Reddit reviews Nintendo DS Wi-Fi USB Connector

Are you taking about this thing?

Do you happen to have a n,a,or c router because those are not compatible with the 3DS? You should ask your service provider or look your router up online. Worst case you have to buy this http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-DS-Wi-Fi-USB-Connector/dp/B000MXMNG4/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1373136176&sr=1-1&keywords=nintendo+wifi+usb+connector

Yeah, there are. Although that one is ridiculously expensive, i got mine for $25.00 at toysRus a few years back so i could play animal crossing with my friends (this was before DSi). If you search Ebay im sure you could get one, or even if you go searching around at best buy or walmart you might be able to get one.

High price aside... do these things still work with the 3DS?

I remember when I was in college back in 2004 I needed to buy one of these to get my DS connected to WiFi since it was not an authorized device or something like that.

Edit: looks like it does not work with the New 3DS Lineup, but works with the old ones

Well, I heard that you can also use Nintendo's USB Wifi connector thingy™ to connect, but you may also consider a cheaper alternative.

Nintendo DS systems are fishy about wireless networks. I'd suggest going over to /r/techsupport or a related subreddit, considering this is more about networking than pokemon. I don't know if they still exist, but there's a device called a Wireless USB adapter or something. You plug it into a USB port and it connects to the internet through your computer.

nintendo products do not play nice with the RPI wireless. I believe the only work around is a USB wifi adapter-ish thing ($99 from nintendo, not sure if there is a cheaper option http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-DS-Wi-Fi-USB-Connector/dp/B000MXMNG4).

Not sure if its really allowed because it acts like a mini wireless router... I think it should be ok because the signal strength is so weak

One of these?:

Gamestop (yeah, yeah, I know, I know) has them used sometimes.

Ask the kid at the counter. Usually they can check inventory at surrounding stores too. They are getting hard to find though.

You could pick up the Nintendo 3DS Wifi Adapter if you have a connected PC nearby:
