Weird DS wifi problem

[Nekusagi]

All of a sudden, my DS is having apparent issues picking up a wifi signal. Somehow, my DS will take forever to get a signal, sometimes it sporadically disconnects, and sometimes when I'm on voice chat it loses reception.

The weird thing is, it just started acting up Monday during a voice chat. Last Thursday I ALSO voice chatted and it worked fine. Is it the ISP or the router or Nintendo having problems?

This is freaking me out.

EDIT AND UPDATE: I managed to get the Pearl screen logged in for about five minutes, then it disconnected. It goes between green with all bars and then red, and a few of the errors I get start with 6, which seems to mean "the network is screwed up". I've been testing on both Mario Kart and Pokemon Pearl, if it matters.

Again, it worked fine last Thursday.

EDIT AGAIN: it also likes to stay on the connecting screen for a LOOONG time.

SON OF EDIT: Now it's acting borderline normal. As in, as soon as I told it to connect it did so like a good little DS, and it doesn't seem to be disconnecting. So is it a safe assumption I can !blame Nintendo?

It's working fine here (i'm on the other side of the world) What error code are you getting? Enter your error code here:

I don't know if that's the right site for America but it works for me.

I reset the router (turning it off then on) and I think it's solved now (I was able to play a few rounds of Mario Kart). But thanks.

How old is your DS? That may be the problem, but I'm not sure.

I know with my router, if its on too long, wifi on some of my devices such as my PC or DS stops working correctly and when I unplug the router for a while, and plug it back in, problem gets solved (usually)

That solved my problem. Just resetting the thing works.
