Tutorial - Make Your Nintendo Wifi USB Connector A SoftAP

has any1 tried myway on vista plz let me kno

 

I'll give it a try as this is a new page at buffalo and I wasn't aware of.

 

wd
itried fiddies wy but i wasnt able to install client manager it said something about "only execute this program under administrator guidence" any idea what that is

 

yeah myne does the same thing. you need administrator guidence...whatever that is..

 

i am trying to do it with client manager v u can install this one on vista
reply quickly

 

client manager v works on vista but am having problems my wii and ps3 cant detect it my wi detects it sometimes but when im trying the connection test it says cant find aceess point

 

ok a few months back (pg 32) I had this working. Since then I've had to reformat my comp and when I tried to do the same thing and reinstall all this, I can't get it to work simply because as soon as I share my internet connection as it says to do in one of the steps, my internet stops working....no pages load or anything. And so when I try and connect with my DS it says like 'connected to access point but not server...check to make sure you're connected to the internet". If I untick the internet sharing, my net starts working again. So if I can get past this I think I'll be able to get it all working again.

Does anyone else have this problem? Is it something to do with priority or something?

 

Can i use WPA Encryption too??

 

whats the distance from your ap 2 the wii??? i had problems wen it was far away bt im not usin it now u can get a decent router off ebat for bout £20 i got a bt home hub unlocked from there 2day its way faster and more reliable but if u want to use this then u need to minimize the distance

 

Can someone please help me.I just got my nintendo wifi adapter and found this site.I downloaded the file but i cant do any thing with it because it says i dont have the software to run it.I tries watching the video but the link wont work for me.How do i install the drivers

 

First off everyone seems to have problems with the first step which is to install the drivers for the connector. To do this you must extract the folder to the desktop for just ease of finding. Then have the connector pluged in and go to device manager and find the usb connector marked nintendo and click on it and select to install drivers for this. Now all you have to do now is point it to the driver folder you have on your decktop and windows will do the rest, and just like majic it will now show up as the buffalo wifi adaptor. Now go ahead with the rest of the process and make sure in step 5 to copy the rt2500usb.sys file from the directory it says and not from the wifi pack as its not the same file. I'll say this one more time, make sure in step 5 to copy the rt2500usb.sys file from the directory it says and not from the wifi pack as its not the same file. The rest is very easy and the whole thing really should only take 5 to 10 mins. This should help most of you out their as the first step is not that clear as to what to do. Good Luck, WD.

 

the distance is about ten feet but im probably going to get a router anyways

 

how do you set up the client manager v? every method is just to find an access point, not create one. Can someone help please.

 

where you are setting the profile go to manual setup an ad hoc mode

 

well i was able to get it to detect my AP, but it couldnt get my I.P. adress for some reason. Its also showing that my AP does not have a default gateway.

 

I've gotten to step 6 of the directions, and when I click "Apply", I get an error message saying "Cannot copy driver to system directory. Re-installing the application may fix this problem". But I've tried re-installing the ASUS utility, and I still get the same error. I'm sure someone else may have had this problem, but it would take way too long to go through 40+ pages of replies. Thanks in advance for any help.

 

did you copy the file crogram files/asus/wlan card utility/driver/winxp/ap/rt2500usb.sys to: c:windows/system32/drivers/
???

 

Yup, with overwriting the old one like the directions said.

Edit: Oops...I put it in the system32 folder, not directly into the drivers folder.

Edit 2: I'm still getting the same error message

 

hmmmm.. did u copy the asus exe's in the asus folder??
