- Transmit in mixed mode (DS needs a Wireless B connection)
- Use WEP encrption, or none at all. This is a major security problem.
Really, it's best just to use the adaptor on an XP machine. The alternatives are tricky and problematic at best. This is Nintendo's fault for putting a terrible wireless adaptor in the DS.

Now you've got me confused? Nintendo DS? The post was initially about a Wii (And I have my Wii connected wirelessly using WPA-AES) but bigmac19's last post is asking about x-box live.
A wi-fi cable plugged into USB? Wi-fi is a wireless networking protocol (802.11).
Unless you don't have a router and are talking about using internet sharing through your computer.
I'm confused, I'll back away now.......
