Any Nintendo DS WiFi experts out there?
I am trying to get online with the DS and am not having a great deal of joy.
I don't have a router but do have a 802.11b Wireless Access Point that I have plugged in and have managed to get the DS to see.
I know **** all about networking and have searched and found things relating to WEP all maners of things that have flown clean over my head.
Can anyone give me an idiots guide (perhaps an idiotic idiots guide would be best) as to how to get these things to work.
I am using AC.WW and iirc a Sumvision access point.
(I will be getting a router -cheers L101- but I hate to let these thigns get the better of me
)
Cheers
Paul.

Hi Paul
Some routers, especially the old ones will not work with Nintendo WiFi

One thing, if you are on ADSL broadband (over phone line) then you will need an ADSL router. Most of the routers in the nintendo list are broadband router which are no good to you. You would need something like the Prestige 660HW
