    I Need Help Please

    Ok I posted this some where else with no luck in getting a reponse, so now I'll post it here in hopes of something.

    I had a nintendo wi-fi usb connector, worked fine til it burnt up,
    The 1st one is what I had


    Ok I bought another and thought it would do the same as that one, as described in the description.
    The 2nd is what I got.

    Question, why can't I get the other one to work??
    I downloaded the driver that was sent with it, but when the icons are on the task bar it tells me I'm not connected.

    It is probably like the Wifimax that has terrible driver problems, you could try searching for the latest drivers that may work for it and setting the settings required for it to work!

    I'm pretty sure the only application that a USB cable would provide is a cord to go to a USB Car Charger. the port on the back of the DS is simply a Power port, not a communications port.

    Wi Fi Problems

    I think this goes here, but any who. Think you can help? We just renewed our Internet Security-Firewall-Virus decter thing, and I haven't tried to go on wi-fi since then, but now that I want to I can't, even when I turn the firewall off like I used to when I wanted to connect it won't let me. I went into wifi settings on my DS and did a scan for my nintendo wifi usb stick and the pc just ignored me, any ideas on what I should do?

    reinstall the usb software for a start, your new firewall may not trust it. Most FWs give you the option of trusting a piece of software when you install it, so you can make it a trusted program and hopefully a working one.

    No you do not need a regular router to use Wi-Fi if you buy the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector. However it has been discontinued because the manufacture of the technology was successfully sued by CSIRO.

    My question is it possible to change the frequency that a router operates on so it dosen't confict with cordless phones without having to buy new phones. This is the main reason I don't own a wireless router.

    You should ask this in the Technology section. They'll end up with better answers than we will most of the time.

    Well is there any sort of Data encryption which requires you to type in a pin to access the network? That may be what's causing your problems.
