This also seems to work with my Belkin PCI card, apart from the Internet bit, the drivers install and work perfectly and I see that my card has sent and recieved stuff so that's good. It doesn't seem to share the internet though, the Ds can't find the connection, but it can connect to the access point. I right clicked on the LAN connection and set it to share my internet, but it told me to choose a home networking connection, it didn't have my internet there so I chose the wireless, was this right?
[EDIT] It works! That's a mistake in your guide, you're meant to right click your Internet Connection, not your Lan connection, and share it, that's how it works. It works perfectly with my card too so I think any card with a RK chipset will work

Thanks, but it seemed to work now...
And I can confirm that it works the same way with compatible pcCard wifi cards. My girlfriend has one and I tried this driver and it works!
Edit: Do you really need xp for this driver to work? I thought it worked from 9x (seeing the directories in the archive). I think 98 is enough (seeing 95 doesn't have ics)

These drivers work for both PCI and PCCARD.

I question myself why I didn't say it yesterday, but this driver works in Windows 2000. I'm using it with my gf's pccard in 2000, so you can add that os.

Right click on your broadband connection and go to the networking tab and share it through the connection labelled "Wireless Network Connnection", mine was labelled "Wireless Network Connection 2" as I had already installed my previous drivers before using these ones.

And I've tested the pcmcia card with the drivers used in the tutorial and it works perfect, so I didn't use your drivers Dudu.exe (the one you posted a couple days ago).

Okay, now I have to figure out if there are some Software AP capabilties for my built-in "Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection" card.
If anyone has info or help on that one please share.
Edit 1:
Okay found the Specs: http://www.databest.fi/2200BG.pdf
Edit 2:
Okay I figured I can configure my network card in Infrastructure Mode. Give it a SSID etc. Since I won't have Mario Kart for another 2 days I can't really test it :-/
So anyone having any experience with this kind of connection? Let's hope it will work. Don't wanna buy a stupid clumsy USB stick if I have builtin WLAN.

Hi! I have been trying to configure that card in Access point mode but I didn't find anyway to do it. The drivers support infrastructure mode but that means that they can connect to an access point, not that they can become one...
I don't know if there is some other solution out there...

Yeah, that's what I thought.
Okay that sucks. Now my last hope is my USB Wireless stick. I hope that one works. If not I have to buy a PCMCIA card or that damn Nintendo Stick?
Edit:
I think I'm a lucky guy. My USB Stick software can change it's mode to "Access Point". No I'll have to figure out if it's working nicely with Mario Kart *sigh* 36 hours left till release....
#61829 - Okibi - Thu Nov 24, 2005 2:57 am
Okay, I'm stumped.. I've been trying to get this to work with two wireless cars, one set up with the SoftAP driver to receive the DS (and the DS does recognize it) while the other one I have connected to a hotspot as the internet connection doing ICS.
I keep getting the error code 52000 and similar ones telling me that it's unable to obtain an IP address. Any ideas?
Edit: To clarify, I have a Linksys WMP54G card using the SoftAP driver for the DS to connect to, and I have a Airnet AWD154 card using the latest Marvell driver to connect to the hotspot. I looked through the other thread again and saw someone suggesting the bridge connections as opposed to ICS but when I try to bridge either card I get a "To create a Network Bridge, you must select at least two network connections that are not being used by Internet Connection Sharing or Internet Connection Firewall" error. The thing is that neither ICS or ICF is enabled on either card...

I think you have to select both cards. Select the first and press CTRL and klick on the 2nd. Then you have both selected. And you can try it again.
Hop this helps...

Awesome, thanks. That got the two connections bridged.
Now when the DS tests the connection I get a Windows System Error saying "There is an IP address conflict with a system on the network". The DS gives me code 52100 with "Connected to access point but unable to connect to the server". Hmm. So close, but still need to sort the IP out.

This reminds me of how I tried to got my girlfriends computer connected to the internet using my computer.
Eventually I gave up. I don't know. Maybe I was to lazy to get it running. Or creating a wireless connection with 2 computers is difficult.
Bottomline:
I don't really know what else you have to configure once you created that bridge...
#61838 - Okibi - Thu Nov 24, 2005 6:09 am
Yeah. Basically, it seems my problem is getting an IP address for the DS. I can connect to the AP just fine, but I get a Windows System Error about an IP conflict, so it seems it's trying to give the DS my PC's IP. Any attempt at entering the info myself has given me a 52100 error. So if anyone has an idea for assigning it an IP..
#61849 - paco1234 - Thu Nov 24, 2005 7:51 am

Assign the ip to the DS directly. Dont use dhcp at all. There is a place to do that in mario-kart...

