It's impossible to connect to the internet. You can buy the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector, if possible.

Question

What do I do if my WiFi access is not listed?

Community Answer

Your router may be too far away, to fix this issue move your Wii and router closer together. There may also be a chance your router doesn't have wireless capabilities. In order to fix this you must get a Nintendo USB WiFi adapter or get a new router.

Question

What's wrong with my Nintendo Wii if I can't play online games?

Community Answer

Nintendo discontinued most online play on May 20, 2014. There are hacks though that do not require any modifications to your Wii console, but I do not recommend it since it could still mess up your console. Searches on YouTube could help, but most are outdated since the Wii Shop closed in January of 2019.
