I have been looking around to try and see if anyone has hacked the DS firmware to use WAP and have not seen anything. Is there anyway to use WAP on the DS. My network is all set-up with WEP and I refuse to change it too WEP for the DS.
As far as I know the DS doesn't support WPA. There are 2 takes on this. The first is "I want security!" The second is "Who carez?" My wireless router's range isn't much more than my front yard anyway and nobody will connect. The 2 suggestions I have seen are 1) if you want to run your home network using WPA for security reasons/concerns, then the thing to do is get the plug in Nintendo WI dongle which is suppossed to work only with the DS or 2) NDS —-(wireless WEP)—-> New Router —-(wired)—-> Existing Router —-> Net I don't know enough to know if the second idea (double routers) would work and would be secure, but it might. The WiFi dongle would probably be cheaper unless you just happen to have a router sitting around. HTH
