Anyone else have this problem?

My ds lite's wi-fi gets connection problems a lot. Mainly when I want to use Animal Crossing Wild World. But for some reason, it just doesn't work. Maybe it's the provider, but I keep entering the right WEP and it still won't work!

Are you far from your router? As i've come to notice ACWW requires a lot more signal strength than most games to connect, like MKDS, when I have 2 bars with MKDS, I have 1 with ACWW, 1 with MKDS (sometimes even 2) and I cant even connect with ACWW, try getting closer.


Also the actual error you're getting may be helpful to help me help you.

Okay, I'm almost right next to it.

I go to copper, and it says it can't connect. Then he says I should go to my wi-fi settings, so I do. Well, then it says connection test failed and I try searching for the router, it finds it. I enter the correct WEP password, and then text the connection. No success. right after that, I tried pokmon diamond wi-fi. It works perfectly. Same spot and everything. I emailed nintendo and asked about it, i haven't replied. Did they cut the ww server?

No WW's server is still up, try restarting your router or removing any firewalls, also you may have to manually input your IP/Subnet/DNS codes yourself, are you using a 2Wire? My freind had this same problem with a 2Wire router.

I used to have the same problem. It was a very long process that sadly I now forgot how to do it.

...wait! It had something to do with the firewall. You have to make sure your router says Shared instead of Open, and that worked for me.

Acutaly I use a wifi connector and most of my problems are with ACWW.
