Nintendo WiFi Connection User Details




Posted by WILLETH FOR MONTHS

Okay, here we go. This is going to be a place for everyone to list their Friend ID numbers so that we can all find each other online if we want to play against each other.

Don't worry - by sharing your Friend ID in this thread you're not going to be giving anybody access to your DS to hack it, or alter data, or anything. All that we'll able to do is beat you, over and over again. Or you'll beat us. But that's not going to happen.

If we could use the below as a standard then that'd be great.

To get friend code banners like the ones in my sig, just register at http://www.friendcodes.com.

(I'm on a very restrictive university broadband service, so I'm having trouble connecting with the WiFi Connector - I'm looking to fix that fairly soon, but for now it's a bit of an intermittent thing. So I won't be on as often as I'd like, sorry. I have to go down to the McDonald' down the road. :))


I've a feeling that each individual player will have their own stats page on http://www.nintendowifi.com. If so, then a link to it would also be extremely useful.

Well, they can just add you to their Friends List as find you when you're online, I think.

But the only thing that it could affect on Mario Kart is your overall score :)

Shhh, unfortunately, I did.

Ugh, whenever I get ahead of people they immediately disconnect. We aren't even halfway into the first lap, and it's happened multiple times now.

we should have some sort of system where we can organize races. My bro made a chat room type thing at the IGN boards where you talk to people and see if they are open for wifi races.

Also, do any of you know if Roadrunner can be used for Wi-Fi? Im getting it on the 28th and I just want to know, since I do not have widows XP, I cannot use the USB cord either, Hopefully, RR works fine. I called the Number but they said they have it down but it doesn't mean it won't work.

I think we should give each other AIM screen names if we want to race. That way it's easier to communicate; if someone posts "let's race," someone might not see that soon enough.

$43.99. If you liked the series in the past, you should love this game. It feels somewhat shallow at first, but it's really engrossing. It's definitely worth the price, IMO.

Oh, and Zelda_Guy and VRZ, keep it to the PMs.

Wi Fi is just starting to **** me off. NO store, and i mean NO store has a wireless router. THEIR ALL SOLD OUT, AND IM DIEING TO PLAY ONLINE MARIO KART.

It's called Best Buy or Comp USA. If you don't have those stores try Circuit City, they may have it. If all else fails Wal-Mart may sell them since they sell practically everything.

I've been distracted with other DS games as well, Don't be suprised if my house and stuff isn't that nice. I haven't played it as much as I would if it was the only DS game I had.




Posted by Colonel

no no no no no, you don't understand, i've called EVERYWHERE for that USB router no one, i mean no one has it. I have no Circuit City nearby, but i do have the Source by circuit city (don't have any routers). I live in Canada so there is no Comp. USA. Wal-mart doesn't have it, EB games doesn't have it, Best Buy doesn't have it, Zellers doesn't have it, and Toy's r Us doesn't have it. Bummer.

EDIT: Crap, my life just got worse as far as video games go. Can't play Wi Fi. I told my dad that Wal-Mart has a wireless router made by linksy and he did some reserch and it says that routers take up memory, and my computer sucks so my dad won't let me get the router until we get a new computer which will be, like, i don't know, 6 or 7 months. Poop foiled by the video gaming world again.

Im having a problem with my wifi connection. Everytime I connect to nintendo wifi by opening up my gate, after about 10 minutes of having it open the game freezes and a message pops up saying something like "Connection lost, game will resest". The game will end up reseting and any progress I may have done is lost. I would like to keep my gate open for people to come in, but I can't with it freezing up like this. It doesn't happen when I go to other peoples towns. Anyone know why this happens?

I fyou want eh USB connector you have to order it from Nintendo. If no other stores have the wireless router then you will have to buy the USB connection from Nintendo. Usually any store that specializes in selling computer stuff will sell it. If for some reason a cpmputer store isn't near you or for some wierd reason the just don't sell a router you will have to buy teh USB connector from Nintendo.

No. My friend has the wirless router made by linksy at it works fine with Wi Fi. Its just routers take up memory and my dad wont allow me to by one.



Posted by WILLETH FOR MONTHS

Yes, but he was saying that if another brand of router isn't available, then the Nintendo one is your only option. It's also a lot easier to set up.

