Well, go to the connection settings, erase the connection information, and setup the connection again. If that doesn't work, try the following:
1. Power off the Wii. Connect the Wii LAN adapter to the Wii, and insert a working ethernet cable into the official Nintendo Wii LAN Adapter.
2. Unplug all devices from your modem (the little box). Most modems are unable to support more than one device at a time.
3. Power cycle your modem. To do this, unplug the power from your modem and let it rest for 20 seconds. Plug the power back in. Connect the Ethernet cable from your Wii console to the Ethernet port on your modem. Try a connection test (under "Internet" in the Wii Settings, select the connection you're trying to use and select "Connection Test")
If that doesn't work, try setting up the connection using a Manual Setup. Click here for a guide on how to do so:

In the manual setup, you'll be asked for certain internet settings information. To access that information:
1)On your PC, click "Start" and then "Run."
2)Type "CMD" into the field that appears to open a new window.
3)Type "IPCONFIG/ALL" and press "Enter" to display a list of internet settings. Look for IP address, Default Gateway, Subnet Mask, and DNS information. Input these exactly as they're listed into the "Manual Setup" of the Wii console's internet connection.
If none of this has worked, or if you're having trouble with the instructions I gave you, call Nintendo's Consumer Service at 1-800-255-3700 and they should be able to help you out.
Good luck!
