And does wifi lag abit?

And what is a friend code?

And (last 1) I have a wireless network, do i still need to get 1 of those usb things?

hullo,

1. not at all, but i've noticed that some "World" games on mario kart lag really bad, but this happens rarely

2. friend codes are codes where you register yourself and your friends so you can easily search and identify them, kinda like a mobile phone number

3. are you sure you're settings on your ds or wireless modem correct? if you have a wireless network, then no need for a usb thingy

Alright, here is what I am going to do and how it is goign to work.

1. If the game supports wifi, it will have a friend code Link.
2. if you click on the friend code link, you will see a list of friendcodes next to usernames and their avatars.
3. if you don't have a friend code, you can add to that list.
4. a subset of the friendcode list will be displayed on the game profile page (you think this is good?)

Nar you dont,

all you have to do is go into a game that supports wifi then go wifi settings and eventually you will arrive at a blue-ish screen just select search for wireless and it should come up with what ever you called your wireless
