wired is better unless you have an above average internet connection and/or router (i have both ;D ;D ;D).

Nintendo USB Connector.

I use one with a router for internet from my other computer.

Concerto No.20 in D minor

I had the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector in use for a while, but I found it offered limited range (couldn't reach basement and had low bars between walls).  The wireless works fine for me, but wired would definitely be the fastest but its not really necessary on most games, because I rarely experience lag.

Sirus

what do you mean wired?  ???
yes i know i sound stupid
but do you mean like a DSL or cable modem? or a wired router
if you do mean ired router where can you find those?

I use a wireless router from downstairs to upstairs, through a wall or two. It works fine, I think I get "Good" signal strength. I would recommend a wireless router, because you can use it for other computers in the house.

what kind of wireless router do you recommend?

Wired as in you connect your Wii with an Ethernet cable to your router for maximum performance.
A wireless router should work fine though.

Yes but have to buy an adapter, it plugs into USB port in the back of your Wii, the you plug an Ethernet cable to the adapter and into the modem; but personally I recommend wireless for the Wii. :D

im talking about for the ds lite

Shiny Boy

Well. Umm. Does the DS Lite have a built-in wireless switch, for Wi-Fi hotspots? If so, get a wireless router.
We all thought you were talking about a Wii.

You kind of forgot to mention that.

Nintendo WiFi USB Connector

Pros: Easy to install and set up.  Works well and won't have hicups.

Cons: Only works when the computer it is connected to is on.  Limited range.

Wireless Router

Pros:  Always on, large range.

Cons: Harder to set up.
