stuck on number 7
when i check a box that enables connection sharing i get an error:
An error has occurred while Internet connection sharing was being enabled.
internet connection connection sharing cannot be enabled.
A LAN connection is already configured with the ip address
that is required for automatic ip addressing.
OK so i fixed my problem and i did everything......i followed kj's video and set the same settings as him :l thing is i am slowly receiving packets..........then it stops
ethernet adapter local area connection
IP address: 192.168.0.2
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
default gatewat: 192.168.0.1
preferred dns server in internet(TCP/IP):192.168.0.1
"shared"
ethernet adapter wireless network connection 2
IP address:192.168.0.3
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
dns server left blanked.
i added my mac address
have you got any firewall installed? you may have to add the adapter onto the allow all traffic list
all i have is the windows xp firewall and it was turned off. ill try other things.

Hi, i'm new here!
First I want to thank you for this great tutorial! (which is now almost 2 years old...)
But I have a problem
I've set all things, like drivers, and all the settings in the ASUS Wlan card settings program.
All the connections work fine, I have the ability to browse the internet, and playing games online.
However, if I try to use homebrew applications, like DSamp and SvSIP, I can not connect to the wifi USB connector. These application say that the connection failed...
Does anyone know a solution for this problem??
Thanks in advance
(i'm sorry if this is a question someone else already asked, i've searched several pages of this topic but did not find any solution...)
Edit: I have a LAN connection to a router, when I try to enable "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's connection" (in the settings of the Wi-fi USB dongle), I lose connectivity of the LAN connection. Then the USB dongle is shared, but I don't have internet on my computer at all (and the LAN connection says it is still connected). When I try to share my LAN connection, I have internet again, and I am able to play games online on the DS. But how do I connect with homebrew..??
****FIXED****
I've already fixed the problem :-)
The solution:
If you go to Config in the ASUS program, and you see "Networkd authentication" is turned on "Shared", then turn it to "Open"!!!

the settings for the ipod touch are the same for anything else, im not sure why the ICS is greyed out, is your connection ICS enabled (network connections, LAN etc?)?

I'm sorry if my reply is coming out of the blue here, but I followed all the steps to this guide and tested the connection with my Nintendo DS, and it all works out. However I can't figure out how to connect my laptop to it all. I've searched around but the creator of this thread PM'ed the answer to that question to people so I'm lost now :/ Any help?

make sure the NWCUSBAP is set to visible, then on your laptop go to my network places, then on the side click on set up a wireless network. Then just follow the instructions

Does anybody know the range on this USB connector when used as a SoftAP? I want to use it for my laptop and just wondered if I would be able to use it all over the house.
Thanks

Hiya all
I know this guide/help is specific to the 'Nintendo Wifi USB Connector'
(presuming thats a specific adapter) can this guide also apply to the EDUP Wireless USB Adapter ?
I would think the drivers probably wouldn't be compatible but I do have the EDUP installed so it's just the software part that I need to get sorted.
Im tryng to use this EDUP adapter as an AP for my PSP

Thank you OP for this setup, I have my nintendo wifi stick working with my DS & my laptop. Of course there's still a roadblock. I cant connect to either device with windows (xp) firewall on, & I cant figure out for the life of me how to add this as an exception. It's not a huge deal to turn off the firewall while using the ds, but the laptop can be in use for hours @ a time.
Little help?
thanks
Roldy

not sure if this will work but try
control panel>security centre>windows firewall>advanced
then make sure wireless connection is ticked and click ok
but if it still doesnt work, disable windows firewall and download a free one like pc tools firewall (which i have, which i think is better since you can monitor which programs are allowed access to the net and what programs are trying to do. You'll need to allow all traffic in the network adaptors as well for it to work

I have read through this entire tutorial but still have one problem. All of the steps have been properly completed and the access point is working (thank you) on both PSP and Ipod touch. However, It is not working on my DS. I have manually set up the IP to be one digit higher than the Router, set subnet mask same as router, set gateway and dns same as router. I have my SSID properly set also. But My DS cannot connect, I have to unplug the router and plug it back in just for my ds to pick up a signal which it soon loses. I have tried several different programs on the DS to connect with but none work.
