Nintendo DS sometimes doesn't support WPA/WPA2 security, that why your DS can't connect to your wifi. So Just disable the security on your wireless network or set the security to WEP ( the lowest encryption ).

Where do i go to get a wifi conection

To conect to wifi, you'd need to buy a WI-FI USB connecter. They can be found at most video game stores for $37.00 (varies on location) They get plugged into your USB port on your computer, then they enable you to connect to wifi . If you have a Laptop the USB port should be found on the side.

If you just need more information off of what I've given you, read the bottom of my post for a recommended website for Wi-Fi.

When you get a USB connecter:

On your DS:
Once you have it plugged in, turn on your DS with a game that is compatible with Wi-Fi. In the game there should be a place where it allows you to adjust your Wi-Fi settings.
When you select that, two options should appear, tap on the one that is labled "Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Settings" You'll see four options to chose from, you want to tap on the one near the bottom of the screen, it's shown as "Connect To Your Wi-Fi USB Connecter." The next screen will say for you to install your Wi-Fi connecter software to your computer

On your computer:(you must have internet connection on the computer)
Close your DS for now and turn your attention to your computer, insert the USB into the the USB port on your computer. The picture that is next to the port will look like this:

Install the software first, then a window will appear after the installation. Ignore it for now, and look back to your DS.

On your DS:
It should still be on the same screen you left it on unless your battery is dead (not recommended to conect to wi-fi with low power )
Tap "Ok" on your DS, It'll then launch a test connection. Look back at your computer screen now.

On your computer:
The box I told you to leave alone before will still be on, and now it should have your DS name inside it. Your DS name is what you entered your name as on your DS configuration settings.
Click on your DS name and select the option allow access. You can either allow or deny anyone access to connect on wi-fi through your USB.

On your DS:
Now that you have allowed access to your self on the computer, you can get back to your game and tap on "connect to Wi-Fi" this time instead of tapping "test connection." You'll then get a friend code that will allow you to interact with others who have connected with the same game.

Notes: For more about getting started,connected, and swapping friend codes, view this site: http://www.nintendowifi.com/global/AboutWIFI_DS.jsp
Also, if you've ever heard of a Wi-Fi hotspot, that just means you have to take your own computer or laptop with Your own Wi-Fi USB connecter to the certain area for free Internet service. This only means public areas, like at Starbucks or Panera Bread Compay, but then if you're doing this at a friends house then you just need to get your self registered access on their USB.

My son has a nintendo ds. he wants to know if he can connect it to the internet using our desktop computer

hi name is rui.

if you have a nintendo ds im sorry to say it cant connect to the internet unless you have a special attachment that lets you connect to the net by a wi-fi its called nintendo wi-fi USB adaptor this willhelp you connect to the net. By the way does your son have nintendo DS/DS lite or nintendo DSi cause their are different ways to connect it to the net DSi can connect to the net easily and it doesn't need an adaptor.

How do i install wi-fi on my ds lite? and is there wi-fi in Nigeria(lagos)

you need wireless internet, if you have wireless internet and it is still not working, there are generaly these reasons:
- a wep key, you can get it from your wireless router.
-there is other electrical interferience with another electrical object and the ds.
-your internet connection security is too high for the ds, if so lower it by going to control settings and lowering the security there, if u dont want to lower security get a nintendo wifi usb which lets you make a wireless acsess point for the ds without having to lower security on the computer after that you need to follow the instruction on the screen.
If you dont have wireless internet you have to buy a wireless router, or go with the wifi usb first hand even without the wireless internet and about wi-fi in Nigeria(Logos) i realy dont know if it is but you can test if you have all the equipment and it's easy just search.

I just bought a Nintendo DS I and I want to know how to use the internet?

Let's get you connected!
A broadband Internet connection and wireless router are required. Follow the steps below to get connected.

  1. With an online-capable game inserted into your Nintendo DS, turn on your system and access the game's main menu.
  2. Access the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection settings. (These settings are typically found by selecting "Nintendo WFC" from the game's main menu. For detailed directions, consult the manual for the game.)
  3. At the Setup screen, tap "Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Settings."
  4. Tap "Connection 1 None."
  5. Click on "Search for an Access Point."
  6. The Nintendo DS will search for any wireless networks within range. Once it is finished searching, it will display the names of all the wireless networks it finds.Look for your wireless network.
    Tap on your network name to select it.
    Select "OK," "Save Settings," and then "Yes." The Nintendo DS will run a connection test with your wireless router.
