All you need is access to an access point's control panel.

You don't need a Mac, neither Windows. All you need is a router and configure it with SSID attwifi . That's all. I've tested it on a linksys router and a thomson DSL/router and it works excellent

And I don't even have to make it an open network? Bonus!Edit: So I tried playing around with stuff and opened a hidden guest network called attwifi. What's interesting is that when I went to test it in the System Settings, it said the service isn't avaliable here.Coincidence?As well, it does seem that I need an open network. I'd better go and change some settings then.

this worked for me but I'm guessing we need the best buy one if we want the best buy promotions? (10-50% off on games).

How does one do this under Windows 7 ??

It is not dependent on the OS, just the ability to configure your wifi access point to be open, and named attwifi. Myself, I have a linksys router, with DD-WRT installed, so I don't even have to rename the existing node, just create a new virtual one, with the name.

 

[loco365]

@Pippin666 You'll need a certain IP address. Open Command Prompt and type in "ipconfig/all" and it should be near the top. Then, enter it in your web browser. You'll need a username and password, usually the username is "admin" and the pass is the name of the company that made it.

The best way to set this up (how I did it) is to create a guest network called "attwifi" and save. Thwn, when you want to use it, just enable the guest network, and when you don't, disable it.

Does someone mind explaining how to use your Android to connect to the Nintendo Zone network?

 

[Foxi4]

LOL, that was quick. MUCH quicker then emulation of DS download stations. Good job, Nintendo.

Could you do this with Tomato also?

Yes! Thanks so much for sharing~

In your wireless settings, go to tethering and portable hotspot ---> Mobile AP settings

 

[morphius]

so this nintendo zone business just connects you to the internet, and pulls data from nintendo's servers? I thought it was to be location dependent ????

 

[loco365]

I thought there were kiosks in the back of stores and whatnot lol

Looks like I was very wrong.

Got it working using my laptop as the access point

Now if only streetpass data was so easy to do this with


EDIT: Not much to do in the app at the moment, just a "coming soon" page basically :-(

I tested here in Brazil (we use US system here)... It works fine... videos and the trivia are working OK, but no content in portuguese yet (my console main language)...

 

[Spider123]

I got it working on my computer and it's fairly cool. There isn't much right now except news and a Mario trivia game, but I can't wait to have demos and Pokemon in my own home.

There are many people on leather board so nintendo already know that we can acess, so I hope we do not get it blocked on next firmware update...

If they put a network named "!@#$mfÊweo0f´p3é~ç" for example, how we will find out?
