    Hi all,

    I am just curious as to if there is a way to make WiFi on my DS to work with WPA2 security? my building changed the security from WEP to WPA2 and i couldn't get online any longer.

    (getting the nintendo wifi usb is not an option)

    No, it has to be WEP. A bad decision by Nintendo.

    Nintendo may eventually release a firmware update that allows the use of WPA, and in fact, if they have any sense at all, they will as a priority. WPA2 uses a more complex encryption algorithm and thus requires more powerful hardware; meaning that WPA2 support cannot be added with a firmware update.
