Forums - Nintendo - Can't connect to virtual console for secret santa! HELP!

Every time I try to do the connection settings, I get error code 52030, "Unable to connect to internet please visit these forums blah blah blah"

Anyway, when I do get connected to the internet, my friend code/messaging stuff, my internet channel, and my news channel all work. But when I try to go to the wii shop channel, I get another error code. My wiiconcect24 is activated/on, so I have no clue what the problem is. 

Has anyone else gotten the same problem? If anyone could help that would be amazing because I need to gift my game for the secret santa event!!!

Error Code: 52030
This error code usually indicates a problem relating to wireless security. Please try the following troubleshooting:

Are you using WEP or WPA security on your router?
Log into the router using the default IP (consult your router's manual for assistance)
Locate the "wireless security" section of your router settings and find the WEP or WPA key.
If you are using 64-bit encryption, the WEP Key must be a 10-character key consisting of numbers or letters A through F.
If you are using 128-bit encryption, the WEP Key must be a 26-character key consisting of numbers or letters A through F.
The WEP Key must be a Hexadecimal (0-9, A-F, no other special characters or letters).
If your router has multiple slots for a WEP Key, make sure the active key is the one in the #1 slot.
If you are using WPA, the Wii console is compatible with the following types:
WPA - PSK (TKIP)
WPA - PSK (AES)
WPA2 - PSK (AES)
If your WEP or WPA key is correct, then the problem might be related to MAC address filtering:
From the router settings, locate the "MAC address filter" settings (also known as "access control", "access list", or "network filter" depending on your router model).
If the Mac address filter is set to "enabled", then you must add the Wii's MAC address to the "allowed" list. You can locate the Wii's MAC address from the "console information" page (located under "Internet" in the Wii Settings).
If the Mac address filter was disabled, then continue troubleshooting.
If your connection was working previously, try power cycling your router and modem by unplugging them both from the wall. Wait a few minutes, and plug the modem back in. Wait a couple of minutes for the modem to initialize, then turn on the router. Try to connect the Wii console online and test for proper response. (Some routers may lose their connection to the Wii console while it is in Standby or turned off for a period of time. Check with your router manufacturer's website for the latest firmware, as there may be an update that will help prevent this issue from occurring in the future.)

Try adjusting the "Channel" your wireless router broadcasts on. We highly recommend setting your wireless router to either channel 1 or 11. This can potentially increase the download speed. For information on accessing your router's settings, click here to select the brand name and model number of your router (if available).

Try a "Manual Setup" with the Wii console (how to), using your network's IP configuration settings. To access these settings:

On your PC, click "Start" and then "Run."
Type "CMD" into the field that appears to open a new window.
Type "IPCONFIG/ALL" and press "Enter" to display a list of internet settings. Locate the settings asked for by the Wii console during the Manual Setup process and enter them.

Just to be sure, have you tried this

My Shop Channel was extremely slow until I changed to channel 11.

let me ask you a question.

does the system let you do anything with wiiconnect24 having to do with other people? like sending them messages, sending them stuff in games, ect? if people send you stuff, does it get through?

also, do you get wiiconnect24 messages from nintendo itself? (like uddate notices,mkw tournaments, stuff that that)

i had a problem last year where the latter worked but the former did not.



come try out the computer game i've been working on for my high school senior project, titled sling ball. http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=76669&page=1

you can view a few screenshots from the game in my photo album here; http://www.vgchartz.com/photos/album.php?album=2312

hmm I think it depends on the Router you have. I had a 2Wire router and was very easy. Then I got a Thompson and it needed Password. It depends on your Router I think.

If you know how to enter to your Router Settings there should be an option to modify the Channel.

Have you updated your firmware to the latest one?
