Hacking DSi Wifi broken!?

[ACWWFAN]

This is really makin me upset. Alright, so about a week ago, when trying to play wifi with a DS game it started acting funny. It wouldn't connect right away, then I would reset the DSi, (hard reset) and it would work. I had to do this about once a day. Well now that doesn't work anymore. So I figured I'd just go and re connect with the settings and it should be fine. Well now whn I go to connections 1-3 I try searching and get nothing, it does it for like 2 seconds (literally) and says no access point in range. So then I go to advanced settings an try it and I can connect to it. Keep in mind it's WEP. It also shows quite a few neighbors wifi as well. I tried setting up wifi thru a game as well, didn't work. The yellow light doesn't even blink. So, I'm coming to you very desperate, what should I do? Also, I'm on the DSi shop now, so the connection for Connection 4 works on DSi stuff, but not DS games

UM that's weird....

I would say it could be the router after all... but you said you hard reset your DSi and it worked temporarily...

hmm this is strange...
maybe you should ring nintendo, ask then about the problem.

For some reason the Advanced Connection settings search better, I have no idea why though.

As scrtmstr said, try calling Ninty tech service or send them an email explaining your problem.

I would also recommend contacting Nintendo if the issue persists and have the professionals look at it.

Ok, update. I was able to connect (sort of) with manual set up. I put in all the info and stuff, and then I try to connect and it gives me 050099-2 which I looked up. The problem is, everythings compatable, my old DS still connects, and my brothers DSi does. I don't have to use manual connection either, ideas?

I'd say it's the modem then

Well guys, I was able to fix it, I took my DSi apart and just kinda blew some dust out that was in it (sounds weird I know) and now it works XD. I just hope it's for good.
