Also, you need to know the system version of your Wii which you can find in the top right corner of the Wii’s System Settings.

And you also need to know the MAC address of your Wii which is shown in the Network Settings.

Insert the SD card in your Wii and go to the Message panel, click on the date of today or yesterday and look for the red envelope, click on the Envelope and follow the onscreen instructions to install the channel on your system.

In case you don’t see the Message option, go to the third page of the system settings and revert to factory settings.