Does Wifi with Ralink2500 cards really don't work in Linux?
AFAIK the Linux drivers don't support Master Mode and Ad-Hoc doesn't work for the DS.
Any solution? :-(

Anyone tested using a no ralink card, or know about USB adapters that support softAP mode?
I am getting MK soon, but I don't have wifi at home, and we use WPA2 at work.
Getting a router is out of question, because I'm not going to happily pay 2~3 times the money I spent on the game to get it on the internet.
The Nintendo USB dongle is also off-limits, because I'd need to buy it directly off their site. I don't think they ship to anywhere outside USA or Canada, because I was forced to use a dummy US address to even register an account there.
In case they *do* ship it over here, it would cost me a virgin princess due to the shipping and eventual hideous customs import taxes. I say "would", because I don't have any international credit cards, so there would be no way for me to pay for it. (It would be nice if they sold that thing through normal retail, that way I could get my hands on it via 3rd party importers).
So, buying a nice, cheap, small and readily avaliable USB wifi adaptor would be perfect (since I could carry it around wth me to use in the various places my nomad life takes me to). But now it seems it's impossible to use those to connect the DS... geez.

This one does the trick:

You get the CD with the Adhoc AND softAP drivers on it. And it's kinda cheap too.
NOTE: When pasting a Froogle URL or other Google URL to this or any other phpBB board, use the [url=...] syntax or strip off all query arguments except q. The Firefox search box adds extra query arguments, which serve only to make the page wider, distorting everybody else's post along with it. -- mod

Hmm, the ASUS cards appeared in my searches as softAP-compatible, but I didn't know there were USB ones. Thanks for the tip, I'll try digging one of those.
-- EDIT --
I just found one nice store not too far from here that got them in their list, and it'll cost about the same as MK itself (cheaper then a router, being a lot smaller). They don't have it in stock, though (I'm waiting them reply me e-mail to tell me when it becomes avaliable).

Hmm.. so anyone here know how to use any other than Nintendo's (Buffalo) USB WLAN stick?
The cheapest PCI WLAN cards are 35? here. *including shipping*
Nintendo DS Wi-Fi adapter (USB) is 48? here. *including shipping*
I wonder why the costs are so high here. Finland has Nokia, lottsa stupid ppl who don't know anything about electronics and has the latest cellular model, digital set top boxes, computers in all homes, and many ppl seem to have LAN or WLAN in their homes. OMG, that all sucks! I am ordering all stuff from other countries, even if I can save just 1?. :D It's cheaper to order from Germany.. low shipping costs + it's European country.
Btw.. is it possible to use that Nintendo USB stick as normal WLAN?

The patch replaces the device ID's and makes a change to ICSAPI.dll backing the old up as ICSAPI.BAK.
Unfortunatly the WLI-U2-KG54-AI does not patch totally correct.
In the [RALINK] Section you need to change the last digit to 7 wich makes USB\VID_0411&PID_0067. I guess he accidantly used the same ID that he used in the WLI-U2-KG54 patch. You also need to change the ID in the INST.INI (i think this is only needed for winxp since the id is only in the XP section).
After the changes are made the setup.exe should work like it's the original nintendo stick. It installs the drivers and set's up connection sharing. If anything goes wrong after the drivers are installed the USB stick is not the issue.
If it did install the drivers you see Nintendo Wifi USB connector in the device manager under network devices.

After many atempts I still can't get WEP to work, but ive excluded all MAC except my laptop and DS and hided the SSID.
It's not 100% secured but it's good enough to keep the idiots from leeching my harddrive :D :P
#62527 - Xtreme - Thu Dec 01, 2005 9:12 pm
I have tried to make a connection, but it will give error when testing the connection.
I tried to get USB A-Link WL54USB working.
http://www.a-link.com/uk/WL54USB.html
DS founds the SSID and after typing password it will save them. But when trying to make a connection test it fails.
I also tried without WEP key.
What is going on?
Btw...
Nintendo Wi-Fi USB??: http://www.buffalo-technology.com/products/product-detail.php?productid=103&categoryid=7
If I buy that, does the drivers + nintendo stuff work as with the branded one?

