DS Wifi is being a total skank.

So, I'm trying to get Mario Kart to work on my Wireless connection at home.

First I had a 52000 error, so I entered all my IPs/DNS into the manual setup of the DS Wifi Setup. Oh, and I also turned off my WPA security.

Now, I'm getting a 52100 error saying it connected to the access point, but could not connect to the server.

Man, I thought this was supposed to be easy.

Anyone got any pointers?

    First things first. What kind of router?

    I was kind of disappointed when I realized that it just wont work with alot of routers. The ones where I work for example... simply incompatible.

    Good news everyone - Belkin have seen fit to release the 0.35 firmware upsate for their F1PI241EGau router which, according to HA's 666, fixed the DS's dropout problems. So now I can play Mario Kart for a whole round

    If you haven't tried that firmware update, I'd give this a shot before anything else.

    EDIT: NOT from the PA forums, I just googled and found some good advice.
