I don't know why. What I did was entered my wi-fi settings in Mario Kart DS and Animal Crossing, they detect my AP but after I entered WEP hex key it says failed to connect. But I did the exact same thing in FFIII it says connection sucessful.
I don't think there really is a solution to that. I have never gotten DSOrganize to connect, but everything elsee works fine. If it were me, I'd take off the WEP code from your router...sorry
Only thing I know for sure about homebrew apps that use WiFi is that SSID reporting MUST be enabled in your router. That is not the case for normal DS games, or the DS Web-Browser, only homebrew. Don't know why.
I imagine it's the same deal with WEP encryption, it must be disabled for homebrew apps/games. But I never tested that theory. My guess is that homebrew doesn't use the WiFi settings you configured in the DS for your mainstream games/apps, or doesn't access them properly to work on secured networks.
All I know is that in my wireless setup, I have SSID broadcasting turned off and WEP encryption enabled. My games and the Opera browser work that way, but DSOrganize does not.

I don't know if this will help much.. but I had a similar problem too. I'm using a D-Link wireless router and after going through all the options for the DI-524 model (From Nintendo's help site http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/wfc/en_na...acturer=D-Link) the DI-524vE1 version worked for me. I changed my authentication to shared key and animal crossing now works alongside FFIII and all those games

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+1 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
