well im totally new to the DS scene, i would like my DS to run the MSN application, but im still deciding on which flash card to buy. M3DS real? or Itouch DS? and what size memory card is usually needed to store about 5 games and the msn program? do i need an external USB to connect to the comp to access WIFI from my DS?

i'm not sure what the MSN application is, but if it helps i'm running an R4 in mine with a 2GB microSD. so far so good...haven't found a single application that i couldn't make work.

Last time I checked beup didn't work anymore due to either IP changes or invalid SSL cert but I'm sure someone will fix it eventually.

Since you have a router, you should be able to do Wifi on DS fine. The router needs to support 802.11b,(802.11g should work also, since that's backwards compatible with b)
and WEP.(WEP isn't really required, but if you want the network to stay secure, it's needed.)
If your router doesn't support WEP, and is using some other security, well, you'll need a Wifi dongle. Unless opening up your router with no security is an option, and that's probably not an option.
If official DS games with Wifi work with your router, it should work fine with homebrew. But if you have a DS Lite, some homebrew may not work unless the router's channel is set to channel 11.

Depends on the router you have. It's in the WiFi settings.

Do you know how to login to your router to change settings?
