does anyone know how to get internet access on the Wii? Got the wi-fi connection going but there is no browser?

IIRC you need to buy it using the shop channel.

You have to buy it???

Someone said that you get Wii points in games and stuff can you use them?

It was free up until Jul 07. Now it costs 500 wii points being about £3.50. You can get free wii points via the little scratch cards when buying "Nintendo" developed games or buy with a credit through the shop channel.

I have some cards that have Club-nintendo written on. Is that them?

Yep. Usually 250 stars each though you'll need 2000 stars for 500 wii points plus a bit of patience. Easier just to pay by credit card.

So do you need to register them on club-nintendo first? The cards have a code with Alpha characters in but the wii is only displaying numerical.
