Wii uses Bluetooth?

Bluetooth is a frequency hopping technology - it transmits each successive data packet at a different frequency (channel). WiFi interference is minimal and manifests itself as slightly reduced speed and slightly increased latency, if Bluetooth is highly active.

I'm not into game consoles but apparently they have something called a wiimote which is a bluetooth game controller.

Don't take my word for it. Follow the google links.

Wii interference troubleshooting is easy. Turn off the wii and take out the batteries. How hard can it be?

Re: Could my Wii interfere with my wireless router?

Probably more of an issue of proximity - where the router/pc is compared to the Wii. Our Wii is the farthest object away form the router and my wife's PC is between the Wii and router and we have no issues with the Wii.

Mitigating interference often means relocating the transmitter, the receiver, the source of interference, or a combination of the above.
