Hey fellow DSers! I've bought myself a Cobalt Blue/Black DS Lite. I have a Cisco Valet wireless N router set up in my home (WEP2). When I try to get on the shop in WarioWare DIY on Wi-Fi, it won't let me. I go to the wireless settings on my DS, and try to search for my router. I find it, enter my WEP key, and confirm it. I proceed to the next step (the connection test) and it totally fails. I called Nintendo customer service and they told me that the DS Lite is only compatable with wireless B routers. I was surprised. I went to my local Fry's Electornics store and asked the video game associate about it. They said wireless B routers are not made any more and my Valet N router SHOULD work with my DS Lite. I also researched online, to find that many routers are compatable with the DS Lite (including B, G, and N). So, why won't my router work with my DS? I've been trying to solve this problem for a while but can't. Can you guys help? Thanks!
