Quick question quick answer

got my self a wii but no wireless network so could i just get the Nintendo DS USB Access Point and use it to connect to the wii

[sj33]

Yep.

[MattyD]

I use one and once it's set up on the PC it's ridiculously easy to set up - you just select Nintendo USB Access Point and it's all done

[dave heats]

does that work on a mac?

[briareos_kerensky]

It runs only under WinXP. I think that Datel's Wi-Fi Max USB dongle works fine on a Mac.

[elaniel]

will the UK one work on a US machine?

[MattyD]

The dongle is a PC peripheral, it has no region lock or anything. I've used both European and US DS games with it and had no problems as well as my Wii.

awesome dude... thanks!

[MrKirov]

Could you buy another dongle thats not an official nintendo one for cheaper, that would do exactly the same thing?

?25 is a bit much for me tbh.

[elaniel]

check out VG+. They in stock for 17

[MattyD]

I paid ?19 for mine in GameStation. If they have any in stock they keep them behind the counter.

Heres how i done it on my iMac,i'am no expert but i hope i can lead you in the right direction.

Go to System preferences

Sharing,then in this menu internet

then where it says share your connection from Select airport

then press start

Thats the basics of it hope it gets you going.you may have to mess around with security and stuff,you dont want the neighbours pinching your bandwith

Also i found some very usefull info on 1UP.com setting up the ds with macs airport,but that was last christmas.
