Before I say anything about the shop channel let me tell you that my Wii updates fine and I can connect to the Internet channel PERFECTLY and the speed is really good.

But when I go to the shop channel, it's a giant irritating slap in the face. In the afternoons it seems to never connect for me. I'll get stupid errors that Nintendo defines as router issues and rofl I don't think so. o_o I have my router all nicely set up on channel 1 with everything else people suggest and.. e_e It's weird.

I seem to be able to connect to the shop channel with no problem in the early morning. =/ Any ideas? Reasons?

did you try to change the router channel?
my conclusion is that the shop channel is experimenting difficulties to handle the traffic.

It's like that for me too. At certain times I can connect within 3 seconds at others it won't connect at all, or take 30 minutes. I can totally understand why you're annoyed by the Shop channel.

at first half the time it would just take like 10 minustes and i would just turn it off. the other half it would work fine. now i changed it to channel 1 and it works 100% perfect. (and faster too) try setting to 11 if 1 didnt work.

it's all just traffic. The times you log in are probably popular times to log into the channel, 7 in the morning on the other hand there would definitely be less traffic.

Mine does the same exact thing, it can connect to the internet w/ no problem, channels all work fine, but the shop channel takes several attempts to get connected and sometimes i just give up. then once im connected, it will give me an error and tell me to try again. it's frustrating but I chalked it up to heavy traffic
