Wii causing problems with wireless?

[PleasantOne]

I'm curious if anyone else has had this issue...

I have the little Belkin wireless access point that was posted about here on CAG back when DS wifi launched... It works fine for connecting with both the Wii and DS... however, occassionally, it becomes impossible to connect (51330 error) and I have to reset the cable modem, etc. It causes problems with both the Wii and my computers... and my cousin (who has the same setup) is having the same issue.

I thought perhaps the Wii isn't continually connected, and each time it goes to connect, it decides on the IP it will use, causing problems if a local computer is using the same IP? However my cousin tried assigning a static IP to her Wii and some of her computers and it didn't help.

Also, neither of us had any problems until we hooked up our Wii's...

Anyone else have a similar issue? And anyone have any idea how it could be fixed? It's a minor annoyance, really, but an annoyance just the same.

I've had routers do that in general in the past.

I have a similar issue too. I usually can't play Wii and be connected to the Internet at the same time.

I found out that its actually the Wii Remote causing the intereference. It completely cuts my connection (usually right when I turn on the Wii Remote, sometimes 10 minutes later). Maybe its Bluetooth? I don't know. I sent an e-mail to Nintendo about it, around two days ago... no reply yet.

Its really crappy too because I use the NWFC USB Adaptor... so if my computer can't stay connected to the Internet, then the USB Adaptor is useless. And if the USB Adpator is useless, the neither my DS or my Wii can connect to the net.

when i try to update the wii it sometimes stops downloading and i have to pull out the power cable b/c it wont reset otherwise. fairly annoying since it happens at least once everytime i've updated.
