Hey, I was wondering if someone could help answer a question that I couldn't find. What is the range of a Wii's Wi-fi?

Posted by erosomniac (Member # 6834) on :

I'm not sure. Mine picks up my network (approx. 100 feet away from router) and six other networks in my apartment building, though!

I've got a pretty small house, and the Wii's right next to the router right now, so I'm not sure what the max range is. It's supposed to be better than the range of the DS. I've found it certainly works best when in the same room as the router.

Edit: I do pick up a couple networks from neighboring houses, but I don't know how far those are away. They're secure, so I can't try them out to see how well they work... not that I would advocate hijacking anybody else's Internet access. [Razz]

It should be standard Wireless-B or -G ranges.
