Wii through Tomato wireless?

I replaced a Dlink router with a new WRT54GL running Tomato 1.19. I pretty much duplicated the Dlink settings in Tomato (including the WPA settings) to minimize fooling around with the clients to get them to work. The two laptops connected and worked wirelessly right away. But I'm having a problem with my son's Nintendo Wii. The Wii's connection test just won't pass. Anyone else running a Wii and can point me in the right direction?

 

My son's WII connects with no issues. My encryption settings are WPA PSK + AES.

 

I'm using WPA2-AES, G-only. No issues either.

 

I think mine is WPA PSK TKIP (does that make sense?). I picked that at the time because that was the only combination that worked with everything. I suppose I could try different settings.

 

I don't have the settings handy, but it works with no problem. (I'm running WPA+AES).

Steps:
1) Turn off all encryption on the Tomato.
2) The Wii is "b", so make sure that Tomato is set to "b/g", NOT "g" only.
3) Connect and test the Wii.
4) Update the Wii with the latest firmware.
5) Reenable the encryption.
6) Connect and test the Wii.

Hope this helps.

 

The Wii is G-enabled; I'm using G-only with the Wii without issues. Some early Wii's can only connect in B/G mixed mode. Once connected, they work at G speeds though.

 

I had to set mine to b/g to get it to connect, forgot about that, but think it works at G speeds after connecting. I haven't tested lately with a number of firmware updates if that might have gotten fixed like the ability to use a USB keyboard for many uses such as browsing the web with Opera was added at some point.

 

My Wii connected fine to my Tomato router, which is configured to use WPA/TKIP with b and g enabled.

 

Doh! I re-entered the key and now it connects fine. It's always something simple.

 

When tested this morning, our WII now does connect when my routers are configured to G-only mode. I presume this is the result of numerous WII firmware updates since last tested.
