Ok, i have a comcast router. I just brought the official nintendo wii lan adapter. I connected the ethernal cord to the lan adapter from my comcast router, but the wii wont connect.
I keep getting the error ''52021'' I looked up the error code on the nintendo website, the wii manual, searched forums, etc. None of them seemed to help fix my problem.
Note: I've heard comcast routers don't work well with connecting to the wii, but there are people who still got it to connect.
Can some1 please tell me what to do? If i need to restart my router, how do i do that?
Error Code: 52021
What to do will depend on how you are connecting your Wii console. Please use the info below that describes how you are connecting.
Connecting directly to a modem:
Connecting to a router:
1 In order to set up your Nintendo Wii internet connection, you need to have high speed internet service, such as DSL, cable, or fiber optic.
If you want to use a wired connection for your Wii, you will need to purchase the Nintendo Wii Lan Adapter and a long ethernet cable to reach your router or modem. The Wii Lan adapter is available from many sources for about $30 and the cable will cost you around $10 or more. If you want to plug in your computer and Wii at the same time, you will need a router. You do not need a router if you are planning on unplugging your computer when you use Wii over the internet. Honestly, wireless routers cost about $35 and don't require a cable, so I purchased a wireless router instead. Plus, I don't want an ugly cable running across the room.
If you still want to use the Wii Lan adapter to connect to the internet, here are the steps to connect your Wii Lan adapter to your Wii game system:
Make sure your Wii game system is turned off.
Attach the Wii Lan adapter to the USB port on the back of your console.
Connect the other end to an ethernet cable that goes to your router or modem.
Turn your console back on.
If you are using the Nintendo Wii Lan Adapter to connect to the internet, follow this step. If you are connecting to the internet via a wireless router, skip this step and go to step 3.
