Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sh!fT_23" data-source="post: 1461047" data-attributes="member: 134758">You may need to alter some settings on your router in order to have your DS access it.- First you should go to the Start Menu, Run..., type cmd and then type ipconfig /all into the window that pops up.- Then open your internet browser such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. Then you want to type in your Primary DNS server address. This should also be the same as your default gateway. Mine is 192.168.0.1- A window should pop up asking you to log in. These will generally be admin or administrator for the username and admin, administrator or *blank (type nothing for the password, and very occasionaly the user name may also be blank). Most commonly it is Username: admin Password: admin or *blank. Try combinations until you can log in. If you are unable to log in you should consult your router's documentation for the username and password.- (these next steps may be different for you as I own a D-Link router but I will try to be as general as possible) Once you have logged in you want to click a tab or button that says Wireless.- This should show you information such as SSID, Authentication and the WEP Key. Go to Authentication and you want to select 'Open System' or something similar (if you have no option like this select WEP).- There will be a few options realting to a WEP key and you should enable these but if you can't access the Wi-Fi on your DS properly you might want to try without these settings. Enable WEP, select 128 Bit for WEP Encryption (you should not need more than that as it is overkill and limits compatibility but should be 128 as minimum). Make 'WEP Mode' 'ASCII'.- Now make a key that you will remember and make sure it only contains only letters and numbers. It needs to be 8 charaters or more generally too. Only make one key as there is usaully the option to make more, you don't want, or need to do this.- Now this is the tricky part. Go to the Advanced tab (if there is one) and select an option of either 'Virtual Server', 'Port Forwarding', 'Games and Applications', or 'Advanced Network'. Pick something sililar if none of these options are there.- You want to give a name such as 'DSHobro' so you can easily identify what it is if you ever need to change something. Where it says 'Private IP' type the IP Address of your computer (or whatever computer you will be using to run Server.exe for DSHobro). For 'Protocol Type' select 'Both' and for 'Public Port' and 'Private Port' enter 666 (this is the default port for DSHobro and you should leave it as this when running Server.exe).- Select 'Always' for the 'Schedule' and ensure that you enable this hit 'Enable' (usually up the top somewhere) and then click 'Apply' or 'OK'.- Now select Firewall in the router configuration page and make sure that DSHobro has been allowed here. If not you will have to do it yourself so if anyone needs to know how to do this send a PM or post in the topic because atm I am tired and want to finish writing lol.- You will also need to make sure your computer's firewall is allowing DSHobro so in XP go to Contol Panel and then go to to Windows firewall (If you use a different firewall or use Windows Vista you need to find your firewall settings). click on the 'Exceptions' (or something similar that applies to you) and then make sure Server.exe is allowed. If not click 'Add Program' (or whatever applies to you) and then 'Browse...' and find where Server.exe is and allow it. You should now be able to connect to DSHobro by following the same procedure that is listed in my previous post.If not I may not be able to help you any further but tell me your problem and try to be specific so I can best help you.</blockquote>
