Hi guys, I just bought this USB thingy yesterday but still until now, i can't get it to work.. at first i installed it and my DS was able to detect and connect to it.. but it can't connect to the server.. i've tried sharing my internet connection but nothing happens.. then i read at nintendowifi.com where they suggest to reinstall the whole things.. so i uninstall it but until now, i can't reinstall the whole things because it kept on showing "Internet Connection Sharing Error (6)" popup.. have anyone encountered this problem before?? any known solutions?? coz i tried anything that i found over google but it still doesn't work

my friend help me to set it up but then instead of getting error 52203, i got error 52103 pulak  then i checked at nintendowifi.com and i think i've found the reason of my problem: Does your Internet Service Provider (ISP) require you to sign in each time you wish to connect to the internet? Some popular ISPs require a login each time you wish to connect, instead of an "always on" connection. Because the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector does not have a login tool to work these types of connections, the USB Connector may be incompatible with your home network. You may want to contact your ISP, or purchase a compatible router instead of using the USB Connector. Click here for help finding a compatible router.so i can't use the wifi usb my current ISP and therefore i'm going for a refund tomorrow

Does your Internet Service Provider (ISP) require you to sign in each time you wish to connect to the internet? is asking if you're on dial up or broadband, it says you should actually connect to the internet with your computer first before trying to use it

Agree with scripted. If you have DSL, once your connection is established with your ISP THEN you connect the USB adapter.
