Tutorial - Make Your Nintendo Wifi USB Connector A SoftAP

lol. your PM was the same as your post.
the problem could be with your computers IP and your NWUSBC

 

Hi,

I have asdl and when i reset the modem always get a new ip address.
Also what is NWUSBC?

Cheers Shane

 

what is asdl.
do you have a dynamic ip address.
Nintendo
Wifi
USB
Connector

 

No this wouldn't make any differance as the usb is only an access though your already established network connection. I'll run down everything I can think of and post later. Maybe if its all together it'll be easyer to follow.

For anyone interested on how your network and DS should be set up to run on a open network ...heres how

Under The Asus WLAN Card Setting

Click on Config on the left side.


Basic Tab:

Network Type:Infrastructure

Network Name:default

Channel : 1

Encryption Tab:

Network Authentication: Open

Data Encrption: Disabled

Soft AP Tab:

Check The Soft AP Mode

Check To Enable The ICS

Access Control Tab:

Access Control Policy: Accept

Access Control List: This is were you input your mac address of your DS found under Nintendo WFC Settings,Options,System Information there you'll find your Mac Address 00-00-00-00-00-00 eg. Just note this is were you would input additional hardware addresses as well ( PSP, Laptop Eg.). Then of coase you click add. Now you'll see that same address under the list of Mac Addresses Allowed To Be On The Network.

Now go back to the basic tab and click on advanced make sure under the 54g Mode its 802.11b only. All the other settings should not to be touched.But if you want to know here's what mine are set to.

RTS Threshold: 2347

Fragmentation Threshold: 2347

Preamble Mode: Long

Frame Bursting: Disabled

54g Mode: 802.11b only

54g Protection: Auto

Use Short Slot Time: Disabled

Important after making any adjustments to click on OK on the bottom left before closing tab.

Ok try your DS by going into nintendo WFC, then nintendo WFC Settings,Nintendo WiFi Connectin Settings. Erase all previous settings. Now pick a connection 1,2 or 3 now search for access point, after a few moments it should come up with a screen showing a default connection thats unlocked and a signal, Click OK. It will show a new Connection 2 Settings screen press OK again and it will set up your DS connection for you. After its done it should say connection successful and then go back to the Connection setup screen. Now just back out and your ready to Play. If you wanted to go into the connection setup screen again ,you'll see that the connection you choose has changed the erase settings to yellow from white meaning its saved. Now Go Have Fun !!!!

Any problems I'll try to help you figure it out.

Hi,

Im having a small problem now trying to connect with beup rein 16 version.
Im getting the error "ssl connect failed" , "Authentication Failed".
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Also beup seems to corrupt my memory card.
After loading the first time then it wont load properly again in the m3 mini sd version.
Anyone had this problem?

Cheers Shane

 

Could you give a little more detail please,
WD.

 

I'm not up on these devices but if I were you I'd Google it "beup rein 16 version" and you will find the anwsers you seek. "Google a look into the unknown"
Cheers, WD.

 

anyone know if it is possible to change the mac address of the nintendo wifi usb adapter? or if there is a way to automatically change it to your pc mac address? thanks.

 

Yes you can change it but not to your pc mac address it has to be something else, windows will do this for you. Remember if you change the address everything else hooked though this connection will be affected. Usually the last couple of numbers are ajusted one up. Here's my ? why would you want to change the mac address on the usb anyways. If your having trouble let me know with what step.

Cheers, WD

 

im in college, and in order for a comptuer to be able to connect ot the net it has to go through some tests detecting if your computer has antivirus software. a device like a router is not capable of passing the test, but if you change the routers mac address to the computers, the server things the router is the comptuer, and allows it to connect.

 

Your usb connector is using your computers access to the net and doing this in your PC and as long as your PC has access then your good to go. The mac address of the usb has no bearing on your internet connection. Its just providing your computer a wireless access point.

 

Its just providing a wireless access point though your computer.

 

Well, you guys all get so far in this, I don't get anywhere. When you plug in the nintendo usb connector thing, into ur comp. it shows it as a buffalo wireless lan adapter. I still get Nintendo Usb Connector. am I just missing something that should have been removed??

I still try to follow along with the video, but I don't get the same things to come up as you do.

Help Please..

 

If you installed the nintendo drivers you have to remove these for it to work

 

i tried doing that without asking but, everytime i plug the usb connecotr in, new hardware "Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector" pops up, intstead of buffalo driver or whatever it is in the videos.

I went in and deleted everything pertaining to Nintendo or USB or Wi-Fi that really was nintendo related and still to no avail.

can you help me delete the driver, cuz when i go into add new hardware, the computer still says it is able to install the nintendo thing because it has been recently plugged into the comp.

 

Do you have the asus drivers installed? Go back and repeat steps 2,3,4,5. This should take care of the problem, if not try to direct windows to the proper drivers location

 

Im on step 2. I haven't gotten anything so far. I'm following the video and when he plugs in the usb connector, the buffalo thing pops up. When I plug it in, Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector pops up and I'm wondering how to make it pop up with buffalo.

You said delete the nintendo driver, and I deleted everything nintendo related from my comp., but buffalo still doesn't pop up.

I can't do the steps out of order, can I?
