I heard u can connect your laptop 2 the internet using your mobile phone anywhere. well, whatabout your ds, can u connect to wi-fi anywhere if u have a good enough mobile??? and also what does that hidden button for in the top left corner in the Wi-Fi connection settings 4? If u have no idea what i am talking about, go to the wi-fi settings then pick a connection, 1 2 or 3 then tap the VERY TOP LEFT of the touch screen.
wooooo!

Yes, if you go to a local free hotspot at McDonald's or Starbucks or where ever I think you should be able to connect.
You will need to set it up in the connection part in the wifi settings.

I heard that people use their laptops in public using their mobile phone as a wireless modem,
So instead of using a Nintendo Buffolo Wi-Fi adaptor i want to use a mobile instead
thx

You can use something like a LaptopConnect card on a lap top to connect to the Net, but I haven't seen anything like that which would punch into the GBA slot on a DS.
That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, just that I haven't seen it.

have you tried using the mobile phone as a modem for your laptop?? ive never heard of that, but im not sure if its also not true. if it works for a laptop and acts as an access point or hotspot for the laptop, then it SHOULD work for the ds. i have not tested it so im just assuming it would

not possible. the mobile phone is connected to the laptop via usb cable. the mobile phone acts as a modem.

oh, i did not know the phone would be connected to the laptop while it was acting as a modem.
i guess it wouldnt work unless MAYBE, the phone had a mini-usb jack, you get a mini-usb jack adapter for a normal usb, then get a usb adapter for the nintendo ds lite charger (which is both found in dealextreme). wonder if that'll work..but i doubt the phone as a modem for the ds would work at all.

some phones accept mini-usb, but the trouble would be getting the ds to accept the phone. you'd need to install drivers and programs.

I think you would have more luck going the other way. Use a card to connect a lap top to the net, and then use the DS's wireless to connect to the laptop. You'd have to get something that would make the lap top essentially turn into a wireless access point for the DS.
Let the lap top do the heavy lifting in terms of sorting out the connection and finding the Net.

I mean absolutely no offense, but that was pretty funny. :P
I've never heard of using a mobile phone as a modem, I can't imagine the speed being very good...

About as long as it took to type it.
No offense intended- it was supposed to be funny.
Apparently misread your sense of humor. Apologies. Have it locked in now.
