Hi,
finally i got my router and was playing a little with my ds. So far everything works perfect.
But i discovered that Nintendo only supports WEP. I don;t know why we have to use this less saver encryption.
Is there no way to use, lets say, WPA instead?
So, in order to have my personal highest possible security, i have to switch everytime.
Somewhat bad, in my opinion.

Want it to be safer? Enable MAC Address filtering and only allow the MACs for your stuff on your router (including your DS) and you'll be good to go. Otherwise, no, the DS doesn't support WPA.
