What is the network name for the wii?

The wii itselfdoes not have its own network name. The network name (also abbreviated SSID) is the name of the network all of your devices that use Internet are connected to. If you have to ask this question then I assume that your problem is that you don't know the name of your network or you're not receiving your router's signal. To find the network name you'll need to go to your router's settings and find the name. I suggest renaming or memorizing the network name so you know it is your own network. Call your router's company if you have any trouble or don't know where to start. In addition to the network name, you may also need a password (WEP, WPA, etc). If your network has a password, you will need both the network name and the password to connect the wii or any other wireless devices to your network. If you don't see the name of your network then you'll either have to buy a wireless router since some routers do not broadcast network signals (most cable routers and some DSL routers do broadcast). However, I recommend you do what is described in the second paragraph first, since it is most likely that you just don't know the name of your network.


What do I need to start my own wi fi network?

You will need to buy a wireless router to do a Wi-Fi network. Name the router something clever with your business and create a secure password. This is the best you can do.


How do you rename ssid?

To rename the network name (SSID) you will need to log in to your router, this is often done with a web browser (if the router did not come with its own software) using the routers address (which often starts 192.168.... ), enter the password to access the router's configuration settings and find the Network name/SSID section to enter the new name.


Where do you get the SSID for the PSP?

The SSID you use is the one for your own wireless network, you set it when you set up the wireless router. So if your network is named 'MyInternet', that's the name your router is broadcasting. That's the SSID that the PSP needs.

Where do you find the ssid number for you network?

You should log on as administrator in your router, go in the router settings one of the fields should have the name SSID (some companies do not use such name, you will have to read the manual to find the required information).


When I try to connect with WiFi on my phone they ask for SSID what is that?

SSID refers to the Service Set Identifier which is the network name being broadcast. Basically it is the 'name' you set for your network when you set up your wireless router.
