#137589 Slow Internet and Freezing Netflix

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 24 November 2012 - 03:19 PM in Wii U Hardware

Found a fix to my problem on another site, in case anyone else is experiencing the same as me. This also works if you cannot connect to WiFi at all. Netflix and other apps no longer froze the system after doing this:

Ok so far heres what works, entering in everything manually.


1. Go into connection types, Hit "Manual Configuration"

2. Input your SSID

3. Input the correct security type, this is key.

4. Put your password in properly

5. For ip address "Do not auto obtain".

6. open up cmd in your computer, type in ipconfig

7. Now input that ip address but add 10 to the last number so "192.168.0.1" will be entered as "192.168.0.11"

8. Enter the rest of your info inside such as subnet mask and default gateway exactly as you see it in your ipconfig.

9. Now hit next, hit configure now for your DNS. When asked about DNS hit "Dont auto obtain".

10. For the first server put in 8.8.8.8

11. For the second server put in 8.8.4.4

12. Hit Next, when asked about a proxy hit no proxy

13. Leave mtu as the default

14. it should work, if not check the ip and that it is the internet ip + 10. Good luck


thanks it connected to the net much faster!

#128058 Lego City: Undercover

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 12 November 2012 - 06:04 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I agree why is it taking them so long to come up with a release date. Toys r us says its going to be released on the 18th. I put a preorder in on it with them just to see what happens



#120479 Lego City: Undercover

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 22 October 2012 - 04:21 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I preordered lego city undercover. It looks pretty good. I wish we would get a confirmed release date though, Game informer says it will be out on launch day gamestop says launch window and amazon doesnt have a date.

Anyone heard anything else? Im really hoping it comes out at launch but my hope for that is diminishing by the day.



#120507 Lego City: Undercover

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 22 October 2012 - 05:13 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I believe that is being offered with every preorder. Its good to see another retailer listing the release date as the 18th, however I wish Gamestop would give me a confirmed date!



#127699 Lego City: Undercover

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 11 November 2012 - 02:31 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I was in best buy today. They had lego city preorder cards with the chase mccain figure attached to them. Sounds like we are getting close. Also 12/31 could be a realistic release date due to the fact its a tuesday.



#126457 Lego City: Undercover

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 09 November 2012 - 05:29 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Well Gamestop finally put the chase mccain figure preorder bonus on the lego city page this morning. Im guessing a release is not too far away.



#129889 Lego City: Undercover

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 15 November 2012 - 09:31 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Gamestop.com Is now showing release date as 3/1/13. :( I was hoping to get my hands on this by xmas!

#120814 Nintendo TVii

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 23 October 2012 - 03:26 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Yes you can. When you have Nintendo TVii, you must have a digital dish or cable provider's DVR to record shows, movies, etc. If you have TiVo, it's optional as well.


Thank you for clarifying I was on the verge of ditching My comcast DVR for a Tivo!



#120490 Nintendo TVii

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 22 October 2012 - 04:47 PM in Wii U Games and Software

So is Nintendo Tvii going to be able to set my comcast dvr to record shows or will you have to have a tivo?

#129887 No WiiU midnight at Gamestop?! WTF?!

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 15 November 2012 - 09:28 AM in Wii U Hardware

This is an absolute mess. My GameStop is telling me that Nintendo is forbidding any launch for the console before 9AM, what is going on? I really wish corporate would just issue out a statement about what will and won't happen.


It doesnt make sense since some best buy's are doing a midnight launch. If GS puts out a statement blaming nintendo then Nintendo should issue a statement as well.



#129859 No WiiU midnight at Gamestop?! WTF?!

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 15 November 2012 - 08:58 AM in Wii U Hardware

Midnight launches are down to the MANAGER of each store. You were wasting your time going to Gamestop corporate. You should have gone to the manager of your local store, they have the power.


In America, there really is no such thing as a manager at the local level in any business. The "manager" isnt really a manager, he is a pawn in the corporate game who is micro managed from the corporate office about everything they do even if the "manager" produces positive results on the business.

Anyways dont get bent out of shape about no midnight launch, be happy you have it preordered and you are getting one on sunday. There are plenty of people who will be left out on sunday that would gladly take your preorder in a heartbeat.



#126534 Launch Day
