Hey just wondering if there are any other mac users on here. I was particularly interested in how you have set up your internet connection with your Wii

You bet! :^)

I have 2 mac's at home, both using WPA-protected wireless airport network with an airport express unit. The Airport express unit is then wired to the broadband router. My Wii (and PSP) just wirelessly connect to the airport express unit, same as the Mac's do.

Yup, got an iBook G4, MacBook 12" & a MacPro quad-core Xeon.

Got the Wii to connect to my Airport, no wuckas. Even with SSID broadcast off, MAC address ACLs, and only using 802.11g. Had to remember what the blasted WPA2 key was, pity the Wii doesn't come standard with a keyboard

or better yet, pity you can't just plug a usb keyboard into one of the ports, and use that
