Nintendo DS Wifi

I have myself a router, so it's not built into the computer as your card is, meaning that your case may be entirely different.

In any case, as long as I had power to my router, the DS would detect it. Of course it wouldn't be able to connect (as your card seems inable to) since I wasn't feeding any of my internet cables into it yet.

Maybe your card isn't fully/properly installed? Even if you follow all the directions that come with the product, this can still be the case. I have DSL, but telling my router that didn't work, I had to change all my settings to Cable and run through setup again.

If there is any way to feed your internet connection through your card, and not your PC -try that. See if you have connectivity. If you don't, then you know your problem lies there.

By the way, avoid buying the Nintendo USB unless you really just want a quick fix. I don't remember, but I think it's around 30$; I got my router for 20$ after rebate and it works perfectly (and it will work with other devices as well). You may have to do some homework though to get a good price.

How ya doing, buddy?

We can also assume he has the PCI card installed properly, since he says the DS can detect, and connect to, the network being broadcasted through it.

I'm sorry if my intentions were apparently misguided and usesless, as you so succinctly put it. We all know that any computer problem has one definite solution, don't we?

In any case, it appears Ascendancy's DS detects the wireless device, but cannot connect to it as you put down. I had the same problem at first, and decided to share what happened. As long as power is running through a wireless device, the DS detects it, internet connectivity is not needed.

Sorry for the post, I'm not trying to flame, and there are no hard feelings over here. The quoted post was directed at me, and I felt obligated to respond.

Good luck on getting your DS working; it can be a pain, but usually it's a very simple matter that one overlooks or didn't know about at first that fixes it.

How ya doing, buddy?
