Homebrew Win2DS

[Reaper]

How do I set it up?

 

[Mr.Mister]

Get DS2Win Fusion v0.82 which is way better.

1. To set it up you need a wireless router and a PC that is connected to said router. Run DS2Win on your computer.
2. If you have a Windows PC hover above the wireless icon on your taskbar and right click it and go to properties. A window will open up.
3. Click on a tab called support and then find your IP address. Usually it's 192.168.X.X.
4. Load up DS2Win on your DS and then when it prompts for your IP address put it in and then select the top command. (Auto connect or something like that...)
5. ???
6. Profit!!

Hope that helps.

stuck on waiting

Make sure DS2Win is running on your computer an there is no password.
Otherwise you should be able to run with no problem. Check if you put in the correct IP address again.



Advanced: Make sure UDP port 8888 is open if it isn't already.

Network setup is almost always a bitch.

Computer:
First, I'll assume you're using Windows XP. Connect your computer to the router, either by plugging in a cable from your computer to one of the ports (not the WLAN port) on the back of the router or by connecting with a wireless USB adapter.
Check the 'status' of your connection, to find your computer's IP address (You'll need to enter that at the IP prompt on DS2Win).
Make sure Win2DS is running on your computer.

Router:
Make sure your router is able to transmit with wireless B. If you have it set to G-only (or N, if you have it), it won't work.
You may want to set up a WEP key. Make sure it's 'Open', and not 'Shared'.

DS:
You should have run an online-capable DS game (or DSOrganize, etc.) to set up your connection.
Enter the SSID and WEP key (if applicable) of your router
The Gateway and the Secondary DNS will both be your router's IP
The primary DNS will be your computer's IP
Make sure your DS's IP doesn't conflict with those.
