Wifi connection problems. Help please? - 12-29-08

For a very, very, veerryyy long time my wifi has not been working with Nintendo products (It has been since I changed my router). Now that AC:CF is out I desperately want to connect to Wifi. I have a Netgear router (WGPS606), I went to the Nintendo Help page and looked at their compatible router list and my Netgear model wasn't on there, I went to their common trouble routers list and it wasn't on there. Nintendo was no help, I even called to see if some of the non-english speaking people being payed to help me could do their job, and as usual they couldn't. They had me change my Wii's Static IP, manually re-set-up my wifi, and several other things (the exact same things they suggest on their site that I told them didn't work). I gave up and decided I would run down to BestBuy later on today and buy a USB router thing. Nintendo WIFI usb connectors have been discontinued and I am wondering what to do to get connected. I don't know if I should buy a normal usb connector and see if it works (if so what brand???) or to try different things to get connected. Help please. =(
P.s. I am extremely technologicly impared so small words XD.

Oh, lawd. Well, I guess since your router isn't registered on their list, it won't work. You could try buying a USB Wi-Fi connector, I hear those have the best connections for Wi-Fi.

Yes, I would buy a USB or get another router.

I recommend a Lynksis(sp?) router. They sell them at Best Buy. They have good signal, are easy to set up, and best of all, inexpensive.
