Forums - Nintendo - The Wii U gamepad's remote play range?

I can´t even go to the bathroom either.

Also, my PSP and Vita also fail if I go to another room.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

The standard 2.4ghz I guess 11B/G/N Mixed and it's set to auto select the channel. (Forcing it to use channel 1 or 11 didn't help) I used a bridged Linksys router before but it wasn't much of a boost. With the linksys router I kept getting 30sec to 60sec internet outages all the time while my laptop kept claiming it was getting 5 bars. My ISP didn't support the extra router and said to unbridge the modem since there was probably some conflict between the two. So now I'm back to just the cable wifi modem supplied by Rogers, Hitron tech CGN2-ROG. I have no idea how to change the stock firmware or if my isp overlords would even allow that :/


I won't go into the details but I'll direct you this way:

Check if your router is compatible and have at it. ISPs can't do jack shit about it.

Ah, I see. Thanks.
Was asking for a friend who just got a Wii U and wanted to play at his workplace. =p

To correct this, the Vita's connection must be wifi, but it can connect to for example a phone that is connected on 3G.  Bandwidth is not an issue.

If the Vita connects to a phone's 3G hotspot, can it remote play through that?


I guess since its using that device's dara network to get a WiFi signal so in theory it should be able to do Remote Play.
