Is it possible to connect the Arduino Wi-Fi shield to the Arduino Nano? If so, what ins between the two boards need to be connected? Can I use jumper wire to connect the two?
Thanks!
I am no expert but it should be possible. From the arduino web-sight
Arduino communicates with both the Wifi shield's processor and SD card using the SPI bus (through the ICSP header). This is on digital pins 11, 12, and 13 on the Uno and pins 50, 51, and 52 on the Mega. On both boards, pin 10 is used to select the HDG104 and pin 4 for the SD card. These pins cannot be used for general I/O. On the Mega, the hardware SS pin, 53, is not used to select either the HDG104 or the SD card, but it must be kept as an output or the SPI interface won't work.
Digital pin 7 is used as a handshake pin between the WiFi shield and the Arduino, and should not be used.

The uno and nano use the same chip so it should be all the same pins. You can connect them however you want.
I saw this on the website. But I couldn't get it to work. As a test, I tried connecting every single pin on the UNO to the Wi-Fi shield but I couldn't even get that to work. I think I am fundamentally missing something. Has anyone connected a Wi-Fi shield to an UNO using jumper wires? If this can be done to an UNO I should be able to do it to a NANO.
Did you ever get this to work?
What options do we have to attach a Wi-Fi shield to the Arduino nano?
In my case I have an Arduino nano v3.1.
try the below link..i found it somewhat usefull
