Anyway, like the title says. I can't connect my PSP or NDS to the Internet.
I did it once and kept the settings, but now, it just won't connect.
I've tried nearly everything, so if someone could tell me what needs putting where?

NDS -
IP Address - This is the NDS IP address right? So all I do is use my IP address and change a number at the end of the address
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Gateway - Am I supposed to use my IP, the routers IP or the GW-USMini2N IP address?
Primary DNS - I use OpenDNS so that's 208.67.222.222

PSP settings are the same just that Gateway is called Default Router.
Oh and with my PSP, it always gives me the same error - DNS error.

Yup. Provided it isn't conflicting with another device with the same ip.

Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Should be fine

Gateway - Am I supposed to use my IP, the routers IP or the GW-USMini2N IP address?
If connecting directly to the router, then you put in your router's ip address.

Primary DNS - I use OpenDNS so that's 208.67.222.222

Letting your DHCP server assign all this should work. I would carefully go through the settings on your router to see if there's a problem. Also you could try changing your router's wireless channel and temporarily disable wifi security to troubleshoot. Also be sure you don't have mac filtering on and you're not hiding SSID.

Well, I don't have access to the router since I don't know the password but it's never been a problem before.

I just tried without security and it didn't work. I might try and uninstall the drivers/software and do it all again since that's what I did last time and it worked.

Nope, still doesn't work and for some reason, when it's trying to connect, my computer disconnects from the Internet as well.

You tried re-entering the WEP key settings I presume?
Could be your router got borked in the lightning Britain had recently?
Password has probably never been changed and is printed on the underside of your router.

This is the GW-USMini2N I'm using soft AP mode to try and connect.
