Pokemon Heart Gold Wi-Fi On Nintendo DSi

The Nintendo DSi can connect to Wi-Fi, but my Pokemon Heart Gold can not.  I try to connect to my Wi-Fi Connection called "Bjarne".  It has a password.  But whenever I select the connection, I get this-

 

The Access point's security settings are not supported by the Nintendo DS.  For help, visit support.nintendo.com.

 

 

Anyone tell what what to do?

PLAYERSHAUN, your router has a security setting that isn't compatible to the Nintendo DSi. So, I assume that the security setting your are using is WPA or WPA2. I suggest that you change it to WEP, the only security setting that can be enabled while playing online Nintendo games.

 

For more information about online connectivity for the DSI please click here.

 

Hope this helps

Yes, the DSi can access more secure connections. But DS games can not.

The procedures for changing your security from WPA to WEP will vary depending on your router.

 

To lookup our router information, click here and select your router (if available).
