Nintendo have stated they will be releasing an Ethernet Kit for the Wii. This will allow users to connect the Wii to a standard internet router without the need for wireless support. Good news for those of us not currently using wireless routers.
It was also confirmed that if you have the USB dongle used for DS online play, this will work as well for Wii.

Wii's World is not officially affiliated with Nintendo! (but they wish we were).

If your home net service is wifi that will work. If you have a DS dongle that will work. If you have a wired net service that will work. I think Nintendo have all the angles covered.

Well that's good news for those who own a DS isn't it.

Hey that's pretty good! I hope it's cheap though. But my study is upstairs and has no tv in it. Hopefully there's a really long extension cord for this.

That is pretty neat.

If Microsoft made an extremely long ethernet cable, then you can bet Wii will (no pun intended).

They already have long extension cords. They are called ethernet cables, you can buy them at most retailers. If you need a really long one, you will ones more likely find it at places like radio shack and best buy.

More good news, although I will just be using wifi on wireless.

So there is an ethernet port on the console now? I heard it was a usb convertor that was going to come out. USB->RJ45 converter.

I already have like 200 feet of ethernet cables available at my house, so I'm good. Plus I'm fairly sure that we're going to get a wireless router when the Wii comes out so we don't have to screw around with any more cables. We already do that too much. That sucks that Nintendo didn't make free, wireless internet that came with the Wii (as previously rumoured). That would've pwned. I guess I'll have to do with what Nintendo "gives" me. I don't really have a choice.

The USB Wifi Adapter will work with cable internet right?

What about if I don't have a router at all and just want to plug this ethernet kit into a phone port.

Does Wii internet connect to tv or computer?

Oh my god, where do you get a long cable? I need a 25ish meter long one.
