Ive had the same problem as you have right now.

Solution:

You have to enter your modem settings in your browser:

http://yourIP

Then change the security type to WEP instead of WPA.

And get a new security key right away.

Wright down the first key.

And now start your Nintendo DS.

Done! 8)

I have the same router. Either turn off the security settings or change them to the right one, like WEP. If you turn them off, you'll be ready. If you change to right type of security, you'll still have to one more thing. Just configure wi-fi on ds and when you find your router you'll have to put in this really long encryption key. You should have saved your wireless settings in a folder when you installed router. Open folder and you'll find key. If you have trouble just turn off security for now so you can play. 2 change your settings on router just go on the internet and put http://192.168.2.1 This brings up a thing asking name and password. Leave name blank and put password from installation, the default is admin if you didn't change it. Sry I wrote so much but I know it will work. I typed this from my wii.

metalninjazelda

if you have windows click "start" , then "run..."

i n the prompt type "cmd" and press enter key

in the command line window that pops up type "ipconfig"

and there should be one that says like "default gateway" that one is your ip address

type that ip into your browser and you should be on your router's setup page

This man nailed it perfect. I have the same set-up too.
