Tutorial - Make Your Nintendo Wifi USB Connector A SoftAP

ok i got this working no sweat, easier than getting the wii to recognize it with the nintendo drivers, but now the wi doesn't see the ap, but the psp does.... any idea what might be happening?

 

The modified Buffalo drivers are not in the download. Do you have another way of getting these drivers?

 

you didnt have to quote that whole post.
and the modded drivers are in the download.

 

where are they hiding?

 

in the folder that says drivers.

 

Hello! I bought the Nintendo USB connection today and everything was going smooth up until step 6. When I try to click Apply the error "cannot copy driver to system directory" comes up. I dont have the Broadband connection option so i was wondering if this was the problem. Please help me!

 

Can you give me a little more detail as to the steps before?

 

Well I followed, everything that the guide and the video did. Everything was fine until i had to copy the file rt2500usb.sys into the drivers folder because i couldn't find the system32 folder. So then i searched and found it but wasn't sure if i did this step correctly. So i then continued on but got stuck where i click Apply on the ASUS software. The error message " cannot copy driver to system directory" came up. So now I'm stuck not knowing what to do next.

 

I think you should go back and make sure you do step 5 because you have to overwrite the existing file there. Now that you know where it is. Can't remember but it should ask if you want to replace the existing file.Try this and let me know

 

there is no such folder. there is, data1(zip), data1.hdr, data2(zip), engine32(zip), layout.bin, results, setup(gif), setup(exe), setup(config settings), setup(inx file), setup.ibt, setup.iss.

 

yes there is such a folder.
its the second folder from when you extract the stuff.

 

This is were you get your drivers, unzip these and you will find the magic...
To do this you need to have this rar file:

or you can get it from here:

Here's the way you have to set it up

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 course 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.

forgive me, but i just am not seeing a drivers folder.

 

I see now you have installed the nintendo software go back to step 1 and start again. uninstall the nintendo software and do a search on any remaining folders and delete then do a reboot and start again with the drivers provided in the links.

hello i being tryint to make this work but i get stuck cuz when i tried to open the control center it tells me " Unable to coonect to the wireless lan card...." i have seen this problem in some guys here but no one has posted how they fix it please i really need some help here i want to connect my wii and teh connect software is crap

 

Go into card settings, then config and you should see your connections under available connections in the bottom box. Just click on your available internet connection and drag it to the box over the ics and then check the ics. Before closing this box make sure you click OK. Hope this helps and then just follow the private mail I sent....Good Luck

well now i cant even open the card settings.. this is really strange.. the error i get is "Unable to connect to the wireless card. the tray icon will be loaded once the card is inserted" so thas why the card setting windows wont open. i ahvent recived the email

thanks!

 

Sorry for the long wait. Well I did do this and it did ask me to overwrite the previous file. I did this around three times just to make sure I did it right. I don't think this is the problem because I still get the same error message. Also I dont have the Broadband connection in the ASUS software like in the pictures and video. I dont know what to do.
