Wi-Fi and router-related help

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hey, I recently bought the Nintendo WiFi USB Adapter, but I can't get it to work. I was able to install it fine, with no trouble. However, whenever I have the Adapter's connection on, I can't connect to the internet. My Wii can connect to the Adapter, but my PC loses its ability to access the internet. If I turn the connection off, I can connect to the internet, but the Adapter is turned off, meaning my Wii can't connect to it at all. Can anyone help me or tell me what to do?

Comp Specs:
P4 CPU 3 GHz
1 GB RAM
 
There's a really weird thing that has been annoying me for a while now.

It's when I try the Wi-Fi Connection in the WFC Settings, it works perfectly.
But, when I try to log in to the GTS or the Wi-Fi in general in my Pokémon Diamond, it doesn't work, although I get three bars of signal. What is this all about?

Oh, some code that says (20100) appears under the "For help, check the..." text, but everything seems fine according to the Error Code shizzle at nintendowifi.com. So, what is this?!

If you need more info to solve this, just ask.

I believe I had a similar problem. Try turning off your Firewall during installation and while you're trying to connect. Of course, don't forget to turn it back on when you're finished.

You can check the routers IP and the Subnet Mask through the Internet address you used to install the router and its security settings (It should be displayed in the instrution booklet of the security settings for the router). Then just enter them manually to your DS and it should work. If it doesn't, then there's some device that uses some wireless communication system that is "blocking the path", such as a cordless phone. And nintendowifi.com actually helps, you just need to know where to search. =P
 
More details, please? Your computer is running, but you need to reset your router to connect? What happens when you reboot your computer? What if you disconnect your DS and try to reconnect?
 
Wi Fi issue

Does anyone use the Wi-Fi USB connector?? If so..do you have it working with Vista? Cant get mine to work.

I posted in this section because its the DS section. If im wrong for doing so. close it and ill search else were.
 
As long as you've installed the disk it should work :)
 
The problem iv been getting is after its all installed and everything and its on the last and final step, It says to Enter the WiFi USB connector again, And its already plugged in. So i replug it in, and it says "application error" and shuts down.
 
I had the EXACT same problem with my USB. I went to future shop and bought a wireless router for 39.99. I didn't have to install any disks or anything, I just had to hook it up, which was child's play lol, and it worked straight off the bat.

You should get a wireless router they do wonders for online play, no wires needed! ^^ I use Windows XP, but the router I bought is compatable with Vista (just like all the other more expensive ones they were buying).
Just buy a cheap one and it will work. It works with the wii also.
 
ok
i really dont have a clue about how to set up the wierless ness on ds

i dont know what a wep key is or how to get one i really dont know what i should be doing

Gloomy

If anyone can help me out I will be greatfull and friends forever hehe

Cheers
 
Ughhhhh

Well my Wifi USB connector has been fine ever since ive had it (since August). However The past week when ive wanted to battle/trade, it lets me get onto the place where you accept or invite battles and trades, but when either me or my battle/trade partner wants to accept/invite it just disconnects me or them. Its strange because it lets me do trades on the GTS.

Do you think i should buy another one ?

And Id appreciate if someone could shed some light onto this.
