How the hell do you connect a DSi to the internet??

[belledechocchipcookie]

Poor ds has been trying for 12 months. We've been into every free WiFi cafe here and alas, nothing. It's supposed to have a free browser but nothing works. The instructions on the site don't work, where are we supposed to find a WAN code (or whatever it is) when we're in a cafe??

Please help, he'll be over the moon if he can get it to work.

Thank you Bloody thing!

Well, only 1 out of our 4 connects to the net, so I'm as clueless as you.

He wants a bloomin pokemon thing that he needs to download. Has until Friday

Ok I shall ask my experts tomorrow for you belle.

Please don't hold your breathe on the chaoslets coming through though - keep bumping till a real expert can help your mini-cookie achieve his heart's desire.

Thank you We've followed the instructions on the nintendo web site, he's had online help from them also but it's not worked. He now has a phone number for them in GERMANY! which he won't be calling

Bloody thing!

Have a look here and see if that helps. Do you have wifi at home? You will need to know what your network name is (the SSID) and what type of security it has - the likely answers are (1) none (2) WEP or (3) WPA. If you have a computer connected to the wifi then looking at the network settings on that might help. If you have WEP or WPA then there will be some sort of password to connect to the wifi.

A lot of people now have their internet box (router/modem etc) provided by the company who provides the internet connection. If you do, then the security code is usually on the back or bottom of it.

Good luck!

We have wifi but I don't think I it's set up properly. I think there's an incorrect setting in the ds

Well we can try to help! Why do you think the wifi is not set up properly? I'm guessing you have not used it with a computer then?

What setting on the DSi do you think is wrong?

The nice man from Belkin has helped me to set the wifi up again and now the ds works!!

It was the wifi at home that was the problem, all fixed now.

Thank you.

Yay!

Phew! Well done belle!
