sigh.

Well, as most of you know, I've been anticipating getting my new Wii and updating my gaming library just a little.
But people fuck up (not me...not this time) and now I gotta wait until October to get my system and games.
After contacting Comcast (whom I hate so much), I soon learned that their default modem does not support wi-fi. However they can install a router that has wi-fi for 99 bucks.
Bull.
So, after making this discovery and turning down such a great low price offer (sarcasm), I hit the net and started doing some research on Wii accessories, accessories that can allow me online gaming, without wi-fi.
After lots of research, I came accross two solutions to my problem.
A Nintendo USB Wi-Fi Connector.
And a Nintendo LAN Cable.
The USB Connector (which is the one I perfer) is fairly easy and more useful. You install the program, (which Nintendo recently gave a new one for Vista users, because it originally only worked on XP) plug in the USB, looks like a flash drive, and set it up on your Wii and allow the connection to pass through. It allows wireless internet capabilities between the computer and your Wii.
Thats where the pros end.
The bad sides to this starts with its rare sales. You can barely find this product anywhere in retail stores. Nintendo stopped selling them until further notice, and the only store that have these is KMart and they say that it's out of stock. After seeing some reviews on this product, people also say that this device over-heats very fast, after a couple hours, and BAM! sudden disconnect. It comes with a cord to make it closer to your Wii, but its too short to be useful.
phew...
The LAN Cable simply connects to the Wii and a spare Ethernet Port to get started, "in most cases, you cannot connect it directly to the computer." so they say, it's worth the chance. The LAN Cable is much more available, you can find it pretty much anywhere that sells a Wii, it is said to have a much more trustworthy connection, it's cheaper than the USB Connector, no installation required, pretty much worth your time if you don't have Wi-fi.
The bad part, is that it's wired (which is bad for me, because the computer is downstairs and my room is upstairs, normally, I approve of corded connections, but this is an exception), and the modem I use does not have a spare Ethernet port.
This puts me in a really tight place, but I'll see if I can buy both, push comes to shove, I'll have to buy a router after all.
