Default Compatible Routers Index For Nintendo Wii

I thought it would be a good idea to compile a list of Wii compatible and non-compatible routers. To be used as a guide for users with problems and for people considering purchasing one.

So post up your router make and model and tell us if its good or not and i'll keep this list updated.

Here's the list,

Compatible:

-Apple -Airports Extreme
-D-link DGL-4300
-D-LINK DI-524
-D-LINK DWL-922
-Billion 7404VGP
-Telewell EA-513
-Buffalo WMR-G54 Airstation Wireless ADSL Router
-Belkin F5D7231UK4 (manual setup and firmware update)
-Belkin F5D9230-4 vers. 5000
-Belkin F5D72304uk4 vers. 6000 (Is said to be incompatible but works apparently)
-Belkin F5D7230-4 1223uk, f/w version 4.05.03, boot version 1.03.12.bk
-Netopia 2247NWG-VGx (limited DS support)
-NetGear DG834G (v3)
-Netgear WGT624v3 (disable extended range, 2.0.16_1.0.1 firmware)

-Linksys WAG354G Wireless access pont (ADSL2+ modem and 4 port, wireless b/g router in one).
-Linksys WAG200G
-Orange/Wanadoo Livebox

-TP LINK TL-WR514G
-'2wire' BT branded wireless router (BT 1800HG) change frequency to '7 - 2.442MHz'
-BT home hub
-BT 2100

Incompatible:

-KINAMAX USB 2.0 - RJ45 Fast Ethernet 10/100 BaseT Network Adapter
-Belkin F5D7230-4 vers. 4000
-Belkin F5D6231-4 vers. 1000
-Belkin F5D72304uk4 vers. 6000 (Is said to be incompatible but apparently works)
-Belkin F5D7231-4 vers. 1102

Note: Incompatible routers can be subject to change due to the manufacturer updating the firmware.

Nintendo customer support
What to look for:
802.11G/ 802.11B (or mixed)
Most routers currently sold offer these settings. Check the box to make sure the router supports these broadcast standards. Routers that mention 802.11N or pre-N (as well MIMO) may not be compatible with the Wii.

WEP and WPA/WPA2 encryption
The Wii is compatible with WEP, WPA and WPA2 encryption methods if you wish to enable wireless security on your router.
There are several different WPA variations. The Wii is compatible with:

WPA - PSK (TKIP)
WPA - PSK (AES)
WPA2 - PSK (AES)
