I got the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector from Gamestop, Wal-mart sometimes has it and it is cheaper. It connects to a USB on your pc and has pretty good range. I can plug it into my pc in my upstairs computer room and go downstairs to the bathroom and it stays connected(ew kinda gross). Now this is the only Wi-Fi setup I ever had, but it works for the DS and Wii. I like it and highly recommend it.

Yea but I have Linksys, which lets me play from the whole house and even from outside a little. The USB is probably more for portability, and is probably cheaper, but it's functionality is only for the DS. If you include home networking, I highly reccomend Linksys.

I have none of that with the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector and it can be used by DS and the Wii. I can also use it outside on my front and back porch. Has an easy to follow disc setup and then to connect to the Wi-Fi program you just do a connection test(which is on any game that uses the Wi-Fi like Pokemon) and your good. I had to tweak mine a bit once I changed virus protection and firewall, but nothing major.

and well i could agree with you guys on what should said about linksys yes its kinda good coz when im in my aunties house thats the connection but its not our connection its the neighbors connection when we I first used NETGEAR it didnt really work it only works for some people not all but when i go to my aunts house linksys is really good but its kinda hard connecting to it can somebody please explain whats wrong with my NETGEAR coz it says something about a firewall problem could somebody help i really need help on this thnx alot to everyone who will help me

if its just ur pokemon diamond having trouble connecting then either u need to open ports on ur router (services -> firewall settings) or there is something in the wireless settings stopping ur DS from connecting (WEP and so on..)
