First of all, thank you for your many replies! Here's what I've done since
your last post:
- Changed my router's IP to 192.168.1.10
- Re-installed Vista (destructive)
- Installed the Hacked Wi-Fi Driver for the Nintendo USB Dongle
- Enabled Sharing on the properties of my Ethernet connection
- Set up an Unsecured Ad-Hoc Wireless Network with the Wizard
Unfortunately, though I can see it, I still can't connect to the network
with the Wii. My sister is coming over later today with her laptop and
hopefully I'll be able to gain more information from trying to connect with
it. My only guess now is that there may be a problem with the drivers
linked to from Wikipedia.
Should I ever get this working, I'll post one hell of a tutorial
