Tutorial [HOW-TO] Have a homemade Streetpass Relay

[Phile]

You can use either



Try this method.

Completely close the Virtual Router Manager program and try the following commands in command prompt window with admin priveleges.

1)

netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=attwifi key=password

Change "password" to the password key that you are using for the hotspot


2)

macshift -i "YOUR WIFI CONNECTION NAME" "macaddress"

Do this command after navigating to the directory that you keep machshift in. Change "YOUR WIFI CONNECTION NAME" to the name of your physical wireless connection. Replace "macaddress" with one of your choice.

3) Go to the properties of your wired connection and enable internet connection sharing with your virtual hotspot. Then use the following command to start the hotspot

netsh wlan start hostednetwork

Now see if your 3DS can connect to the internet.

Nope, still same problem.

Nope, still same problem.

two simple road blocks:

ICS needs the network of 192.168.0.1 so change your routers network to 192.168.1.1 (that should allow ICS)

with mac shift you need to have the program in the same target directory so that in cmd you can run it. but what i want to mention which again is crucial to get this working is change the WiFi adapters name to "Wi-Fi" also use MACycle.
it makes changing the macs a whole lot easier in windows.


Good luck and see you on homepass

Did everything from the tutorial. But the 3ds will not connect with the virtual network. And yes, the internet connection is shared.
The problem must be somewhere else.

When you checked all the networks especially the adapter and virtual access point, were they connected?

Hello guys, sorry for the dumb question, but i'm really bad at hardware. What is a "wifi card" ?

 

[darren42]

It is the device in your computer/laptop that allows you to connect to a wireless network

Is the same thing that a Wireless USB adaptor? I must have a wired connection AND a wifi card?

 

[darren42]

A wireless usb adaptor peforms the same function, the difference is how they connect to your computer/laptop.

To setup a streetpass relay you need at least a wifi card or a wireless usb adaptor to create the wireless hotspot. The internert connection that is also required can be either from a wired or wireless connection.

There are a few other methods of setting a streetpass relay up, but I assume that you are talking about setting it up on a computer running windows.

 

[Qoff]

Yes i have a desktop, tomorrow i'll buy the wireless usb adaptor so.

Try to get one that does not use an Atheros chipset, they seem to cause a lot of problems for people trying to setup a streetpass relay.

You may need to do a google search or ask the sales person to determine which chipset a device uses, as I don't think the chipset information will be printed on the packaging.

What do you think of this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/802-11n-g-b...pter-Network-LAN-Card-w-Antenna-/200755616792

 

[darren42]

Looks good since it uses a Ralink RT5370 chipset and not an Atheros.

Has anyone counter me in homepass Mii name Gervanie

Yes I did yesterday

Your mii was wearing a Waddle Dee hat wasn't it?

Yep

 

[darren42]

My mii is "darren42" if you want to check if you have encountered me.

I have a seperate 4 seperate batch scripts that I run through for homepass

1) Official Nintendo Hotspots
2) Offset Prime MACs (0E and 2E offsets)
3) Personal MAC Addresses
4) Prime & Extended MAC Addresses

Hello.

I'm looking for help for someone !

When he tries to run Duke's script on his router, he got this error:

/bin/sh: eval: line 1: /tmp/nzone.sh: not found

What can be the problem ?

Giving us more information would be a good thing, for instance, what router, what version of DD-WRT (number and type). It seems he uses a micro build which does not support that script.

 

[Beyondlsd]

What D-Link router and what version (mini/micro/small and version number) of DD-WRT did you install?
You can always try this script! Works for me, as I do not like to be reliable on someone else's internet (just put it in the cron tab and apply):

0-59/6 * * * * root ifconfig eth1 down && ifconfig eth1 hw ether 40:53:50:4F:4F:`/bin/cat /proc/interrupts | /usr/bin/md5sum | /usr/bin/cut -b 1``/bin/cat /proc/interrupts | /usr/bin/md5sum | /usr/bin/cut -b 1` && ifconfig eth1 up
3-59/6 * * * * root ifconfig eth1 down && ifconfig eth1 hw ether 4E:53:50:4F:4F:`/bin/cat /proc/interrupts | /usr/bin/md5sum | /usr/bin/cut -b 1``/bin/cat /proc/interrupts | /usr/bin/md5sum | /usr/bin/cut -b 1` && ifconfig eth1 up

This worked like a charm for me. The script that was relying on the other persons website kept failing on me for whatever reason. I get 10 passes every hour or so. Using a asus rt-n16 with dd-wrt with "big" firmware. I set the radio power down to the bare minimum and left only one antennae and MAC filtering.

Thanks for this.

The router is a TP-LINK TL-WR740N (V4) & the firmware is "DD-WRT v24-sp2 (03/25/13) std (SVN revision 21061)"

Good to hear, have fun getting streetpasses! If you want more per hour, just change the 0-59/6 to 0-59/3 and the 3-59/6 to 3-59/3 that gets you double the SPs.

That should work, have you reset factory defaults and set it up again? Works in some cases. Also, if that doesn't work, try the script in the post above yours.
