Have a look at the Wifi settings. Thats shit, may as well get a standerd USB wifi adapter so you can connect other devices to it as well. Oh well, suppose it doesn't really matter i'm sure not many people are stuck using these weird methods these days. I do remember trying to convince my Dad back in to get a wirless router and wireless card for my laptop.
I finally remember him caving in and my parents got me a router and a PCI wifi card for my birthday geekiest birthday present ever? His main concern was that I wouldn't be able to set up, but I showed him!
These days though it's such a piece of piss to set up routers with the install CD. I learned a lot about routers in the process though now though, and everyone is at my mercy as I can shut of the router remotely muhahahah.
Yeah, that seems to be a problem too. She's concerned about having to set it up. I mean, come on? You plug those cables in, put in the install CD and you're practically done. I had no clue wtf I was doing when I set up mine 2 years ago too but I had no problems at all.
If all else fails, you still have the damn manual with step-by-step instructions. I managed to talk her out of that just now by saying how easy it is and quoting some reports from people who had no clue whatsoever and made it. Too bad that the setup they have at her home is some freaking mess that I can't even imagine. They have their modem on a wall or something with like all cables going into that modem and the PC that's next to that isn't her's and her mum says no because she thinks that it affects the other PCs negatively and all kind of weird stuff.
Yeah, she didn't even know what WLAN was before that so go figure. I really have no idea how I'm going to do this. She said that she might get one once she gets an online game for the 3DS which is ridiculous. Online is like one of the main features of the 3DS and she's totally isolating herself from that part of the console by not wanting to upgrade, if you can even call it that.
This just sucks Since you know much more than me in that area. If you are so concerned with playing with your friend online then why don't you buy them a new router as a gift and set it for them?

I would if I could but she lives in Germany and I live in Austria, so it's a pretty stupid situation. If I could just stop by her house with a router and set it up for her, this whole topic probably wouldn't exist in the first place.
I think a usb wifi adapter should work, somthing to do with internet conection sharing pretty sure it possible and should be easier to do with windows 7. I havn't done it through a windows system before but i'll try it out tommorow using my ma's laptop and see of i can share a wired connection through the wifi card in it.

Thanks a lot. She said she would buy one right away as they're really cheap and, at least for her, easier to use. I actually didn't really know that those USB WiFi adapters are commonly used too to get your wireless connection going. What it's about a seven hour drive is it? Not THAT long!
Birdo Is A Tranny said: What it's about a seven hour drive is it? Yeah, that could be about it. It's pretty long and I have to get back too, soo I don't think I could even fit that in somewhere right now. Talking her through on the phone would work if I could see their whole setup which seems to be very complicated.
A USB Wifi adapter should do just as well anyways and is cheaper than a router too, so yeah. I would have thought that the Nintendo USB connector was just a USB wifi adapter with an added function for making it easier to connect your Nintendo stuff, and that it could be detected by other Non-Nintendo devices just as fine If it is, then of course it'd work with the 3DS, like wi-fi enabled device. If it's not then it can't be guaranteed. Trust me, it's NOT! It's worse to make it work in Windows 7 than it was on XP because they named stuff differently and security was tightened so there's more stuff to set up to get it to work.
I tried like two weeks ago. It's not impossible to do, but the different tutorials I found on the web weren't very helpful. If you have some dedicated software with you USB wifi adapter to set it up, then it's OK, but if you're forced to do it through the windows 7 menus, it's a pain in the arse compared to Windows XP.
For a long time, it told me it was running fine, and the Internet connection was shared correctly, but the DS always failed connection tests. To post in the forums please login or sign up to join the Cubed3 community!
