Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector, This thing really is annoying...

[Explosive Shroom]

Okay, here's the deal. I'd really love to be able to connect and play with people here on MFGG, but the USB Connector DOES. NOT. WORK. Several times, I reinstalled and installed the program for it, but no matter what, when the DS was testing for a connection, it gave me error code 52033, (or something along those lines), "IP Address cannot be obtained." Then, I turned the firewalls off on my computer and reinstalled it, but this time it said "Internet Connection Sharing error," and the Connector program failed to install. Am I doing something wrong? I'd appreciate the help, so anyone that uses the USB (or doesn't but has an idea what's wrong), please pitch in. I looked on other forums to see that others had these problems, but... nothing they said seemed to work.

I'm getting something similar. The program installed and everything, but it says it's "connected to access point but unable to connect to the server"

what. WHAT. ARGH. I PAYED 40 BUCKS FOR THIS PIECE FO S**T, I EXPECT IT TO WORK

if you have any antivirus software, that might be the problem. I think you need to add the nintendowifi to its allow thing. atleast thats what I did with norton.
