Setting up Wifi on Nintendo DS
Trying to setup an access point for my DS, its asking for SSID (which is my network name, if I understand correctly?), my WEP Key (which I found and inputted), and when I go to test the connection it fails. DId I do something wrong?
Regular DS, DSi, or 3DS?
Regular DS can only support the old Wifi types, like Shared-WEP. Check what type your wireless router is. (I'm betting WPA2, I had this problem with my old DS) DS Lite, and how do I find that out?
I have my router pulled up in my broswer atm. Usually you just access the router w/ your browser and it'll have the option under Wireless information somewhere.
Also, when I was hooking up my DSlite to McD's Wifi a few months ago (so i could get a Pokemon Wifi event for my JP Black game) it also did the same thing. I'm 99% sure it's the encryption. I had to change our router from WPA to WEP so my son could connect his DS.
I have a Wireless Security Tab, and it shows 4 different keys (assuming all are WEP keys), and it says Default Tranmit Key : 1, does that mean the first key is the one I use? If so, it doesn't work when I try to test the connection on the DS :/
So yeah I just set up internet connection for my DS, not too troubling, had to change settings to WEP as I'm pretty sure is probably the issue you're having.
i typically remove all security until i know i can get some communication then work backwards from there.

Theres 4 yeah, have only tried the first one so far. Will try the other 3 when I get home from work :/ Heh, maybe my work has an access point xD |
