Hello. I have XP SP3 installed just to let you all know. I am trying to get my Nintendo Wii to receive an internet signal via my Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector. Here's the thing. I have set my firewall setting to allow access from every Nintendo related thing installed on my PC, but it STILL will not let the USB connect to the Wii, to get a signal. When I turn off the firewall, the Wii will receive the signal no problem. I've never had a problem like this before. When I first installed the USB, it worked perfectly! Don't tell me to reinstall the software, tried like 10 times! Anybody know what's going on? Thx for serious answers!
It's because the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connector cannot get through the firewall even if you have allowed your computer to let it through. The connector will only work if the firewall is turned fully off. This happened to mine and it would only work when the firewall was off. But, it shouldn't be a problem to your PC if you just keep the firewall off only while you are playing on-line. When you are not playing on-line, just turn the firewall back on.
