    Hey. i'm having trouble connecting my ds to the internet through the usb connector. It connects up fine to the adaptor bt when it tests the connection to nintendo wi-fi(or whatever you call it) it comes up with the error code 52103. I've the latest drivers and my firewalls have been changed to allow it through. Any ideas? Thanks!

    I don't have a Wii I only have a DSL and the USB wi-fi adaptor. I can't connect it through my wireless router because of security settings. It's on WPA and it's too much of a pain to change to WEP cause I can't get the computers to connect to it when it's WEP. The USB wi-fi connector was the only solution. Thanks anyway.

    Do you need to change it to wep to use with the ds? Was the usb adapter working properly before? What Router/Isp do you have?

    Yes the ds only works with wep. it was it connected up when i tested it last week but i couldn't play it since as I had tests all last week. I'm on eircom and i have the netopia 2247-nwg router. i'm looking on www.nintendowifi.co.uk now but it doesn't seem to be helping.

    got it fixed!!:D:D:D:D it only took a couple of hours and me thinking I broke the thing:rolleyes:. Now i bet your thinking if he was going to fix it himself why did he bother us with it:p. anyway just in case anyone else has this problem i'll tell ya what i did.

    After you intsall it you have to enable network sharing for the ds to be allowed through. go into network connections and where the nintendo connector shows up right click it and go into properties. go to the IPv4 and IPv6 on each allow automatic assignment of IP addresses and DNS and then you can :D like I am.(for the moment:()
