I just figured it out! it's the router, it sucks, and it's icelandic, I searched another question like this on google, and figured out asnwers like this only came from iceland, and that means you can't do this using the awful ass "hive" router here in Iceland.. so.. I'm ****ed. I need to do this at my moms house now with a different router she has -_-

HEEEEEEELP!
oh god! this is so terrible! we guys need help with this.
now, I've tried my moms router, dads router, and even the router at my grandmother.. nothing work.. this sucks.. and sucks so bad.
I think I have an Idea, "Nintendo Wi-fi USB connector", that is a usb you plug to your pc, and that way connects your wii, that SHOULD work, since it's made by nintendo, also it says you can use that for Wii in the manual.. even if it was originally for DS.
but I just need to buy it somehow, I tried to buy it at computer stores today, but they didn't have it. so I guess I gotta buy it from ebay. somehow.. my dad needs to do it for me, or I'll have to wait in a year, and my bro turnes 18 and he gets an credit card and can buy stuff from ebay..


EDIT!:

I got it! he says "you NEED the nintendo wi-fi usb connector to go online wireless" why couldn't they just do it like it is done with the DS.. instead you need to buy some crappy usb connector to go online.. damn it.

GOD DAMN IT! son of a B!
I just bought Wi-fi Max USB, and it works on a same way as the "Nintendo Wi-fi USB connector"
and I can connsect to it, I can do the same sh** as I could do with my router, but the same error comes.
AND IT DOES NOT WORK, that's it!!! I'VE HAD ENOUGH!! I'M CALLING NINTENDO, AND I'M GONNA SAY MY WII IS A PEICE OF CRAP, AND I NEED IT TO GET FIXED!!!

whhooooaa!!
I JUST FIXED THE PROBLEM o_o
so.. the "Wiiconnect24 and Wii shop channel service is not currently being offered" error HAS A CURE.
change your country in options to "United Kingdom" and the error will be no more, and you WILL be able to agree to the shop channel..
this error was really gay, and just a waste of my time..
but I've finally got it fixed..
EDIT: and also a waste of my money! I bought "Wi-fi USB connector" when I didn't even need it, my router works fine, and works in the same way as the w-fi USB.. but it's still fine to have that USB around..

awesome.. right now I'm writing this on my internet channel in my wii.. totally awesome. and I'm playing awesome VC games.. F-Zero X, Super Mario World, Sonic 2.. only have 900 Wii points left.. damn, can't afford Zelda OoT.. so I'm gonna download Super Metroid when it comes to Europe..
anyway.. if some one finds this on google trying to fix that error.. read my last post.
I was once a victim too lol
