I have it for a temporary time since my appartment is too small and I don't have space to put a router but anyway the Nintendo USB Connector is very good.

There's 2 things you must first: download the lastest version of the drivers on the Nintendo website. The version is 1.0.4. and you must keep the maximum distance between your Wii and your computer at 30 feet or less.

Also, you must have Windows XP.

Well I'm running Windows XP and the PC and Wii are about 6 feet away from each other. So I should be ok.

It does what it's supposed to do, but it doesn't work with any other wireless devices besides the DS and Wii. Therefore I consider it a ripoff, since any other wireless router/USB drive works with any and all wireless devices for the same price or cheaper than Nintendo's.

Well considering I only need it for the Wii and DS I'll probably go this route.

Well, it works, but the fact that a wireless router costs as much, or even less than the USB connector makes it pretty useless to purchase this product, unless you can't have a wireless router in your house for some reason.
