DS development > wifi to computer

Hi, im busy with learning a lot about wifi.

I want to write my own program , to connect on ip base with my computer.
i want to connect my ds to my wireless lan card.
I searched 2 days about how im going to write a program on my pc and for the ds to communicate with each other.

I want to learn how they are communicating.

Alot of topics i read say that the registers of wife aren't complete.

With wifeme the ds and my computer can communicate.

So there is a way that i can let them communicate?

In future i want to make a text base internet browser, but first i must learn a lot.

So where must i start to let them communicate, i cant find much of it on the forum.

I think i must make a small server program for my nintendo ds? So that i can ping from my computer?

Is there any documentation about sending packages to other ip's or something?

greets,

Chris

Wi-Fi is encrypted only if you're using a protocol that includes encryption, such as WEP, WPA, IPSEC, SSL, or SSH.

The only "encryption" used so far on the DS is the same "encryption" used on Atari 7800 games: public key digital signature.
