and it they do something illegal the po-po will be knocking on your door first.

                        Before you mess with that you may want to look at what movies you can access by the Wii. You can only watch older movies or television shows through the streaming. None of the newer releases are available. We tried it but canceled the service and went with the mail order videos only.
