I have not been able to, but I'll try again. The router is a bit weird, and I'm not sure how to do it without the check box.
I'll try later today.

I'm assuming we're using the Zhone as the modem and the router, leaving out the Linksys router completely.
http://www.zhone.com/support/manuals/docs/63/6388-A2-GB20-00.pdf

If I'm reading the manual correctly, setup a LAN client first (pg. 3-29), under Advanced > LAN Client.

Provide the Wii's MAC address, name the connection, and designate an IP address that fits within the IP range you provide under Setup > LAN Configuration. (pg. 3-19)

The router's IP is 192.168.1.1, then the Start IP is a .2, and the end IP could be a .11, for a total of 10 computers/devices maximum (whatever the need of your network). It's better if the Wii was assigned the very last one, the .11 in our example.

After that, you can assign the DMZ to the Static IP we want under Advanced > Port Forwarding. (pg. 3-27)

Then, go into the Wii connection setup and fill in the info according to
http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/wii/en_na/getOnline/manual.jsp

but with these exceptions:
static IP: use the one you decided
DNS servers: use the router's local IP, 192.168.1.1
MTU value: use the value already in your Zhone's PPPoE configuration (pg. 3-8); my ISP didn't tell me what to use, so I chose 1500 for my router and Wii

Yes we are, just the Zhone. I'll try this now.

Toruresu · « **Reply #28 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:26:37 PM »

We seem to have different manuals. I'll use the one you linked.

HOLY **** DUDE! You fixed it!

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #29 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:27:07 PM »

NO WAY

Toruresu · « **Reply #30 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:29:05 PM »

Dude, I'm in debt with you. I'm your forum slave! SOMEONE CHANGE MY TITLE!

Toruresu · « **Reply #31 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:33:05 PM »

I can't thank you enough!

Toruresu · « **Reply #32 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:37:03 PM »

Ok, I lied.

I can't play with my friend. Error code 11688. I'll be checking the support site.

Toruresu · « **Reply #33 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:40:39 PM »

Support site says nothing useful.

KIN YA HELP MEH

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #34 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:40:47 PM »

Oops. So you got past the "first" problem, huh?

On the side, make sure your WPA security is active on the router, cuz I don't know if it could've been shut off at any time since we started tinkering with it.

Toruresu · « **Reply #35 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:45:29 PM »

Its set to "WEP" security.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #36 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:49:55 PM »

Oh, WEP is what the DS uses, but it's easy to break =|

Anyways,
Do you have WiiConnect24 active?

Toruresu · « **Reply #37 on:** May 25, 2010, 02:55:00 PM »

I believe I do. Should I deactivate it?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #38 on:** May 25, 2010, 03:13:03 PM »

On second thought, you don't have to de/activate WC24. It does not matter.

I found this and read a bunch other forum testimonies on the error:
http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/wii/en_na/errors/results.jsp?error_code=11688&system=Wii&locale=en_US&action2.x=0&action2.y=0

From what I gather, 11688 is a high-traffic server issue, and indiscriminately affects more people than the other kinds of errors. So, we did "good" to get to this point, but now it's at the mercy of the main network, which I think is getting overloaded (just imagine, many people not connecting the first time, so they learn to improve their router settings, improve their connections, and now MORE people are able to connect, and the servers still can't handle the additional load). I experienced this with both Brawl and Kart in their first months, and my specific Wii/Router settings haven't changed in 2 years (using the LAN adapter).

So here's what's left:
Set your router and the Wii's security to WPA(any), and make sure they match.
Set your router's wireless channel to 2 or 10 (because Nintendo/other companies tell everyone else to use 1 or 11, so be different and stay off those peoples' channels)
After the above, try connecting at different times of the day to see if server traffic changed in your favor, including connecting with others here besides your friend.

I have a questions before doing those. My friend doesn't have his Wii on DMZ. We can NEVER play together, we always have to find other rooms where other people are hosting, and we join, thats the only way.

Could this be it?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #40 on:** May 25, 2010, 04:03:54 PM »

From my experience, Wii users without DMZ/portforwarding make terrible hosts, and usually can't host at all.

Toruresu · « **Reply #41 on:** May 25, 2010, 04:12:46 PM »

Well, he can't join me and I can't join him. :/

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #42 on:** May 25, 2010, 04:20:16 PM »

Maybe Capcom got rid of Friend Codes to get rid of friends.

ArnoldCity · « **Reply #43 on:** August 17, 2011, 02:14:35 AM »

Cr360 · « **Reply #44 on:** August 17, 2011, 03:22:22 AM »

Jennifer · « **Reply #45 on:** October 27, 2011, 04:32:38 AM »

I'm thinking of getting myself a wi fi router, so can you give me a piece of advice?
Is it better than an ordinary one?
Btw, what do you think of free mkv player ?
