Wireless Router Way – Many homes have a wireless network set up that allows any device with a receiver to access the internet. The Nintendo DS and Wii systems can use an existing wireless network to go online with a minimum amount of set-up. If you don't have a home wireless network, creating one up is as easy as buying a wireless router and connecting it to your existing DSL service. Routers can be purchased at most retail stores and electronic outlets such as Best Buy and Circuit City for around $40. CheapStingyBargains is a great place to catch sales on wireless routers, so keep an eye out for excellent deals there as well.

The Wi-Fi Connector sells for about the same price as a wireless router, $35, and supports up to 5 systems at once.
