There is a slight compatibility problem with my DS and my dad's Wi-Fi.
So, my dad has Wi-Fi. And I use it for my netbook when I go to his place. But whenever I try to connect my DS, it only stays on for like 30 seconds. then signal dies. :o

I tried to stay in different places of the house, yet it doesn't work.

Oh, and it needs no password. It's security-free.

So, is there anything I could do ?

*- Apparently, my brother's DSi XL works just fine, so it's my DS...

Sounds like your dad's wireless network is using WPA for security. The DS and DSLite do not support WPA, and no DS games support WPA.

That's it, it has no security. Like no password for connecting. ):

Oh. Weak/broken antenna inside your DS could be the problem. Other than that, I'm not sure. Does it kick back an error code when it kicks you off?

Hi I'm having an issue trading via wifi :c I just got a new computer, but I still have the same router. The new computer has a new anti spyware though. So I'm not exactly sure what it needs to allow my ds to successfully make a trade x_x I keep getting an error and it asks me to reconnect.

Update, I think this might be because of the new computer tower having a completely different system and company. But that doesn't make sense because it's the same router and internet service. :s

Yep, but right now I'm not at his place, so I can't provide the error code. And it's not a broken antenna, my DS works just fine on any other Wi-Fi.

I just got SoulSilver (I know :/) and I tried to get into the Wi-fi plaza, yet 'Error Code: 42003' kept coming up. My internet connection works just fine, and other games on my DS connect to the internet and are able to be played perfectly. What is the problem here?

Much appreciated.

Hi I have a Nintendo Wifi USB Connector and when I first got it it was working fine. Then about a year later it stopped working so I uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it. But during installation it says Internet Sharing Error (5) or something like that. The little light on the connector still flashes as well. It may be that my computer is really bad but is there a way to fix it and can the connector work on Windows 7. If I can't do anything I'll just wait for the 3DS as I heard that Pokemon B/W and 3DS games support WPA internet.

go to the device manager and look for your wireless lan connection, and set it to :active:
