    It's been about six onths since I last played a game online with my DS Lite. Today I go into my Wi-Fi settign and try to connect, A prompt tell me this: "The access point's security settings are not supported by the Nintendo Ds. For help, visit support.nintendo.com" everyone knows that Nintendo's support is a relaible as Billy May's ability to whisper. if any else has had and sovled this problem please help a Duder out, I want to play Pokemon. (P.M me if you can)

Did you get a new modem or something? As far as I know the DS doesn't support all routers so you're out of luck if that's the case.

do you have a internet key? if it's WPA, it's not supported by the DS.

What kind of encryption does your router have? Unfortunately, the DS Lite only supports WEP keys, not WPA. The DSi supports WPA though, I believe. You might be able to try MAC address or something, but I haven't tried it out myself yet.

security things? then it's likely that your security key isn't supported by the DS lite.  
 
you have to change your internet key to WEP through your router (or something) to connect with the DS. it sucks.
