I got a Wii for Christmas and I wanted to connect to the internet on it. I connect my laptop to the internet via USB from my BlackJack. How would I make it so my laptop and Wii connect and share the internet connection? I have Windows Vista Home Premium and a 108.11g wireless card.

Wow! You have to set up your wireless connection in your Wii settings. It will search for and find your wireless router, enter your network password and it will connect. Select no when it asks to update your Wii.
If your laptop can do wifi, you will have to set the network connection from the cell phone to allow sharing. Go to control panel, then network connections. You will also need to connect the wii to the laptop, not sure how to do it, but that network connections from the control panel is where you will need to do it.

I don't think that will work. The Wii needs a wireless access point( a.k.a. a Router.) The wireless card in a laptop is to recieve wireless signals(connect to a wireless access point.) It will not act as a router for the Wii to connect to it.
There may be a way to do what you want, but sorry I don't know what it is.
