After a lot of hours, we finally got it working correctly, but at the end we ended buying a wireless router.
Rating: - Great!!!
Great item! Small and fast to install. I have to re-install it every time i want to use it (30 second process) but i think the problem is MY computer. Once ready, i enjoy many hours of fun! Highly recommended.
Rating: - Just a question?
Hey just a question for all you tech savy people its july 26,2008 and i plan on getting this thing today just wondering if it still works even though nintendo discontinued it
Rating: - worked as intended
kinda sucks that you need to download info from the cd on your computer to be able to use the wifi connector, so you can't really take it anywhere. i was hoping to use this at work, since our wifi sucks...but since i can't put anything on my work computers, thats a no go. but at home it worked just fine after putting the cd in.
Rating: - ***Does NOT work with Vista***
I was given one of these as a gift last year, and had a wonderful year playing Animal CrossingWW with friends around the world....until my husband gave me a new computer for our 18th wedding aniversary. Then my little world, with all my friends, disappeared, because it can't be set up to work with Vista and Norton. I have spoken with Nintendo, Gateway, and others about this, and everyone agrees that its a lost cause, and to switch to a wireless router.
This gadget is fantastic, so long as you are playing Win XP. If that is your OS, then go for it, and have fun! But it is not supported by Nintendo, despite their having an 'upgrade' available for Vista users, and they admit its of little help, and tell you go get a wireless router. They no longer make these, and told me they will not be supporting them much longer, because it poses some kind of security risk to users. *sigh*
