Connect your Wii to a MAC-filtered wireless router

Some wireless routers filter access based on MAC addresses. If this is how your router works, you'll need to know the MAC address of your Wii before you will be able to connect it to your wireless network. Here's how to find out the MAC address of your Wii.

1. From Wii menu screen, click on the Wii icon in the lower left corner of the screen.

2. Select the Wii Settings icon

3. When the Wii settings are shown, click the big right-pointing arrow to get to the next page of settings. Once you get to the next page, select the Internet button.

4. Select the Console Information button. Once this is selected, you'll see all of the information for your Wii. Included in this will be the MAC address which you can use to configure your wireless router to allow access for your Wii.
