Tutorial - Make Your Nintendo Wifi USB Connector A SoftAP

rabble rabble. You've go no idea as to how long I've been trying to get this to work. Yes, I'm following the directions. No, my issue cannot be solved by being told to go back and read it again.

I have used this guide probably a year or more ago, and it worked like a charm, but I had to uninstall everything at some point due to randomly getting a bsod at times when using the wifi adapter. Now I'm back to try it again, under different circumstances... and I'm getting nothing but problems, like I said before. I've been able to resolve most of it, but I've hit a wall now.

It is not able to set up internet connection sharing. I'm sure of this. I've let it sit for well over an hour, even though taking more than 5 minutes would be unacceptable.

I'm sorry if I come across as an ass, but I'm extremely frustrated at this point. and it doesn't help that every time the ICS fails it completely rapes my network settings and makes me do a system restore to fix everything.

 

I say don't use that garbage ASUS Wireless LAN card utility, just get this Buffalo Wireless-G Keychain USB 2.0 Client Manager Utility.

Its tons easier to use that than the ASUS software.

 

Okay, I have everything set up and it's working fantastically, but whenever I try to play a game onine with my Wii, specifically Brawl, it doesn't let me connect to other people or vice versa. My question is, is there a way to port forward using the modified wifi connector? I've looked everywhere, but I haven't found anything.

 

I can't understand the 2nd part
Inside the Drivers folder of the RAR file, you will find modified Buffalo drivers. Install these drivers for the USB Connector. Then install the ASUS software (also in RAR file(eng_2371.zip)). When it prompts you to restart, select No. I have found that there is no need to.
where is buffalo drivers and how do i install these
drivers to the USB Connector? plz someone help me
or send me a video to dong6241@hanmail.net(not to window media)

 

Can we post this guide on other sites?

 

Please post drivers for use with this method that are Vista x64 compatible.

The NETU2G54.inf in the rar package will not work w/x64.

 

When it said to put an WEP on the manual settings... I had no idea what to do.. you didn't show how to get a WEP.

I have a modem.

 

to set up a WEP, go to encryption, change the data encryption to WEP, and either make your own WEP passcode, or click on the automatic generation, write down what it says either in key 1,2,3 or 4, and select your default key (the one you wrote down)

 

k. I got a few questions...

- the ip address and the subnet mask for the computer or the Wireless Network Connection?
- How do i get the gateway?
- How do i get the primary dns?



What should i put for...
- IP ADDRESS
- SUBNET MASK
- GATEWAY
- PRIMARY (OR/AND SECONDARY)DNS

thank you.

 

@ Zypher_X

im guessing you inputting the ip and everything into your ds?

IP address:the ip address you put into the device 192.168.0.xx
replace xx with any 2 digits.

subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

gateway: 192.168.0.1

primary DNS: 192.168.01


secondary DNS is not needed so you leave it blank

the gateway and primary DNS is the ip address of the NWCUSBAP and the ip address is the number assigned to the device


this should work, if any problems occur just post them and ill try and answer them



oh and by the way, the ip address you assign to device, the last 2 digits must be different for each one others it wont work

 

please i need help i try everything you say then i go to the ds and conect but it wont conect it say can connect to nintendo wifi i check the wifi connection an no packets are being receive help

 

try turning hide SSID off, then doing an auto scan on your ds. if it picks the signal up just change the ip address from auto to 192.168.0.xx and see if that works

 

i have done all that my ds picks up the conection and i give my ds already and a ip

 

this happened to me once, try setting it up again on the ds, so set up connection 2 or 3, do a auto-scan and put in the ip address again before it tests the connection

 

it dint work

 

hmm i have a few things left in mind
1. make sure the device is allowed to access internet if you have any firewalls blocking it.
2. enter the ds' mac address into the allow list.
3. stand really close to the access point
4. unplug the NWCUSBAP and plug it in again and try it again
5. keep on trying

im not certain how i managed to get it to work but doing something like that did make it work, good luck

 

Okay I've been getting the same "Cannot Copy Driver To System Directory" that everyone else seems to be getting. Only problem is that I'm SURE I've copied the usb.sys file to the system32 directory. I've copied it, recopied it, then re-recopied it. It's there. Still getting the error. Anyone know any way to fix this?

EDIT: After a reboot, some MORE recopying, and some threats to shoot the computer, it finally decided to work -_-

 

so will this work for a ps3 connection and a psp? i'm sure my ques was answered in the thread already but don't wanna look through 47 pages of stuff. can any 1 please answer me? thanks

yep it should work for both a ps3 and psp
