Yes, the computer does need to be turned on for the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector to work, as the computer cannot communicate with any USB devices when it is turned off. However, a wireless router, which connects directly to a modem, works even when the computer is turned off.

How do you hook up a Nintendo DSI to your computer is their a USB cable needed.?

The DSi connects to your computer wirelessly ONLY. In order to do this you will need either the Nintendo WiFi connector or a wireless router. If you just want to get on every once in a while you can go to a place with free wifi and connect there. Burger King has this and I even found a connection in my local hospital. Go to the SETTINGS menu, tap INTERNET, and then select a connection. Tap SEARCH FOR A CONNECTION and it will scan for anything in range.