Inequity - the first thing you need to do is to go to McDonalds and see if you get the same problem. If you do, it's most likely a problem with the WFC as a whole, and it'll be fixed soon. If not, then you'll have a problem with your Internet connection, and that's up to you to troubleshoot.




Posted by Mystic Hero


Quoting .hack//: No. My friend has the wirless router made by linksy at it works fine with Wi Fi. Its just routers take up memory and my dad wont allow me to by one.


It depends how much memeory your computer has left to hold. If it isn't capable of having a wireless router hooked up to it then don't get it. Now a router would also come in handy if you have more than one computer and you need your whole house connected, like in my situation. So for me my router was needed long ago to hook my house up. If you have that problem you can persuade your dad to let you buy one. If you you already have your house wired by some other method or just don't have a lot of computers in your home that need to be hooked into the internet, then you have no use for the router except to help you play the DS on the WFC server. In which case you must resort to the USB port. Otherwise go to your friend's hosue and use his connection. This is the same problem my friend has and he just goes to his neighbor's house to get a connection.

Edit: wtf is going on with the time? I mademy post after .hack//. Hmm maybe he has his time messed up or something.



Posted by inequity

I have a question. If somebody quits a race during mario kart, right when your about to win, does that still count as a win for me, even though everyone else quit?

By the way, everyone who posted a mario kart friend code is on my roster now. Everyone. So, you can add me if you like: 262054-759439

Will the Nintendo USB connector take up memory?
My computer is a 20 Gig hard drive , and my computer has about 6 gigs left in it.




Posted by WILLETH FOR MONTHS

The recommended stats are 10MB of hard disk space, and 256MB of RAM, so you're absolutely fine, seeing as XP requires 256MB anyway.

In reality, the WiFi Connector software takes up about 2MB of hard disk space, but that's only with one system registered. With five, it could well take it up to 10MB, and I don't know the size of the drivers.

But yeah, you can run it, as long as you have Windows XP.

Posted by NightmareBassX

Hey, do any of you besides Wings (I think) own Tony Hawk American Sk8land? Its a great game, and I'd say the online capabilities are much more organized then MK:DS. Its alot of fun, its much better then I thought it would be. One thing about it though, is when I first played it, I really thought about bringing it back, But then I really got into liking it, and man is it fun. But people on there are amazing, Top score is like 78 million on pro mode in 1 2 minute run. I recommend that you buy it, if you have gotten bored of MK:DS online. Im sick of doing the levels over, and over, and over again.

It's quite simple. The DS operates using Wifi, so it can access the internet completely wireless. All you need is a hotspot, which is basically a router that broadcasts a wireless signal. If you don't have that, you can buy a connector (this thing: http://www.cnet.com.au/i/r/2005/games/portable/ds_wifi_connector_b.jpg) from a game store that piggybacks off of your PC's connection using a USB port. However, they're pretty pricey, like, forty bucks. You can buy a cheap wireless router for around twenty.

Once you have that, all you need is a Wifi-enabled game, go into the settings, follow the instructions, and bam, you're basically online.

Holly crap. That is by far my discovery of the century. That is so hardcore.

So, how do I know if I need a wire or if it's good to log on without one?
Too bad I don't have it here with me. It's at my moms. x_o;

So, I basically turn it on being near a computer and voila or do I need a special website or something?




Posted by WILLETH FOR MONTHS

No special website required. It all depends on how your Internet connection is set up. If it's wireless Internet, chances are you'll be able to navigate through the menus on your DS and use it from there, after setting up the connection in your DS. You don't even need a wire to connect your DS to your PC - all you need is an Internet connection and something in your computer that connects a wireless network. If you don't have that, then you'll need that white USB connector that was pointed out to you. I use that, an it couldn't be easier.

By far the easiest way to do it is to go to your local McDonalds, turn on your DS, select internet play and connect. You don't even need to ask the staff.




Posted by Ziggy

hahaha

thanks for the help.

What do you meen by connecting at McDonalds?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Well, you need to be near a wireless router. That's the most important thing. You should be able to tell if it's wireless just by looking at it. Once you have that, go into the settings od a Wifi game and try to connect. If that doesn't work, refer to the manual and go through the additional steps. If THAT doesn't work for whatever reason, your router may not be broadcasting the proper signal. Which will mean you need Nintendo's connector or a newer wireless router.

