computer & internet

Post by baerzaa »

Can you use a LAN adapter for the wii while using the computer internet at the same time? I have a nintendo wii LAN adapter and i use it to go online to play, but i was wondering: can u go on wi-fi while using the computer internet; since the ethernet cable was included, the ethernet cable for my router is unplugged from the computer hard drive for the adapter.

This is probably a spam post but whatever...

Anyhow, yes you can use the internet on your wii/computer/pc/whatever you want at the same time. If you've taken the cat5/6 cable out from your PC and plugged it into your wii, obviously your not going to be able to use the internet on your PC (unless you have a wireless card which I am doubting based on the nature of this question)

Your router will generally have 4 lan ports on it, which can all be used at the same time for an internet connection. If you need more connections look into buying a lan switch, or use wifi (if you have a wifi router)
