*cries a bit at missing out on Dragonite* this sucks x.x i can neither Go to actual events, OR trade via wi-fi anymore since my adapter sucks and i can't figure out my damn wireless crap... ._.;

*sighs*

Congrats on getting the dragonite though =3
And believe me, I've done stuff like that XD Asking when new games come out while holding something With the date on it.

Well I thought I was being smart getting a ride from my mother, but then she was all "WELL SINCE WE DROVE ALL THIS WAY OH THERE HAPPENS TO BE A GIANT MALL HERE LETS SHOP FOR YEARS"

x__x

So what's up with your wireless?

Oh joy =\ I've had that happen several times.. Wanting to go someplace for ONE thing, and then my mother turns around and says "Oh we're near such and such place" and we end up staying out for several hours instead of maybe 1 hour tops

honestly, i have no clue ._. i can't get my wireless router to work cause i can't figure out the passcode (if there is one) that my uncle put on it before he moved out...... And the wireless adapter i had just stopped working all of a sudden... (just like my AR)

She did at least buy me dinner, which I am always grateful for. X3

There should be a way to reset the router to factory settings, I'd just do that and configure it however you want. (if it's a netgear, the default user is admin and the password is password XD) The router's no good to anyone if nobody in the house knows how to get into it.

haha, yeah that's what happens with my mum, she usually buys dinner ^^;

As for my router it's this one http://www.dlink.com/products/?sec=0&pid=292
and i have no clue on how to reset it to factory specs... so I'm afraid I'll mess something up seeing as this is out only router.. x.x

(Thank you for the watch btw! ^^)

Ah, DLinks, they had a ton of these at the last place I worked. There's a small hole in the back where they hide the reset button. You want to use a paperclip or anything you can't break (pencils are a bad idea) hold it down for about 30 seconds. The lights should flash. Dlinks are really not very stable though, they went through a ton of them at work. So it's really up to you if you want to try and reset it. Asking your uncle isn't an option? :3

http://www.dlink-me.com/ftp/wireles.....manual_100.pdf go to connections it'll show you where it is, plus there are configuration directions.

The thing with this router is you'd need the adapter I guess. Since I'm pretty sure the DS on it's own only supports WEP security (and your router is only WPA). Unless you want to leave the wireless unsecured (not sure if that's an option).

I am far from being a computer guru. XD

oh wow thank you o.o
I'll have to figure out if it's worth it to try and mess with it though first =\
*looks at the info*
Good thing I looked at that manual before I did anything with mine... Cause it's not the one I have... =\
Mine is the "D-LINK T-Mobile HotSpot @ Home 802.11g Wireless Router" If that helps any x.x
I got it through e-bay about a year ago =\


As for asking my Uncle... That's not an option. ._. He's a genius with computers, but a moron with everything else... Him and I don't get along as well as he'd like to believe, so I don't bother speaking with him if I can help it.

That first product link you gave me was to the AirPlus Xtreme G DWL-2100AP so that's the one I looked up. 8D I'm looking for the manual but T-Mobile's page is loading slower than cold molasses in winter. :P I did see one photo of the back of it in an auction page, the reset looks like it's all the way over on the right.

I sure can tell you how to port forward though 8D http://portforward.com/english/rout.....40/default.htm

Actually that link says the default username and password are both admin, so that's a start.

I can't seem to get either of these pages to load other than the titles, which lead me to believe they might be helpful. |D Maybe you'll have better luck.

Awesome D8 thank you x.x;

I'm still gonna think long and hard about mucking with it though =\
Cause if something goes wrong, then I'm without my only router

And yus, those other two pages did load perfect for me >w< So thank you again <3


one problem though..... how do i find out my IP address x.x *completely computer illiterate*

Assuming you're running windows, go to Start > Run > type cmd and hit ok > this brings up a DOS-like box, type ipconfig and hit enter. It should most likely be some variation of 192.168.1.1

If it isn't in your start menu for some reason, you can hold down the windows button on your keyboard (between Ctrl and Alt) and then press R and it should bring it up as well.

You can also type in ipconfig /all and get all sorts of fun info you probably won't need but at least you'll know. X3

If you aren't running windows, I can't help you there. D:

Yeah I'm running windows (hates mac with a passion)
I got my IP >w<
So thank you, I'll keep you posted about how things go if i do dink around with it ^^;;

(sometimes i hate technology x.x)
My DS requires the follow; (as you may know)

SSID (no clue what that is)
WEP KEY (no clue what that is)
IP Address (got it)
Subnet Mask (got it)
Gateway (got it)
Primary DNS (no clue what that is)
Secondary DNS (no clue what that is)

SSID is whatever you name your network via your router. For example, my network's name/SSID is bacontastesgood. X3
WEP key is what I was mentioning earlier, this is a password for other people to get into your network (not the same as the router password). WEP is a specific type of security. The DLink is WPA security, and the two aren't interchangeable so you would either need a working adapter, or leave the router unsecured (you can do this if you're not worried about neighbors leaching off your network). If the router is unsecured you should be able to just put in your SSID and it should autodetect the rest. I'm not sure though |D I've already got three different wireless spots setup so I don't want to mess with it. X3

You could try rummaging around the wifi support pages and see if they're any help.

XD
I personally have no clue what the SSID is then, or how to go about finding it =\

As for the WEP key, i personally don't mind if people leach off my network. My computer has protection, but if they end up leaching it to the point that it slows my connection down considerably, then I'll go ahead and lock it.

Either way though, the fact of the matter is, that the adapter that i Did buy to allow access to WiFi doesn't work ;~;
It stopped working fairly soon after i got it too ._.

( yeah, my train of thought died ; - ; )

Are there any wireless devices on the network? Laptops, etc. If it's connected you should be able to find out what the SSID is.

Where'd you get the adapter? Aside from getting a new one, or a new router, I'm out of ideas. XD

I got the adapter from wal-mart =\ ($30 if i remember right ._. and it's past the return point)

As for any other devices on the network... No there are none. my DS WAS on the network, but yeah ._. all the info got wiped some how...

I may just go ahead and reset the damn thing tomorrow or something.... o_<
Maybe i can find it through google? *shrugs*

Anywho! Thank you so much for the help x.x Sorry if i was a bother X3

Damn, they finally loaded, and weren't helpful. Buuuuuuttttt now that the pages are loading:

Hopefully that's the right one? :3

yus that is the right one <3
