Error Code: 52000

Our experience has shown that this error message is typically caused by a basic setting in your router, such as transmission rate. Please carefully read the instructions below:

    * Check Nintendo's router info for special notes, if available, for your router.
        1. Click here to go to our Wireless Router Configuration page.
        2. Use the drop-down box on the left to select, if available, your router manufacturer.
        3. Click on your router's model number, if available.
        4. Read any "special notes" at the top of the router's page. Many issues can be solved by changing the settings found in the Special Notes. Follow the instructions and test the connection.

    * If the router is not listed on our pages, or has no suggested basic rate and transmission rate changes, log into the router, and check likely areas for the basic rate and transmission rate. (e.g., "Wireless Settings," "Advanced Wireless Settings," "Connection Rates") Change the basic rate to "1-2." Change the transmission rate to "2." (Make the change even if only one of those options is available). Test the connection.

    * Another device may be sharing the same I.P. address of the DS. Try manually assigning an IP address to your Nintendo DS.
        1. The first thing you'll need to do is find out what IP address range you should be using. To do this:
              1. Click the "Start" button in the lower left-hand corner of your computer.
              2. Click "Run."
              3. Type "cmd" into the box and press Enter.
              4. Type "IPCONFIG/ALL" and press Enter. The IP address of the PC will be displayed.
              5. The IP address you are going to assign to the Nintendo DS must be 10 digits higher than the PC's. (e.g., 192.168.1.100 becomes 192.168.1.110).
              6. Enter in the exact same values for your Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS.
        2. You will now need to manually assign this new IP address to your Nintendo DS. For step-by-step instructions on how to do this, please click here.

If you are still unable to connect, please call 1-800-255-3700 in the USA or Canada for more information.





Connecting from a non-partnered Hotspot:

    * The access point at the Hotspot may not be experiencing problems. Ask the staff on site if their Wi-Fi network is up and running.

    * If the Hotspot's access point has a built-in firewall or other security that interferes with the necessary transmissions from the Nintendo DS, then the access point will not be compatible with the Nintendo DS.

    * Try another Hotspot. To search for known Hotspots in your area, click here.

Hello people,

Gave a call to Dlink toll-free number yesterday regarding issues with my DWA 140 adapter which keep dropping the reception signal. I was advised to uncheck the auto channel and select either channel 1 or 11. Did just that and magically my beloved Wii was connected without any hitch.

Surf the net for a couple of minutes but when I tried to connect to FIFA 08 EA server, halfway it got disconnected.

Will investigate further.
