Connecting a Nintendo DS to your ISP's router





Issue


When you try to connect your Nintendo DS on the internet, here are the steps that normally you will undergo:
  • You choose the option "Search for access point".
  • The choices are displayed.
  • If the access point is in the form of a closed padlock (gray color), and the "Security settings incompatible with the Ds" message is displayed, it means that your router is configured with security settings that the Nintendo DS doesn't support (WPA, WPA2, etc..).

Solution


The only solution is to configure your box to WEP because it is the only security setings that the console recognizes.
