My Connection Problem

[lax guy5]

I have a wireless connection that I play all my games with on the Wii and never have ANY problems. I have an exceptional connection, in my opinion. I never lag!! But today, playing Brawl, I kept on having to quit matches online because of too much lag. Even against people I've already played before on Wifi and had no lag with whatsoever. So what could be the problem here?

If you or a family member is downloading torrents, etc. on your computer, thats a no-brainer problem.

If not, then IDK.

do you power cycle your modem?

Lol sorry, but what's that? :embarrass

you turn off the device that connects you to the internet, including the router if you have one.

Wait 5-6 minutes. Turn them both back on and it should refresh your connection and give you another IP address

op just so you know

your connection will probably be unstable. So if you encounter lagless matches, yet disconnect from wifi. This is normal. And will resolve itself