I can't get it working with my Sitecom wl-115
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0009DEMU2/203-9539884-8942328
This is what my network setup looks like.
[Images not permitted - Click here to view it]
It can't Acquire the network address. It just tried to for a minute then gives up and sets some random one manually.
To clarify things ...
I'm in softap mode.
Set to "802.11 B Only".
Tx Rate is 1Mbps.
There is no WEP set.
I put my MAC address into the driver config.
My error on my DS has changed a couple of times as I've fiddled with my options but. I'm currently getting 51300 with no signal on the test connection.This is when on my computer it says acquiring network address. I also get 52000 where I do get signal on my test connection but it suddenly dissapears and displays an error. This happens when on my computer the ip and subnet is set to random digits and I click repair or when the computer sets a random one.
I have got broadband, but is it because it is dial up is that the problem ?
I don't know much about networking and wifi but I'm learning ...
Thanks in advance for any help :)

Hello,
I'm happy to see that it exists a way to make work the USB Wifi non official key, I've downloaded the Gigabyte drivers then looked for the "Soft ap mode" which is not present. I learned after that soft ap mode only worked with Windows XP like the Official USB KEY !!! So what the fuck ? Is there a way to play online with Windows98 ?
Thanks.
(I have an Asus 167g Usb key)
#64103 - Mr Snowflake - Mon Dec 19, 2005 12:16 pm
The softap drivers also work in 2000. And the point of these drivers is that you don't have to buy the overprised Nintendo stick. I can confirm this works, on both xp (using pci) and 2000 (using pccard).

Well, first off, don't shout expletives. It very degrading. Second, this method wasn't intended for a USB adapter. Make sure you read everything before you jump into doing it (I can't tell you how many e-mails I've gotten of people yelling at me, because they screwed up thier network, without actually checking to see if it would work for them)

Nope. Intel has their own chip-set of their wireless devices, so it's incompatable with the drivers required for this method to work

Major bump here.
I'm still having problems of my own. I have 2 wifi cards, one of which is the gigabyte used in the tutorial. But when I set the gigabyte to ICS, my computer decides it wants to disconnect from the internet. Then I try connecting my DS and it sees the access point but I'll either get the 52000 error or the 51300 error, depending on how my settings are for the SoftAP.
Any new help available?

I couldn't get ICS to work. I used the bridge method and all is well. Just make sure ICS is disabled on both cards and then select them both (hold CTRL), right click, select "Bridge Connections" or "Add to Bridge", can't remember the wording right now. That works fine for me.
If only I could get the DS and SoftAP to work with WEP.... I tried 64 and 128 bit keys, nothing. The DS can't connect to the AP. If I disable encryption, it works fine, I even played a round of MKDS and got my a$$ handed to me by some Japanese player. I verified that WEP works with my laptop, but the DS can't see the AP if I turn it on. I'll just have to keep an eye on it I guess.
Oh, also, DHCP didn't work on the DS either, again, my laptop worked with it just fine. I had to manually assign a static on the DS along with the subnet mask, gateway, and DNS server.

Has anybody tried with windows 2003? I just bough a Conceptronic C54Ri and there's no way I can do it.
I tried installing the drivers in WINXPAP and WINXPSTA folders, but they don't work. I also tried installing the utility first and they said:
"No suitable drivers available".
I don't know what to do know, because this card is in the compatibility list and I don't know why it doesn't work.
#75193 - Yanivke - Fri Mar 10, 2006 10:29 pm
This driver does not work with Edimax EW-7128g.
oh and by the way, this guide you've made doesn't explaine how to install the driver for the card, just the softAP, and the driver cannot be installed, it says "code 10" or something :S

Hi guys,
Have a problem here:
I`m in LAN, using ADSL (cable) connection. My wi-fi card (MSI PC54G2) sends "stuff" but it doesn`t recive it. The problem is an IP adress - my router can`t "see" that card so it also can`t attribute it any adresses. I tried to do this manually, but it still doesn`t recive anything .
DS can connect to it but error appears
Is there a way to make it works?
PS. Sry for my english:)

Centrino can be put into master mode in both Linux and Windows with the standard drivers, so it would work as a soft AP.
I don't know how that works into Darkwind's guide, since I didn't actually read it.
But when I was working on my own Wireless Networking guide, I tested Centrino (under Linux) and had no problems.
