DS cant access router!

[superspiffy]

I just bought StarFox and trying to WiFi, but the DS can't see my router after setting the SSID and WEP codes. It can see my neighbor's unlocked router though, and can connect to it, but I'd still rather have the DS connect to mines. My router is broadcasting b/g mixed, and set to channel 1. My Wii can connect to it perfectly.

oh ya and the error code is 51099

Try checking the nintendowifi homepage, some routers are not compatible at all.

i think i had a similar problem but i can't remember the error code exactly. anyways, make sure the wep key is the first one if you are able to select more than one. for example, (i think) the linksys router allows you to select from a few keys... select the first one and enter the correct key on your ds.

Check out the nintendo wifi page. You may have to configure some of the settings on your router to let the DS connect. Go to the link, pick your country/language.... then pick tech support at the top - then router info
