Wifi Setting on Nitendo DS - How To Set Up Wi-Fi on DSi
If you are accessing a locked/encrypted connection, enter your WEP key. You may also click “Change Security Settings” to enter a WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) key.
If your WEP key is correct, your Nintendo DSi should connect. You can test your connection to verify.
You're set! Now you can surf the Internet, purchase games and add-ons in the Nintendo DSi Shop, and play games that allow wireless access and competition (with WEP connections, only).

What You Need
- Turn on the Nintendo DSi
- Click on the wrench icon to access “System Settings.”
- Select “Internet” on the third page of System Settings.
- Select “Connection Settings” and tap the “None” bar in “Connection 1.”
- You have the option of setting up a connection manually, or searching for available connections in the area. You may also access your Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector, if you have one (the product has been discontinued). The easiest thing to do is select “Search for an Access Point.”
- Your Nintendo DSi will list the names of any wireless access points in range. A gold, unlocked icon next to the connection's name signifies an unlocked WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) connection that can be accessed immediately. A locked gold icon signifies an encrypted WEP connection that requires a WEP key (password).
