Actually I was wrong about that. I get that message sometimes...

[QUOTE="tomthedude"]Do you know how to make it broadcast the SSID?George_M
That'll vary by router, but on my Linksys WRT54G there are radio buttons for that on the "Basic Wireless Settings" page. If you're entering the SSID correctly in the DS and it's still not finding the router, it sounds like something else though.
So the problem now is that your DS can't see your router at all? You're not getting the "settings not compatible" message?
I was about to say I think I'm closer to fixing it. Ever since I added WEP key encryption, it no longer gives the 'security not compatible' message but now just says there's no acess point in range. Hmm...[QUOTE="tomthedude"]Actually I don't think my router is even being found.George_M
If your router is set to not broadcast its SSID the DS won't see it. You can still set it up by going into the manual Wi-Fi setup in the DS and manually entering the SSID. Or you could set your router to broadcast it if there's no particular reason you had it set not to.
Do you know how to make it broadcast the SSID? I know I have something called 'Enable AP (acess point)' enabled. Also, when I manually enter the info it doesn't find it.Actually I don't think my router is even being found. I will occasionally find 2 other routers that aren't mine but if not I will get those 2 messages without it even showing any in a list..
When I search for an access point, I either get 'No access point in range' error message or 'Security settings used by your router aren't compatible with the Nintendo DS' even though on my routers website I have it set to no WEP key protection, and it still happens when I do set it to WEP protection. Any help??
Read the part where he said 'although in all of these some games/levels are too hard, and anything with a lot of reading is out of his reach'? That means no Pokemon, I'm guessing...The most obvious is of course POKEMON
