First of all, you need a Nintendo DS. Nintendo DS is a handheld gaming console created by Nintendo and is mainly used to play games. You can find it at any store selling video-games for about US $130. There currently are two versions of the Nintendo DS, the normal one (often called Fat) and the newer Nintendo DS Lite. Since the Nintendo DS Lite has a better screen, that preferred for use with Colors!.

You have the ability to transfer your Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID to another Nintendo DS. This is usefull if you have purchased another Nitendo DS system (such as those who want to purchase the newer Nintendo DS Lite), and means you won't have to worry about getting new Friend Codes or losing your Wi-Fi Connection stats. Click here to go to Wi-Fi support step-by-step instructions on transfering a Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID to another Nintendo DS or DS Lite.

Limit the number of DHCP addresses to the number of wireless access points that you will be using. Optionally, set static IP addresses, set to non-standard network blocks. Consider using VPN, SSL, Firewalls, RADIUS, Kerberos or other access control, or end-to-end encryption. Most of these can be integrated into your 802.11b appliance.

The campus wireless network can handle hundreds of users logged in at any one time, but the more active users, the slower the network becomes. On average, one access point can handle approximately 30 users without a noticeable degradation in performance.

Out of the box, a Nintendo DS can only run games and programs licensed by Nintendo. All games and programs go through a certification process to make sure they live up to the standard expected of a Nintendo DS game. While this is a good thing, it also means that you normally can?t run programs not endorsed by Nintendo. Making your Nintendo DS homebrew allows you to run programs not licensed or endorsed by Nintendo.

There are a few different ways to make your Nintendo DS homebrew enabled but the easiest is to buy a thing called a DS Slot-1 flash-carts. This looks and works just like a normal Nintendo DS game but with the difference that you can connect it to a computer to manage what it contains.

The best thing you can do is to transfer your WFC settings from your old DS to your new one. You can do this by starting "Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam" in your old DS and selecting "Wireless" from the main menu, then "Settings", then "Nintendo WFC Setup". From here select "Options", then "Transfer Nintendo WFC Configuration". Follow the instructions shown to transfer your account to your new DS.

Beginning in the Winter of 2005, Nintendo DS owners around the world started to play some of their favorite franchises via Wi-Fi. Mario Kart DS, Animal Crossing DS and a new Tony Hawk title from Activision were among the first using the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, a groundbreaking portable, wireless gaming network.

No. The Wireless Network was established to facilitate mobile, wireless computing where the emphasis is on availability of networking assets in a dynamic environment. Fixed IP address assignment runs counter to this purpose

Probably. Any wireless receiver supporting the industry standard 802.11b or 802.11g protocols should work. However, in rare cases, we have found wireless receivers which had compatibility issues with the computer upon which it was installed.

Emphatically not. Netstumbler is a good and courteous listener. It only records those elements of data that the access point (AP) makes public. It has no machinery for sniffing packets, reverse-engineering passwords, or even connecting to an unprotected network. Furthermore, NetStumbler respects the wishes of network owners in terms of the public visibility of their networks: If the owner of an AP disables the AP's beacon broadcast, NetStumbler will not detect it.

No. The best solution to this problem if you must print immediately is to transfer your document to a floppy or USB flash drive and bring the disk or drive to the Academic Technology lab on the ground floor of the library for printing.

If you are using web-based mail, then the answer is yes. For security reasons many non-standard Internet ports are blocked on the wireless network, so non-web-based email will not work. We recommend that you do not try to download large email attachments or run streaming media over the wireless network.

A wireless network is a Local Area Network (LAN) that replaces wires and cables with radio frequency (RF) connections. Wireless networks have a relatively small coverage area, between zero and 300 feet per radio transceiver depending upon the surrounding building structure. Wireless networks give you the freedom to access the Internet, email, instant messaging services and your company's network anywhere within the signal coverage area.

We have different wireless areas on campus that can be used by students. The main academic building, library, theatre arts center, student center and some outdoor areas on campus provide wireless network access. The network is accessible with the wireless standard of 802.11b, as well as 802.11g in specific areas.
