Get Netflix through Your Wii

I thought Sue was going to have a cow!


I was talking to Linzi on the phone about how I hooked up my TV in the living room from the Wii to my Netflix account on my computer. "So now you can get netflix on your wii wii?

Seriously.. I don't have a TV hooked up to my office room that has the internet connection. I do have a wifi broadcast going throughout the house for the iphones and my kids Iphones as they visit. I had tried to set up the samsung blue ray to capture the netflix being channeled by my wifi and had been unsuccessful. The wii wifi was very easy to configure.

• Step one: request a wii disk from netflix. No charge here. It comes with your next order.
• Step two: put the disc into the wii. the wii disc label always faces away from the body of the machine.
• Step three: The wii will need to update its firmware from the disc. This may take a couple of times. Your specific netword (wifi) will show up. select it. and type in the password for the wifi network.
• Step four: Go to the netflix site and get the magic code for Wii. Go back to your wii and use its little screen to type in the code.
• Step five: The wii will turn its self off and then on again and if it all was entered properly... the red netflixs logo will show up on your wii menu. (Provided you still have the wii CD in it)
• Step Six: The wii will go to your netflix account and give you the option to choose what you want to watch from your instant que.

This looks much more complicated that it is.. so good luck you wii fanatics.. another reason to hit the A button!
