Haldrie Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Nintendo actually made a special device that looks like a flash drive that you plug into your computer's USB drive and it will use your compter into a wifi access point for the DS as long as you have a broadband internet connection. It's about $40 but it might be worth it to anyone that doesn't want to mess with setting up a wifi network. You can find it at most gaming stores.

ken_cinder Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 The 3945ABG is a mobile chipset, what is your laptop manufacturer? These chipsets can be, and are, customized by the end distributor and may or may not support SoftAP methods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken_cinder Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Wow, I forgot all about this. You need to enable Ad-Hoc connections for your wireless NIC to act as an access point. In Infrastructure mode, this kind of connection from PSP/DS isn't possible, so enable Ad-Hoc or BOTH if possible in your network card settings.

.HR Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 (edited) Problem is PSP supports AdHoc only for PSP-to-PSP connection. It cannot use AdHoc mode like a bridge to my Notebooks connection.Anyway, what I need, is some kind of driver or software network that could force 3945ABG to work as an infrastructure AP. Sorry englishis not my native so maybe I could write something not quite understandible. Edited August 14, 2007 by .HR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Well the problem you run into there, is if your wireless connection is your internet connection, you aren't going to be able to share the connection to begin with. You can't connect to 2 devices are the same time with 1 wireless network card in infrastructure mode.You either connect ad-hoc between devices (Works like a radio does) or infrastructure, which works on a point-to-point method. Even with SoftAP, you'll need a secondary method of connecting your internet connection to share it with the other device coming in on the AP.

.HR Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 hehe. If my internet connection was wi-fi then Iwould see no reason to retranslate it to PSP. I just could directly connect withmy PSP. My internet connecion comes from a PCMCIA card (mobile operator inside). And I need it retranslated to PSP. And the only way PSP understands it is the infrastructure mode.
