[TUTORIAL] Guide to Enable WIFI Feature On DeSmuMe v.0.9.7

Thanks, I learned new stuffs here again. Right now, I'm gonna try exporting the save files from desmume to no$gba since I've read it somewhere that no$gba allows connection of two emulators. Hope future desmume versions allow the same thing too.

 

I've been trying to get this to work for THE longest time now, and I have had some success, but it's not what I want.

My connection is as follows- I am connected straight from my cable modem into my Network interface card with Cat 6 ethernet.. The absolutely ONLY way that I could get desmume's wifi to work was to use a virtualbox (emulate an OS inside of my OS via a virtual machine) and run it that way, but I lost some speed- Does any one know wtf could be going on?

 

Thank you for the quick reply prectorian, much appreciated- Even if you didn't have a solution, you gave me something to work with, I have to figure out if I can emulate an infrastructure connection between my PC and the modem.. Hopefully someone else knows about this.

 

OMG!! It worked!! Trading between 2 Desmume (Pokemon white 1 and Pokemon black 2) I'm the happiest person alive right now lol

 

Blast! It's a real bummer that I'm stuck to using a VM, since it really is a pretty big hassle and it takes CPU and RAM to run the VM, though I do have a little to spare, I notice some slow downs, and I'm not sure the connection to the Nintendo WiFi is as good as it should be.

Hey, i'm having another problem. Trading in Wi-Fi club (using Pal Pad) almost work until it kept having error whenever the trade is about to be done. When both of desmume emulators have that message box: "Stopping communication..." it then shows up the error:

Communication Error. Please turn off the power. - After resetting, the pokemons are still with the original trainers. Do have any ideas how to fix this?

 

I solved it. I just have to manually set up the wfc for both emulators. Different IPs but same for the rest (subnet, gateway, dns). Though i still had an error at the end, I received the pokemons right when I reloaded the game.

 

airpcap?

this may help with wireless connections, just needs some setting up, I imagine. either way, I don't have an ethernet cable, so atm no WiFi for me. Which sucks.

Nevermind. For those with wireless connections, bridge connections, and then manually enter numbers and add 10 to the last three digit number in IP

I keep getting 52100 error. keep changing IP/DNS but still doesn't seem to work. weird. I know there is a way because I did manage to connect once.

 

@prectorian

Do you want me to post here the steps I did to connect two desmume?

@quadsas

That's more likely a firmware issue. Try and download a different version and paste it to your Battery folder.

 

I'm getting Error 50000 no idea what to do, been trying for hours.

On the first page I d/l option 5, WinPcap is installed, both BIOS are linked in the right place and firmware. Under config > firmware, the details match what I set in the DS. Firewall is configured to allow.

So I load Pokemon Black 2 and go through WFC settings, searching for Access Point takes like 5secs, I select SoftAP and do the connection test, and this is where I get Error 50000, "No access point in range"

I'm on W7, run as admin is set, net speed is 125Mb, more then capable.

 

has anyone tried this on mac?

 

Ok I am getting something new now, I learned how to properly use the 2 .dfc on page 1, so now I can use the existing connections and can even make new 1's, but when I go into Pokemon Black 2 and use Game Sync I get Error 20100, which is exactly the same as 50000, that it can't find an access point, despite that I tested and even made new connections in WiFi club.
