Alright, I'm terrible with networking, so I need some help.
I'm running a machine with an AOL connection (not looking for beef, I know), a crappy modem from 2001 they gave us when they installed the service about 8 months ago |), and the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector.
The connector acts as an access point for the Nintendo Wii and DS, both of which I have. I'm trying to get online with the Wii, and I'm aware that there have been problems with getting online and AOL. Apparently, the solution is to get online without the software. I've gone to the point of uninstalling all AOL software on my machine, and I've yet to try it with everything gone, though I doubt it will work.
Anyway, I've noticed the connector sets up a connection at the IP of 192.168.1.1. The Wii is able to detect it, but not connect. However, I've noticed that in the past when I've tried to set my machine at that IP (with the connector uninstalled), I can't connect to the internet. Anyone see a problem there?
Please, any help would be fantastic. I've got cash on a debit card that's burning a hole in my pocket, and the Shop Channel is just sitting there... lifeless...
