Well I just got MarioKart DS for Christmas and Animal Crossing:WW. But I can't get my Westell mode/router to work. It says that it can't obtain an IP adress then when I type one in it doesn't accept the information. Can anyone help or will I have to buy a USB adapter?

Ya, the DS is very finiky about what it will connect too. I went out and got a D-Link router the day I got my PSP. It's the DI-624 and it works flawlessly with my PSP and my DS, as well as my dads laptop. If you have the money you can get one for about $30 with a $20 instant rebate and a $20 mail in rebate. (thats what I got with mine.

EDIT!: Make sure your router is in 802.11b mode, make sure it's B and not G, the DS won't run on G and most routers are preset on G because it's faster than B.

Upgrade your firmware!

Check to see if you have a right version firmware, first.
