Hi all, my console is behaving strangely.
I can't connect to the internet from the normal settings, the search for access points immediately fails, while if I search from the advanced settings, it finds the access points and is also able to connect.
Local wireless (multiplayer) does not work, if I enter DS download the console freezes (the search popup does not appear and if I press back it does nothing even if the clock on the screen continues to scroll), entering pictochat the console says communication error and shuts down.
I noticed the problem after installing twlight menu, but restoring a nand backup that I had before installing stuff the problem persists.
I also changed wifi module to one from a dsi which works 100% but the result remains the same.
I don't know what to do anymore, I thought maybe the problem could be the corrupted firmware but having version 1.4.5e (latest) I can't update.
Any solution? I do not know what to do :(

The WiFi card may not be seated correctly. Try re-seating it.
If the issue persists, then you got another bad WiFi card.

Thanks for the reply but it's not possible, I tried the wifi module of my sister's console which works perfectly, once changed I can also see her saved networks

another doubt is why it can't find the access points but can it from the advanced settings? This makes me think of a software problem

Because your access point is WPA1/2, which cannot be set as a normal connection.
DS games can only use normal connections 1-3, so they cannot use advanced settings, as only TWL (DSi-Enhanced/Exclusive) titles can use them.

the problem is not in connecting to the access point but in finding it, I have a nintendo dsi and a dsi xl, in the dsi I scan and it is successful, in the dsi xl it doesn't even search because it immediately gives an error,can i link a youtube video for show?

I just tested the wifi antenna too and it works fine

I tried nand dump with no$gba and the "download ds" problem doesn't come up,pictochat crashes no$gba but I think that's another problem.
Hoping someone can help me...

I get that. Was just answering your doubt.

Sounds like the WiFi card slot/connector itself is broken in your console, which is why the card works on other consoles.
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix that, so my suggestion is to just get another console.

Yesterday evening I did a firmware downgrade by copying the titles and tickets from the nand backup of the other console, then I performed the firmware update from the settings but still the exact same problem, I also tried to write the wifi firmware of the second console with its wifi card and its antenna,but exact same problem,so at this point i think its something related to the eeprom PAIC3005B (Primary Antenna Interface Controller).
