My Nintendo Wii suddenly stopped being able to go online last week. The problem persisted for a few days with the Wii getting a System Error code 52030 or 52130. After two frustrating days of troubleshooting and wondering if I should replace my LinkSys WRT54Gv2 wireless router, the Wii was able to connect online again one morning.
What did I learn from this experience? If nothing was changed in your router or Wii settings and they are working fine (except with each other), just leave things be. I suspect the problem is with the website that the Wii connects to for the connection testing. Once the problem with the test connection site was resolved, the Wii was able to go online again. If a similar problem occurs again in the future, I will just leave things be for a while and don’t start thinking about replacing the wireless router.