That's it. You need anything expect a computer, a router, and a DS.


Edit: Wings beat me to it



Quoted post: What do you meen by connecting at McDonalds?


All McDonalds are hotspots. So you can use any wireless device in there.



Posted by Ziggy

I'll get my DS for next week, I'll try it and tell you guys how it ended up going.
Chances are I won't survive this big adventure. The game'll most likely blow up in my face and kill on impact like that cat last year...

nvm what was written here. I thought I was in another thread.)




Posted by WILLETH FOR MONTHS

Most McDonald's restaurants in the US and UK have free wireless access for DS users. In the US it's provided by a company called Wayport; in the UK, BT Openzone. Just have a look on the wall of the restaurant to find their logo - it should be fairly obvious. If you're not sure, just ask the staff if they have WiFi access.

If they have, sit down, boot up your DS, and select the WiFi option (it's the one with the red and yellow lines coming out of a DS symbol). That'll connect you to the Internet. If it doesn't, you need to do a very quick setup, and it's very self-explanatory: it'll search for a connection, find one, and then you Just press A until it's done.
After you're connected, you'll be able to search for people to play against. From there it's up to you.

Note: when I say Internet, I don't mean like websites and stuff. I mean that your DS will be connected, wirelessly, to any other DS in the world you care to choose that's doing the same thing you are.

EDIT: [url=http://www.nintendowifi.com/consumerservice/gettingStarted.do?entryId=home]Click here[/url] for help on how to set up a connection at home. If you can't do that, then go [url=http://www.nintendowifi.com/hotspots/searchHotSpot.do]here[/url] and put your Zip code in to find your nearest connection point for Nintendo WiFi Connection.

Once you're connected, very game will give you a Friend Code - you can give this to people to set up specific matches rather than just random people online. Note that only a handful of games right now are WiFi enabled - Mario Kart, Tony Hawk, Animal Crossing, Metroid Prime and Tetris being the only ones out right now that can use it, although more are coming.

What about McDonalds in Canada? Better yet, Quebec? This place has nothing. I'd be surprised they having connection. I've never seen anyone playing with a DS in one.




Posted by WILLETH FOR MONTHS

Well, not a lot of people do, but the option is there. I've a feeling Wayport offers access in Canada as well - if so, Quebec will definitely have some spots. Have a look at the link I provided in my previous post to find your nearest one.

Not necessarily. Quebec is basically an entirely different country. So just because it applies to Canada, doesn't mean it applies to Quebec.

Hello! My name is Dave Chatuee and I'm a monkey Scientist. In recent years we have learned many interesting things about monkeys.
FACT: Did you know that monkey's are actually responsible for mix-matching you're socks? They are also guilty of stealing car and house key's from over a million Americans each day...and then...Placing them in really, inconvenient places in your own household!
FACT: It was a monkey that actually shot and killed JFK
FACT: Monkeys are not born, but hatch from a grotesque Primal alien cocoon.
FACT: Monkeys celebrate the birth of a newborn, by stabbing, shooting and then hanging another member of there clan.
FACT: Did you know that monkeys's actually can not be killed by fire or bullets? The only thing that can kill a monkey is a Silver bullet....placed inside of a blue-burning, wood stake....taped to a cross.....drenched in holly water....and shot out of a Large cannon, in the middle of the day, in a location with a lot of sunlight.
FACT: Monkeys are sexually attracted to fire.
FACT: Captured Monkeys if not properly watched, will actually eat there own facies until they die.
FACT: Did you know that 9 out of 10 Monkey's are actually born, clutching a large bazooka?
FACT: Did you know that monkey's can actually invade you're dreams and then crap on you? It's true over a 20 people we spoke to at the local mental hospital, said they report seeing monkeys on a regular basis.
FACT: Did you know that for over 2 thousand years, monkey's have been actually secretly planning to take over the world? In 1948 in Roswell New Mexico, a large Space craft crash landed in a near by field. Later the wreckage would be returned under covert conditions to a local air base later dubbed Area-51. It was not aliens that they found on the air craft though. It was monkeys! Little monkeys in silver jump suits and tin helmets! When one of the monkey's awoke later, He began to speak to the area nurse in EBONICS. He said that monkeys had been planning to take over the planet and eventually the whole universe since the beginning of time, BUT they didn
