Hmm...I guess I'm mostly writing this out of anger, disbelief, and utter sadness ;_;. A couple of days ago, my aunt bought a wireless router, and...Well...I wasn't that interested at the time >.>...Anyway, while she was doing all of that junk, I went up to my room, and tried to connect to the internet in Brawl, right? Then...I get the "051100" error. I figured, (since I'm upstairs and the computer is downstairs) that I wasn't in range, so I tried again. Another error.

I figured it was just my Wii, since it doesn't always connect to the internet when I'm playing Brawl, so I tried it on my DSi. Same error. Keep in mind this is at 10:16 PM. So I gave up, and went to bed for the night.

The next morning, I went to the computer and when I saw the USB connector, the light wasn't blinking! I recalled that it happened to me a couple of days ago, and the solution to that was to unplug it and plug it in again. But, when I did that, the light didn't come on...

So now, I've come to the conclusion that my USB connector has died on me >.<..And now, I have to find another way to connect to the internet! Perhaps...buying another one would solve it

?

Ugh. That Nintendo Wi-fi thing is a piece of crap, I tried using it and my Wii would never connect.

Sorry to break it to you but they don't make the Wifi USB connectors anymore. Ebay might have some though.

Try re-installing the WiFi-Program.

Sorry that I'm trying to be helpful.

Actually, this happened to me. All I did was unplug it for like a week, and it worked when I plugged it back in.

 

[Volt7x]

Mine never worked. <_<

 

[Ninja Kirby Nick!]

>.> But I has to talk..I lieks it.

So should I really unplug my connector for a week? Dang, that would suck . But anything to get the job done...

I guess the reason why it worked for me is that I bought the USB connector while Nintendo (Or whoever) was still making them, and kept it untouched for nearly a year (or two), and it's never done this to me before >.>...

Guys, Nintendo canceled the USB service.

Please note: The Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector has been discontinued until further notice. As an alternative for on-line access, Wii owners can use a standard wireless router, or the Wii LAN Adapter. Please click here to access the alternative on-line set-up options information on our web-site.

I don't think they can cancel the functionality of their device... just the manufacturing of new ones.

Well, I learned something today.

A blog is a thread. I think . I can't believe I didn't know that xD.

I know by now that the USB connectors are discontinued, but they should still care for the people that still have them ..

OMG this exact thing happened to me! When I came back from holiday, it stopped working in one of my computers but it still worked in the other one :\
