DS Misc > How to connect to wireless router?

#70356 - Pinesal - Sun Feb 05, 2006 9:36 pm

At home I have a modified Nintendo Wifi Dongle and I can use it fine but I went to my parents house and I wanted to show them Win2DS but they have a linksys wireless router and a couple of laptops.

How can I set it up to connect to one of those laptops? How would the router know with laptop to connect to? Which ip info do I use?

Type IPConfig in Command Prompt of one of the laptops.
You'll see it's local IP. You can enter that to access DS2Win on that PC.

How did you manage to use win2DS with the usb stick? Mines modified and everytime i try to connect it doesn't get past the waiting stage.

A lot of times what it's waiting I have to press b to get back to the password screen then press a again and it loads. Weird, but it works.
