Re: nintendo wii
Do you have a router, or are you trying to connect the Wii via the adaptor direct to the modem, at the same time that the computer is connected direct to the modem? Only one device can be connected direct to the modem at a time. To change the connected device, disconnect the one you are removing, and connect the new one then the modem must be powered off for a few seconds, then restarted.

If you are still having problems you need to explain to us exactly what make and model of things you have got, i.e. what is this adaptor?, what is your exact wiring layout i.e. modem via ethernet cable to computer,
