so i've got my new red ndsl as a birthday surprise and ive finished off a couple of games already. but what i really want to do is get on the wifi. ive configured the ndsl wifi settings to connect to my home network...and it says it connects..but then it asks me to install a connector? ive looked around for the answer but im still not sure what this means. icon_question.gif rclxub.gif

i assume you choose the nintendo wifi usb connector setting
just set it using the normal wifi connection


Added on November 18, 2008, 2:10 amyou only need 3 simple steps
first choose an empty slot for settings
second scan for access point
third key in the password for access point, if password required

after that it will attempt to test the connection
if connection successful, means you are done
just proceed to the game and the game will do the rest

FYI, DS only supports WEP encryption if that's of any relevance to you.

Other than a compatible router with WEP encryption and Internet connection you won't need anything else.

both my router and modem are wired one...

I also tried the mario kart wifi and it works wonders...just the connection is weak like what i said.
thus got lagging and delay in the game, hehe.

btw if i using wired router how to make sure my ds connect to my wired router?
what accessory is needed?
or need to buy a wireless router for that?
thanks for answering the questions anyway ^^

---------------------------------

walk around your neighborhood with your ds and see if your signal bar gets stronger. tongue.gif

fixed my wifi connection! rclxm9.gif turns out the signal was pretty weak from that side of the room. doh.gif had to move to the other side, closer to the router. but the wifi matches arent all its cracked up to be. it takes a while before you can find someone to play with, esp on mario kart.

anyways, if anyone wants to play, my friend codes are:

Mario Kart Ds
300 815 822 000

Bomberman Land Touch
386 715 236 022
